My name is Joe and I live on Rosewood Drive, off Thornell near East Street.

I’m concerned with pedestrian safety on Thornell...specifically the bend in the road between Oak Leaf and Pine Needles Drive. Without a sidewalk or other safety alternative, it is risky to navigate that bend on foot. As a result, my family has curtailed a favorite activity - walking trips to the basin for coffee, breakfast, shopping, and just sitting by the canal.

Starting back in 2010, I’ve been petitioning town leadership on my own. With your signature, I hope together we can encourage town leadership to give the following request consideration & priority:

Ideally a continuation of sidewalk from Southern Woods Drive to Rt96 or at the very least, a solution for the bend in the road between Oak Leaf and Pine Needles Drive.

Thank you for joining this petition.
