I live at Parc and I do walk across the street to the center. It is very dangerous walking across the street dodging cars. Please, we need something!!

Dear Councilman and all other Representatives: I have experienced many rough times exiting the Parc Apartments especially during the peak hours. There is just too much traffic in both directions. It is very dangerous to exit onto Plymouth Road. Sometimes, I have to go over into the Cold Point Station Village. Most of the time, I have problems crossing the road to and from Station Village. I have to wait until traffic slows down which could take several minutes.I agree with all suggestions that was discussed to alleviate this dangerous situation. Thank you for your consideration.

I am in agreement with both the immediate and future suggestions set forth in the petition. I am sure that a traffic study had to have been conducted when the Parc development was presented to the appropriate governmental bodies, and said study must have projected the amount of traffic increase due to the development of Parc. Was the study fallacious in its conclusions or did the final approved plan ignore the need for traffic calming at a minimum? With a CVS coming soon, ingress and egress discussion regarding that development is paramount.

I currently live at Parc. It is extremely difficult to make a left turn out of the complex. A 4 way stop would be fantastic. Better walkability would be nice. We need to have safe finished sidewalks.

Having the access road open (for right turns only) would be an immediate improvement while installation of stop sign and lights at the Parc/Cold Point intersection is considered and implemented.

Turning left out of Parc in even moderate traffic is difficult and dangerous. In rush hour traffic it is nearly impossible to do this safely.

The traffic at Plymouth Rd and Butler Pike is horrendous. Trying to make a left turn out of PARC apartments or a right from Cold Point is nearly impossible during rush hour. Trying to cross the street during a walk I is extremely dangerous

I am 17 years old. I got my license in October 2015 and it is very difficult /scary for me to go out of the complex. I feel that I do not have enough time between cars and am scared that I will be in an accident.
