Description
There is construction going on under the 52 bridge that cuts off a section of sidewalk that goes to the traffic signal further down the street towards St. Paul. We are not allowed to walk through the construction and therefore have to cross a very busy street- especially at rush hour times. It can take upwards of ten minutes for a gap in the cars-especially in the morning. There is a sign that notes that this is supposed to be a crosswalk, but drivers either don't see it or don't care. It would be great if we could get some kind of traffic control at this juncture until the sidewalk is finished by the construction crew. This is a major inlet for people living in the neighborhoods over the Kellogg bridge, and is also quite inconvenient for commuters that park and have to walk into St. Paul.
Thanks

Ok, Perhaps I spoke too soon. While I do appreciate the sign that was put up. NO ONE driving on this road pays any attention to it. I suppose this is more of a person problem than a city problem, but the crosswalk is essentially in the same state as it was before. Perhaps a larger sign about stopping for pedestrians in the crosswalk is in order. I'm not sure and I hear the construction will be over soon, so again thanks for the response, but be aware no one driving cares all that much.
Thanks,
Chris
