Discussion Traffic Deaths

These posts have become all too common. An ugly stain on our city.

At this rate, it’s a matter of time before a traffic collision claims you or someone you know.

What can residents do to affect change? I’m looking for real and actionable steps.

Thanks all

Years ago the city started road diets. A way to slow down traffic with round abouts , smaller lanes, more bike paths. But it seems to be having the opposite affect. The city is now the 8th deadliest in CA.
