Description
There is no cross light or path to cross busy, congested Michigan Ave. when people get off the bus and are trying to cross the street, from either direction. I risk my life everyday trying to cross, especially at night!

The City generally does not install marked crosswalks on multi-lane roadways except at signalized intersections and signal installation is prioritized based on need and budget. For this location to meet the requirements of signalization, there would need to be a minimum of 100 pedestrians crossing at this location each hour for a minimum of 4 hours on a typical day. Available information indicates that this location doesn't currently meet these requirements. Signals are available, however, two blocks either way, at Clemens and Foster. We will look at this location to determine if there are sidewalk ramp or visibility issues that need to be addressed.
