I was nearly hit by a car today. I couldn't get across the intersection fast enough during the walk light and the driver going through the intersection didn't see me and I didn't see him. I don't see how anyone walking could get across it either. The intersection doesn't have islands where you can stop between the the four lanes of traffic (two lanes going each way) and all four lanes were exremely busy.You also have to cross right/left turn lanes that angle off before the lights. I'd go to the next intersection but I'd have to ride on the street because there is no sidewalk or bike lane.
I'm thinking of calling the city and asking them if they could make the walk lights longer. I like to ride there because it has some of my favorite stores. It's beautiful ride 10 mile ride from my house and almost totally on trails.The trail actually turns into a sidewalk near the intersection. I suppose I could start taking the car again. But if anyone has advice please tell me.
