Dangerous Intersection Queen and James
From "Street Safety Concerns"
Go to the project
The pedestrian crosswalk on the North side of the Queen/James intersection is nearly uncross-able between the hours of 6am-10am. The hospital workers are lined up to turn left or right onto Queen from James and have no regard for pedestrians crossing. I've reached out to the hospital to raise my concern, but they never respond. I've had to stop walking or fully jump out of the way to avoid getting hit by a driver who's not paying attention. We need a red turn arrow during those hours. When I try and get driver's attention they often times get hostile and aggressive.

I agree. Most of the intersections there are people trying to turn and they only look for vehicles, not pedestrians. Unfortunately, the city is still not very walker friendly. I would love to see more of the one side is green, then the other side, instead of the arrows that mean you are fighting for turns. I know it would add a new light cycle but it is important that we save lives and prevent pedestrians from getting hit.
