Walk Pleasant Valley

Let's build a safer roundabout

The 31st and Fontanero roundabout can improve traffic flow without making it harder to cross the street. We’re asking the city for two simple things:1. Pedestrian-activated flashing lights2. Raised crosswalks

1. Sign our List of Supporters

Add your name to our list of neighbors to show your support for raised crosswalks and pedestrian-activated flashing lights that can help make it safer for people walking through Pleasant Valley.

2. Email the City's Project Team

Email the project team and ask them to include additional pedestrian safety measures.It only takes a few minutes, and we’ve made it easy. Use our sample email or write your own.Email the City →
