emergency services benefit;

Re: Preferred Alternative for West Martin Luther King Jr. Street Corridor
Enhancement project, PIN 395050
Based on our conversation about this topic at your last meeting, please find enclosed a
resolution selecting an alternative to be the preferred alternative for the
abovementioned project. This preferred alternative will be selected for the design repo
and then, , 1, 1 -I
pro es -n 'led d I te-d- t ilp-4
My recommendation is to select Alternative 2 as the preferred option, with some
modifications which can be developed in final design. These modifications are listed
below, after my reasoning for Alt 2. My recommendation comes after a public open
house, written 3..-ubhc comment,.. which is attached to this memo conversations with
staff and reflection.
As much as I like the concrete barrier protection of Alternative 1, similar to the Cayuga
Waterfront Trail design on the Buffalo Street bridge, I don't think it works as well in
this context. Because there is no trail extending along MLK Jr. Street and due to the
three driveways between the bridge and Brindley Street, the barrier protected shared
use path doesn't work as well as on the CWT. For safety reasons, we are required to
protect the western end of the barrier, either with guiderail or with a crash attenuator.
The rail would make entering the shared use path from the western end challenging
and somewhat awkward. A crash attenuator is expensive (on the order of $30,000) and
presents a maintenance responsibility and cost that we may not be prepared to absorb.
Also, with the waterfront trail barrier., there is still a 4 foot shoulder on the traffic 6A-4zi
that a person on a bicycle not using the trail still has a decent space to ride. In this case,
we can only provide a 2 or 3 ft offset from the driven lane to the barrier; this doesn�t
accommodate a person ng down Hector Street and continuing eastbound very well.
With some modifications, Alternative 2 will carry bike lanes through the length of the
corridor, will provide two significantly enhanced pedestrian crossings, will address
vehicular safety concerns at Brindley, Seneca, MLK,and Pete's driveway, and will
provide a 10 ft wide sidewalk on the south side of the bridge, allowing for plenty of

My current running/walking/biking route from Brindley St to the waterfront trail is on the
sidewalk on the south side of the flood control bridge so that I do not have to cross MLK Jr St.
Yes, I do bike on the sidewalk and if a ped is on the sidewalk, I dismount and walk the bike.
My preferred option for access to the waterfront trail is a ped/multi-use bridge over the flood
control channel from the end of Cecil Malone, but I'll keep waiting.

As someone who walks along this section of road to get to school every day, I think that a
n-Lixed use trail would be the most useful option. Also, if there was a stoplight or something to
slow down traffic at the end of floral ave that would make it much easier to cross the road.
Sometimes I have to wait for 10-15 minutes before cars stop and I'm able to cross the road.
Tftri,
I agree with the proposed improvements particularly for pedestrians. But framing them as
improvements is a little off base with reality. Right now there is next to nothing aiding

now if Is J -walking. But it's gives one the best view of on -coming auto traffic in both directions.
And maxin-dses the visibility for drivers to see pedestrians.
The one thing that don't like about the 2 proposals and am totally against is locating a traffic
light at the 13A, 79 and W. State interesection. Having a traffic light at the bottom of this hill in
this climate is dangerous, made worse by the curve that 79 makes just above the intersection.
The traffic light would have cars piling up behind each other on the hill. When the roads are
wet and slippery from rain and snow and cars are coming down a steep incline with curves I
believe more accidents will be the result, beyond creating a white knuckle situation. This puts
pedestrians at the bottom of the hill more risk as well.
Regarding bikes, I grew up riding bikes freely through -out small and large cities. I appreciate
the desire and for many the need to bike. But I think Ithaca is being somewhat manipulated by
the demands of bikers.
Why, well primarily because we have hills which detour many persons, including myself from
biking as a daily means of transportations. That said, I don't think making bike -ways is a bad
thing� I �ust don't support bike traffic that hinders or causes unsafe situations for cars. Driving in
Ithaca is already a frustrating experience because of our one way street and octopus
intersectio,ts.

It is my observation that while the changes you�ve already made to West Buffalo Street may be
helpful to walkers and bikers, they have slowed automobile traffic often to stop and go making
long waits to drive into Ithaca. In other words, this is a mediocre solution to the safety and
access problems for Rte. 96.

2. With the intention of making this area safer for people walking and biking why would we
want to increase the design speed from 31ph for cars? Pedestrian death rate increases
exponentially between 30mph and 40mph and people drive based on design speed not speed

different speeds.

Thank you very much for your reply to David's concerns. I only have two comments on your
re%Lp- and it has to do with personal ex%gjj� in to navi,,
qate this area on bike and
First you are correct that the current speed limit posted is 30 mph and that designing to 35 mph
is in accordance with NYSDOT guidelines but with any roadway design there is always a 5
mph higher safety factor built in, therefore if you design for 35 the average speed will be 40.
What I think David is asking for is to design for 30 that way it will slow traffic enough to allow
for safe walking and ng.
Second and this is based on my personal experience in fl -ds area as recently as yesterday; the
existing crosswalk placement on Floral Ave and at the bottom of Hector Street don't provide
pedestrians with good sight lines for safe crossing. I will give you more input tomorrow.
Unfortunately the meeting starts before I leave work therefore I may miss the public comment
session. If you are open to comments later in the meeting that will be very helpful.
Thank you,
Steven Williams
I fully agree with Steven and David that it would be an engineering mistake to further
encourage speeding on this corridor. NYSDOT Guidelines are NOT mandates. We need a street
designed at 30mph to meet the safety needs of ALL users, including people driving, not focus
only on the motor vehicle "Level of Service" engineering term, which forgets about all other
street users. Design speed of 35mph is LESS pedestrian friendly as a design speed of 30mph.
"Engineers are well-suited to constructing roads." A road just connects two places, "On a
street, we're attempting to grow the complex ecosystem that produces community wealth. In
these environments, people (outside of their automobile) are the indicator species of success."
Fulton (so-called) Street, completely fails as a street, it's a highway. Dryden (so-called) Road is a
very successful street, esp. throughCollegetown.
"Engineers are not good at building streets nor, I would argue, can the typical engineer readily
become good at it. Streets that produce wealth for a community are complex environments.
They do not lend themselves well torote standards or even design guidelines. There are
numerous variables at play that interact with each other, forming feedback loops and changing
in ways that are impossible to predict."
We need to challen- e these foolish car -centric *dehnes from
tell us 30mph is a safe speed for College Ave and the 100 block of N Aurora St.) and not see
them as mandates for every project in Ithaca.

Daniel Keough
I add my thanks to that of others, Tim, for your thorough response. And I add my vote for
reducing lane width as much as possible in order to lower driving speeds and improve the
experience for walking and biking. Maybe using the minimum width allowed should be a
policy of the City, given what we know about the® a of lane width and driving speed.
I like David's suggestions above, though I'm not sure they or in regards to to your question
about what to do w/ the narrow 39 ft space with 3 lanes. Here are some other options:
• Do 3 10' lanes for cars, and split the 9 feet for 4.5'bike lanes.
• Add the 4.5to make the sidewalks into shared use paths
• Get rid of the three car lanes in that section and use the extra 10 or ll' to make really nice
walking and biking environments!
• just continue with David's ideas of 51anes ora good buffered westbound lane, and in
the narrow part just use the dashed line bike lane that the LAB guy spoke about piloting
in another city
So many options...

Bicycles
> I support the "Add westbound bike lane and widen south sidewalk to create multi -use path"
option on TYP-Al.
- This bridge is popularly used by LACS students, aged 11-18, going to and from school and
during lunch breaks. Providing a physical barrier on the south side will create an added feeling
of safety to pedestrians and cyclists, and limit the likelihood of interactions with
automobiles. This improves the physical environment for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians, and
creates a promenade -like feel along the water.
- Cyclists coming down Hector will want to get onto the multi -use path to cross the bridge
and will want to enter at the intersection rather than go around any barrier. This will require a
curb cut and opening in the barrier to allow entry, and may create confusion as to if it is ok for
pedestrians to cross Hector/ MLK at the Floral intersection.
- I see that PLN -Al -A involves a traffic light at the intersection with Floral. If so, and if a curb
cut is added to allow bike access to the rnulti-use trail, then perhaps put a crosswalk on the
eastern side of the Floral intersection would be preferable compared to the eastern side of the
bridge?
- The physical barrier may have the added benefit of reducing noise emanating from the
bridge.

> I prefer having the entry to Ithaca Grain and Feed be a rive y®® design (PLN -Al -2)

® I believe drivers, upon seeing an entry that is designed like a road, will expect that it is a
road that will take them somewhere. A driveway gives a clear message that this entry serves a
property and is not a roadway to connect to another road.
- This will reduce confusion and increase safety by indicating to drivers that they should drive
slowly rather than accelerate into a turn.
- A driveway does not require curbing and striping, and will be less expensive.
W Seneca at Pete's
> Thank you for making the intersection more of a T-junction design rather than the current

- This gives pedestrians more visibility to drivers, and gives the indication that this is a stop

element is used at Ithaca ra® it will provide clear indication to the driver to turn left or right.

First Ward Alderperson
Good mornin& Tim,
I think the second alternative is the better choice. I worry that the combined bike/pedestrian
lane proposed in the first alternative could lead to problems between fast moving bikes and
pedestrians, strollers, shopping carts, etc. Having a bike come up fast from behind can be scary,
and sometimes dangerous.
The second choice not only keeps bikes and pedestrians separate, but would eliminate the need
for a (ugly) barrier. A new traffic signal at the bottom of the bill will most likely calin motor
traffic to a large degree, so bikes and pedestrians will be better protected in that sense. no
removal may be less problematic(?).
Also, Alternative 2 can be modified to widen the side walk on the north side of the bridge, if
fimds allow. In my opinion, this would enhance the project considerably, as many people use
this side to walk on. With a light at the bottom of Hector St., more people walking to Pete's from
Floral and Elm Sts. are likely to cross the bridge on the or side. An 8ft. / 7ft. split in
sidewalk width between the south and or sides of the bridge' a of 10ft. / 5ft.?
As for the area around current Brindley St, I prefer the second alternative here as well. I think
it will be important to remember that traffic going to the pet food store and trucks making
deliveries out back of there are better off staying as separate as possible. Pet people don't want
to wait as a truck is unloaded. Truckers don't want to have to unload as cars roll through where
they are working.
I strongly encourage you to seek feedback on this section of the project from all the adjacent
businesses. Many may be adversely affected, at least at first. Ithaca Grain will no longer be on
the back way to Wegmans when the new Brindley St. bridge opens. Trombley Tire's parking
space and maneuvering room around their lot will be squeezed on both the east and west
sides. I think perhaps the bike path approach to the old Brindley St. bridge may be better
routed through the green space bump -out directly west of the new Brindley St. intersection
with West MLK /State St. TI -ds may give Trombley a little more room.

Reducing the auto lanes over the Rte. 79 bridge over the inlet is being proposed to provide for a
bicycle lane. Also being proposed are traffic lights at the bottom of Hector Street. Tim Logue,
the city engineer, sometimes takes a lot of heat for proposals. This e-mail is not in that spirit but
I do still have some serious concerns. When the "Octopus" was re -done, the Route 96 and 79
bridges both had four lanes with pedestrian walkways on both sides. That was purposeful and
lanes should not be re -purposed casually (and I assume Tim would not do that). 'Ihe Route 96
bridge has had one lane made into a bicycle -pedestrian lane. That has worked pretty well, in
my opinion, because the right hand lane had been one to turn on to a short street with a few
houses. The Route 79 bridge is a different story.
This corridor, as Cynthia says, is "one of the main arterial routes into/ out of West Hill." It is
Aso one of the main commuter routes into and out of the City of Ithaca. It connects the city
with Rte. 79, going out to Mecklenberg, and with Floral Ave. (13A), which is increasingly used
by those who want to bya-pass Route 13. It is increasingly busy. Route 13A has a number of
new developments, mostly put in by INHS. This is part of the reason for increased vehicular
and pedestrian traffic. Also, I am told by Cynthia, there is increased pedestrian and bicycle
traffic from West Hill's Lehman Alternative Community School (LACS) on school days. We
need to add in the n-dx of a new era in which drivers are increasingly distracted by cell
phones. It is, of course, technically illegal for drivers to use cell phones - but the reality is that
they do on occasion and sometimes with tragic consequences. In an area like the one being
discussed here, using a cell phone for even a second can result in tragedy. Finally, in to my
surprise, I have come to realize that some commuters use connectinS-with-R-,zwk%M&e--
"safety valve" to get downtown faster if traffic is backed up on 96, particularly in heavy
commuting hours, say, around 7:15-930 a.m. At those
easily be backed up halfway to the hospital!
h-dtially I was opposed to the new bicycle lane. However, upon discussing it with Cynthia, I
have come to understand better why it is being proposed. I also understand that widening the
bridge altogether is cost prohibitive. I do wish that a cantilevered pedestrian/bicyclist bridge
had been considered for this inlet crossin , and wonder Blpr it was not at least discussed in the
proposal sent out by the city engineer. Also, I wonder if just having lights installed at the
bottom of Hector, without closing a lane, has been seriously considered. Might not the lights
themselves be enough to pace traffic and slow it down to provide the necessary increased
safety?
I believe that only lights will slow people down, pace traffic, and allow cornmuters from West
Hill's residential area to get onto to Route 79 from side streets, including Elm Street Extension
and Floral Avenue. I don't particularly care for lights but in some cases they are effective and
helpful. The use of 79 has grown so much that this is one of those cases. I think we do need to
think seriously, however, about the "delay time" this will cause for commuters. How far up
Hector Street will traffic be delayed? Will people on Hector Street and other side streets have
significant trouble merging with Route 79 traffic Monday through Friday during heavy
commuting times? I believe they will and that reducing the eastbound lanes on the Route 79
bridge from two to one with exacerbate that. What I would suggest is another set of lights on 79
further up the hill - say at the Warren and 79 intersection or at Sunrise and 79 - to start to pace
traffic into the city. When people come into the city from Route 79, they are velocitized (used to
going fast). A set of lights - similar to those on East and South Hills - would help pace traffic
and allow West Hill residents to get down the hill on Route 79. This second set of lights up the
hill on 79 is what could allow traffic to flow better given the removal of an eastbound lane
across the bridge. A light only at the bottom of Hector Street is probably going to make things
harder for West Hill residents. Personally, I think Hector Street is overdue for such traffic -
gating sets of lights. This is a situation where lights can help more than they hinder.
� o�nsf-d-er-a-Ho—n-ld-r--div—ersity needs should be part of this redesign of problematic intersections on
route 79. It is important that the re -do of these intersections take in the diversity of population
that goes through them. Not everyone, for example, can bicycle into the city and the population
that uses these intersections is not all in the "twenties." I hope the re -do will provide a better
way for them. And the "bicycle lobby" does themselves no favors by insisting that people are
too old (ageism), too fat, and use too many fossil fuels, etc.- that folks ought to give up cars
altogether. Bicycle commuting might work for some but it does not work for everybody. And
while East Hill has a large student population, West Hill does not. We have people from all age
and income groups, which is also true of those commuting into the city. That is a good thing. I
These are just my thoughts. It is a significant re -configuration of this set of route 79
intersections and I wanted to at least have them on the record. Thank you for the work you do
for the city, Tim! And thank you, Cynthia, George, and Anne for discussing this with me. Now
it is a beautiful day out there - I am now going to make use of the sunshine by hanging out my
laundry!

I have attempted to review the plans for the MLK corridor, but since I missed the public
meeting while I was out of town, so they are a bit confusing. But from what I can tell, there is an
option with a protected walkway rather than a bike lane, and I would feel more comfortable
with my child going to school on his bike on a pedestrian path than on a bike lane on a major
street. I really just want the safest option for kids who need to get to school during rush hour
traffic when people are not very attentive to the needs of pedestrians.
Thanks!

I live on the West side, and travel this roadway every day. From my daily experience, it seems
to me that reducing traffic lanes from 4 to 3 is absolutely the wrong way to look at this issue. I
agree with the goal of improving pedestrian safety, but improving the situation for 220
pedestrians but negatively impacting 16,000 vehicles per day does not make sense to
me. Widening the pedestrian traffic routes "out" over the water, or adding an pedestrian
overpass while maintaining at least two lanes each way would be my preferred solution.

Corrections to the report.
4 Visual assets. The report says the project has no visual assets. Not so: Immediately to
the west are dramatic cliffs with a lovely gorge, waterfalls, and a stone wall on either
side of the entrance to a stone stairway. The view south on Cayuga Inlet is of a large
expanse of water which is frequently decorated with birds or people rowing. The wa
is framed by parklike lands on either side, with forested hills in the distance. In w, t
there may ice, ever-changing, sometimes with a snow cover and animal tracks. Many

It
e
people, including the authors of the report, seem unaware of these wonderful views.,
Lj
With a widened walkway or multi -use path, people can more comfortably stop to enj
the views without being in the way of fellow travelers. This project will enhance
appreciation of the visual assets.
0 Snow storage. The report says new walkways can be used for snow storage. This is
3
offensive to pedestrians. We are widening the walkways because they have heavy use
by local residents year round. People who walk still have to walk, even when ere's
snow. , only it's horrible when the walkway is not cleared, and even worse w1ht hea
packed salted snow & slush is thrown onto the walkway. The City policy, according to
Plan Ithaca, to prioritize pedestrian travel first, should at minimum keep sidewalks as
clear as roads, not pretend it's okay to take all the snow cleared from the path of motor
vehicles and put it in the way of pedestrians (who are priority #1) & bike riders (who
priority #2). Where the City plows the walkways there needs to be more effort to keep
them clear, earlier and oftener.
Blocked sightfines. The report says there are no sightline problems at the 13A & 79
intersection. Not so. Turning left from Floral to Hector one cannot, from the stop line,
see westbound through -traffic on State from far enough away, when it is approacdhing
typical traffic speed on this street, to safely proceed. Pulling forward in order to see
better gets in the way of left -turning traffic from State to Floral which currently has
priority over traffic from Floral. This makes the left turn from 13A to 79 difficult.
However, if westbound traffic on State were stopped at a stop line at the intersection
with Floral, then that conflicting traffic would be easy to see from Floral. This is one of
the big reasons to have an all -way stop or a traffic signal at this intersection.
Choices to make in the project:
• The crosswalk at the end of Hector should be kept.
• A crosswalk at the end of Floral should be added.
• A crosswalk at the end of State should be added.
• All crosswalks should have zebra stripes so they are more visible, and they stay visible
longer.
• The zebra stripes should be equal in width to the spaces between them.
• Wider zebra -striped crosswalks are best because they are more visible to approaching
drivers at a greater distance.
• Crosswalks at the intersections of West Seneca and State should also be zebra -
striped.
• If there is neither an all -way stop nor a traffic signal at the Floral/Hector/State
intersection, then the Hector crosswalk should be a raised crosswalk. This would caust
traffic both eastbound and westbound to go more slowly and may increase the
likelihood that drivers would respect pedestrians trying to use this crosswalk.
It is important to have a 5' eastbound bike lane or 4' usable shoulder because on State
there is no hill to propel riders to motor traffic speed.

• I support widening the sidewalk on Floral to become a multi -use trail between guard
rails. (1he report erroneously says this Floral sidewalk is Ywide but it is Twide.)
• Please connect the Floral Avenue Mulfi-use Trail from the south directly to the widened
Floral sidewalk going to the bridge. Note the worn area already used by people where
pavement is needed, a triangle to continue the NW -SE connection. Following the current
pavement requires two severe jogs.
• The large sign on Floral showing all the state routes should be moved a short distance to
allow the improved connection.
I support inclusion of a mid -block crosswalk with a pedestrian -activated stop light. If -
ctive �atstr traffic, it will be effective
e
at keeping pedestrians off the street and out of the bike lanes.
It should be easy for westbound bike idto. a - the crosswalk so they can get

Avenue multi -use trail or to the Cayuga Waterfront Trail.
I support bending both the legs of West Seneca to meet State at more of a right angle.
Drivers will be more likely to stop completely and to look for, see, and yield to
pedestrians and bike riders before turning.
It would be safer to have fewer driveways across the multi -use trail to State Street. Just
Teresa's both should instead use their access from the stub of West
Seneca. Drivers to the Signworks building should also use the Seneca Street stub to
access their parking lot. That motor traffic should be concentrated instead on the West
Senecastub.
It should neither be like a road, nor like a typical driveway.
I support moving the north end of Old Brindley eastward away from the sightline-
blocking Signworks building to meet State at more of a right angle.

I support moving the driveway to Pete's westward to separate it from the intersection
with the main part of West Seneca Street.
I support making a single center lane dedicated to left turning traffic, for turns to Floral
west of the mid -block crossing and for turns to Pete's east of the mid -block crossing. This
will make State safer because drivers will stop suddenly shifting lanes to pass.

• Bike lanes should continue both directions on State to the end of this project at
Taughannock Boulevard. If motor lanes cannot be narrowed to 10', then the south cur
should be moved south 2' so that there can be three 11' motor lanes and two 5' bike
lanes.
• At the Taughannock intersection there should be a bike box for riders to turn leI
ft or
access the left lane to continue straight on State.
• A future project on State to the east of Taughannock should include a bike lane betwe
the eastbound through lane and the right-turn-ordy lane.

• Too many one way streetsM Adds to congestion and confusion to out of towners
• Bike lanes are great - would serve as a barrier for ped traffic on sidewalk,

would feel it's OK for them to ride bikes with this option. [I don't know who wrote this;

As a biker, crossing the river with the current situation is disconforting with cars
moving quickly. Why not have both bike lanes if car lanes are reduced to 3 in both
options? [I assume why not include 2 bike lanes in Design 1 as well]
• Please brighten the paint for bike lane under bridge on Green St!
• Close West Seneca St — too many intersections
• It looks like a gun [perhaps a reference to the posters]
• Add more lanes on 89/ 96S coming near the bridges [not sure about these last words].
Backs up too far.
• It's already congested. Why remove car lanes? More traffic stopping = bad

the 16,000 cars. I also am very concerned that the n-dnute biking community on West M is
steering the ship of this process.
The plan looks to be well thought out with cleaning up Brindley, West Seneca and Petes as a
th traf
e fic on the bridge will create
long lines, idling cars on the hill, more frustration, aggressive driving and potentially more
dangerous situations for bikers and pedestrians throughout the west end as drivers speed
through to make up for lost time.
More development on the large vacant parcels in the Town of Ithaca is only going to raise that
16,000 traffic count. Vinegar and Campbell will see increased traffic as drivers look for the
quickest route.
Last but not least is the affect that this increased congestion will have on the desirability to live
on West Hill. In turn that will affect property values. Prior to the redesign of west end traffic
with splitting 13 and adding the 2 bridges (I think 1996) home buyers steered clear of the west
side of town due to the congestion. West Hill was not considered a desirable place to live. I fear
that this will now happen again with the reduction of lanes on the bridge
I am also a real estate broker of 33 years here in Ithaca and I very much remember the stigma
that West Hill had prior to 1996. Please do not let this happen again to our community
You may have already seen some of my comments below on IWest.
I'he subject was "'NY79 Bridge, Intersections, Crosswalk, and Signals"
Today is the deadline.
The last meeting where I spoke for the record was in the cafeteria at LACS.
There I noted that some diets don't work, or backfire, and the Road Diet is one of them.
I also suggested widening the bridge, and that idea made it into the proposal.
However it was then disallowed because of cost.
Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the April 12 meeting.
I have been busy with work, ExecUtOTship, and Bowling Secy/Treas
However, I have been following the discussion, and I looked at the City report.
So, I can try to understand the proposed designs.
At previous meetings, I have objected to removal of any auto traffic lanes.
Every work day, I commute across this bridge. I use all 4 lanes on my commute.
Having lived in Ithaca and Thurg through the days of the Octopus, I appreciated the 3 -bridge
solution.
However, NY79 is the only one of the three with good throughput in the morning.
That is why so many drivers cut through Campbell Avenue, where we live, to avoid backup on
96.
een a core issue for me since 2005 when we—
Tit.oved here.
While I share Dave and Andrejz's deep concern about climate change, I disagree about
dedicated bicycle lanes.
BTW, "bicycle lobby" is not a pejorative term. It just describes a political behavior and
alignment.
If ***I*** am identified as Solar -Charged Electric Car Lobby Dude #1, 1 step up. I own it. See
below.
The lane repurposed on the NY96 bridge had little effect on northbound traffic, because few
were going to Park Rd. rn hmw have a
negative effect.
I will say "I told you so!" because I am telling you now.
Before any major [con] (de?)struction around NY79+13A, I would like to see four things:
1) The signal(s) for NY13A (see below) as Genie Hurme suggests.
2) Visibility upgrades to TWO existing crosswalks across NY79
3) Completion of the Brindley Street re -alignment, which will solve some problems already
4) an experiment with cones and barrels before any concrete is placed.
The crosswalks that are in place now are a PATHETIC JOKE.
I almost got run over by a RotoRooter van in the Xwalk in front of Trombley Tire.
I noted the plate, called the police and had the driver arrested, and we went to court.
Judge Rossiter let him off because I was not in HIS lane of traffic, only about 2 feet away.
Any closer and I would have been hit by the mirror on the van.
Thus you can see that, even though I am addressing this issue as a driver:
I respect pedestrian rights and bicycle rights. EVERY DAY.
I stop for peds, or waiting vehicles, at foot of Hector and by Trombley, and get honked at.

Finally there is a signal, and that intersection is no longer dysfunctional.
It was a long time coming, and now it is right. Drive there. Check it out.
This could happen at 79 and 13A, but a light just at NY79 does not help Elm Street.
Really at rush hour we need TWO lights, synchronized, with crosswalkbuttons to interrupt
traffic.

is red.
Put in 13A left turn lane & signal and delete that waste -of -cement island.
The backup would be about to up the back trail to the Chestnut apts. 30-45 sec cycle.
Timing is everything.
At off-peak times, all of these lights can be flashing red (3 or 4 -way STOP, take turns).
During rush hour, there are four "states":
A All through traffic stopped, crosswalks open. Right turn on red if no ped in Xwalk.
B NY79 green, 13A red, Elm St red.
C NY79 red, 131 green, Elm St. red.
D NY79 red, 13A red, Elm St. green.
For a sequence, I suggest B, C, B, D, with A selected by pedestrian pushbutton.
Bicycles obey same laws and signals as motor vehicles.
Traffic flow is ALWAYS more efficient if drivers pay attention and go immediately at green.
With good signal programming, backup would be nothing. Peristaltic movement.

Signal(s) are needed. I stop to let school buses etc make the left tam, and get honked at.

Greetings:
We met briefly at the meeting in City Hall as you explained the two ideas for improving
pedestrian and cyclist flow and safety on the Route 79 bridge over the flood control channel. I
was more favorable to the option providing a protected sidewalk for pedestrians and cyclists
and also in favor of the traffic signal at Floral Avenue and Hector Street.
After reading many comments from those of my neighbors living on west hill, my concern has
grown over the potential problems created during rush hour by eliminating one of the lanes
WJAPAC15ty strian and
cyclist safety are apparent, I fear a backlash from those many drivers who need to access our
limited streets across the inlet and the flood control channel. All three roads 89, 96 and 79
gAa
i � msAb -macr•ss
the train tracks and on to Meadow or Fulton Streets as they go their way.
Already those of us on west hill see drivers searching for shortcuts between 79 and 96 as they
desperately try to cut their commute time or secure a place in line.
My fear is that any improvements will be resented by commuters, which could bnpair the
safety improvements for pedestrians and cyclists, your and our goal in the first place.
May I suggest that the Hector/ Floral traffic signal be installed as soon as possible.
Next, is there any possibility of a pedestrian/cyclist addition to the bridge that does not require
the e® of one lane of east bound traffic?
If not, I think trouble hes ahead.
Regards,
Jerry Wilcox
I wanted to reach out and thank you for working on the inlet island road redesign. I live on
South Titus ave and coming from my house trying to get to the Cayuga Waterfront Trail there
aren't really good options. The proposal to install a wider path that is separated from traffic
with a concrete barrier would effectively solve this problem allowing me to bike around on
Ithaca Voice: painted bike lanes are unlikely to be effective. The traffic over there is very fast
and it will likely be unsafe for bicycles to be on the shoulder even if there is a painted lane.

Was this appeal sent to BP W yet? I can't find it on any agendas, but I could just be blind.
If it hasn't, could any information and recommendation be forwarded to me to be put on this Monday's meeting
agenda?

the creator likes snapping turtles best and when mother earth hears the sound of a turtle rattle, all
creation awakens and moves to the shaking beat.
Turtle Ln is a simple road name that doesn't require Q&A around spelling and calls
attention to a keystone native fauna to this area extant long before humans began occupying this
9xea and sure to be long after we're gone.
Splitting this access road up into two separate names will help to clearly define the locations
along these roads since it is a loop road that has a spur section that terminates at one • the
restroom, buildings at the "Kwanis" fields.
Runway Ln (blue on map) - section from the Hanger Theater to the Cass Park Rink/tennis court
area. Cass Park was formally the location of the Ithaca airport. A portion of the access road is
thought to have been part of the former airport runway.
Cove Ln (purple on map) - for the section between 89 and restroorn building at "Kwanis"
baseball field. This section of road leads past the playground and the dock area which is referred
to as the "cove" by Cass staff and park users.
