The resident's idea, as submitted
The idea
It would be excellent to have more stop signs, cross-walks, and yield signs erected in the Allston-Brighton neighborhood to reduce accidents. I have been living in this area for 6+ years and notice consistent patterns in traffic issues.
Who it helps and why
It would make the neighborhood safer overall, more accessible to folks who do not have access to vehicles, otherly-abled folks, as well as those on scooters and alternative transportation with wheels. It would benefit the lower-class which seems frequently ignored (particularly when police officers are on site, NOT TAKING ANY ACTION to assist citizens time and time again.)
