Description
Drivers do not stop for pedestrians at any crosswalk along fairmont. its impossible to cross safely as it is a constant stream of reckless speeding cars who do not seem aware of crosswalk laws. they often speed up dangerously if you do attempt crossing within designated lines. its equally hard to cross fairmont even in a vehicle as moving traffic is often obscured by parked cars. we need a traffic light or at least a button to request crossing.

- Staff · July 7, 2025DMV has no reported pedestrian crashes for the latest eight-year period (1.1.17 – 12.31.24) at the intersection of Fairmount Ave and N. 20th St. Flashing lights for pedestrians and traffic signals are capital improvements and are not in the latest adopted City Budget. Fairmount Ave and N. 20th St has overhead hazard identification beacons and crosswalks on each intersection leg.
