Pulaski and Granville Crosswalk
Crossing Pulaski at Granville has become tedious. Currently there is a bumpout on the southeast corner. At the very least there needs to be one installed on the northwest corner as well.
Currently the crosswalk is on a diagonal, which forces pedestrians to take a longer route to the other side of the street. It needs to be straightened.
Other calming measures are included in the rendering.
Again, there is a church on the northeast corner and a nursing home on the southeast corner.
The measures would also help families cross Pulaski safely to get from the North Park neighborhood to Sauganash Park and All Aboard preschool.

Same at Glenlake & Rosemont on Pulaski.

I support this.
I'll support any proposal that would help make that "T" intersection safer for the community.
Also, anyone who has attempted to pull out onto Pulaski from westbound Granvile would agree. It's often impossible to see if any vehicles are approaching on Pulaski, and/or how fast they might be traveling. Parked vehicles and parkway trees make it a dangerous guessing game.
What would be the drawback of just adding (permanent) stop signs on Pulaski at Granville?
Wouldn't that do more for safety and cost less?
I would welcome anybody's thoughts on that.
Thanks!
