Description

This ticket is to express my concern regarding the recent construction of the new road in the downtown area. While I appreciate the efforts to improve the village green, and they look great, I've noticed a safety issue that needs to be addressed.

This is the lack of clear demarcation between the sidewalk and the road as the road runs in between the playground and the Village Green area. This ambiguity poses a serious risk to pedestrians, particularly children who frequently run and ride scooters or bikes in the area. It is imperative that both drivers and pedestrians can easily distinguish between the road and the sidewalk to prevent accidents and ensure the safety of everyone using the area.

To address this issue, please consider implementing measures to clearly delineate the boundaries between the sidewalk and the road. Speed humps, strategically placed stop signs, and visible road striping are just a few suggestions that could help improve safety in the area. Additionally, signage alerting drivers to the presence of children playing nearby would also be beneficial.

Thank you for all you do to continue to improve Smyrna and make this a great place to live and play!
