    On my walk, I was trying to cross the street to turn around, but the distance between crosswalks was so far I ended up crossing in the middle of the street. Typically on this road, cars will speed up a little because of the long length in between crosswalks. I wish there were more crosswalks, or speed bumps maybe to reduce the speeds cars are going by.

      Walkers need safe places to walk. Maybe this can be brought up in city council meetings or write your senator to see what can be done.
