Description

Please immediately restore sight distance, paint crosswalks markings and correct the signage issues, then address the remaining deficiencies.

These four King School midblock crosswalks on Waldenwood Drive and Pemberton Drive are not marked (on-street paint), some signs are not visible, others are improperly located, and the signage is not consistent. Overgrown brush in the public right of way impedes visibility, the curbs do not have ADA ramps, and the older incandescent globe lights do not provide adequate illumination.

The crosswalks do not comply with the Ann Arbor Crosswalk Design Guidelines, the Michigan Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices, nor engineering (and common sense) sight distance requirements.

The neighborhood has some sidewalks, but not in this area; it was designed with public walkways (on public right of ways) along residential property lines. These walkways run to the King School property on the north and St Paul’s School to the south.
