On behalf of Valley Children's Healthcare, I support the proposed crosswalk safety improvements near schools. We treat too many pediatric injuries from traffic incidents. The rapid flashing beacons and raised crosswalks in the proposal are proven safety measures. We'd welcome the opportunity to partner with the city on pedestrian safety education.
