Hi City Council Members,
Im writing to express support for implementing the Transportation Master Plan, Vision Zero Action Plan, AB 413 - Daylighting law, and traffic calming needs with street resurfacing.
Woodland Ave is up for resurfacing this year. As a part of this work, Im hoping that a sidewalk meeting the Menlo Park Walkway Standards CG-1 can be included. CG-1 states, "The walkway standard in front of or contiguous to any particular property shall be that standard which most nearly matches the existing improvements in the neighborhood". The other streets in the Willows neighborhood have sidewalks.
My wife and I have been living in the Willows for 10 years and we love walking and biking in the neighborhood with our three kids. We’d like to be able to use Woodland as one of our routes but we don’t feel safe so close to cars, especially with young kids.
Thanks,
Paul Kreiner
