Traffic Relief - STUDENTS ARE NOT FOLLOWING THE NEW PATH - PLEASE REMIND THEM AGAIN!
We are proposing a new walking route for students who use the path between the Deer Ridge development and
American Avenue. We ask those students to use the crosswalk at the very TOP of American Avenue ONLY to cross
the street. We have also noticed students crossing the street at various places where there isn't a crosswalk at all.
Please, use the crosswalk!!
