In our Truck Study serious pedestrian safety concerns were observed when cars and trucks travel on Rt. 413 and do not adhere to posted speed limits as they try to beat the light. This currently presents safety concerns for all pedestrians trying to cross the intersection and walking on sidewalks. Observers noted that people in wheelchairs tried to cross Rt. 413 to get into town and reach both the park and the library. Woods Services is located in the Borough, so we have many residents with disabilities who live in the community.
