Vallejo to eliminate at least three crosswalks on busy Tennessee Street

A city spokeperson said the city was removing the crosswalks “due to numerous vehicle vs. pedestrian collisions."

@thevallejosun how the heck does this make sense?

People keep getting hit so let's make it harder to cross legally.

Shifting the burden of safety to the most vulnerable.

@thevallejosun They are apparently unaware of California law regarding unmarked crosswalks (unmarked crosswalks *are* crosswalks). Instead of removing three marked crosswalks, they should install stop signs. How are the people getting off the bus at that corner supposed to get to their destination across the street? Walk a half mile to a traffic light, then walk another half mile in the other direction? #VisionZero #CarBrain
