We've had a few nasty accidents here, and there's often
a backup. A signal of some sort would be helpful (and
seems inevitable.)0

pedestrian sidewalk along Jackson Street in Port Townsend

A pedestrian sidewalk along Jackson Street in Port
Townsend between the Northwest Maritime Center
and Jefferson Street (along Point Hudson Marina).
Tourists from whale watching vessels and classes of
children from the Maritime Center regularly walk this
route, which is also a main route for traffic leaving or
going in front of the Maritime Center. It's the only way
for traffic to go out of the Maritime Center. Although
it's a 5 mph speed limit, it's very dangerous for
pedestrians - especially the little kids walking to
sailing/boating lessons. 2

Hi Lucas. Thank you for your comments! I would like to point out that your sidewalk suggestion is in Port Townsend, which has its own SpeakUp webpage located: http://speakuppt.us/ . You should submit your comment to their idea page to ensure that it is seen by the city and your neighbors!Emma Bolin 9/23/2016 20:43 0

Electric lifts along roads.

Lifts similar to the escalators in department stores,
installed alongside roads on certain hills, can provide a
form of powered transportation to anyone on foot, or
with a lightweight non-motorized vehicle, such as a
bicycle, tricycle, wheelchair, or even certain Kinetic
sculptures. The economy and efficiency comes by
having a system with one stationary motor, rather than
everyone carrying around their own, and starting and
stopping with all that extra mass. Once on top of a hill,
say Lawrence street, the person could ride, skateboard,
or otherwise coast downhill to many other points, from
which they again may catch a lift, such as from Taylor
going up Washington. Lifts could also be installed along
County roads, but would probably get less use. This is a
form of mass transit which incorporates the individual
having total decision-making power over when to use
it, and where to go from there, using the distributive
nature of gravity. Gravity is the physical problem to
overcome in any transportation system, so why not use
it to our own advantage? These kinds of proposals
require a community effort, and would create a
community benefit. I leave it for others to create ways
for individuals to contribute financially. 0

I'd like to see a pedestrian-friendly trail (similar to the
Olympic Discovery Trail) go in along both Hwy 19 from
the schools to Ness' Corner in Chimacum.1

Open green growing pasture areas often with cattle in
them.. Smallish houses, large barns, corner gas station,
small cafe, tiny post office, large feed and grain store..
We have grown from that early time yet all of that
remains only several times larger.. My goal would be to
preserve that feel while remaining a vibrant welcoming
community for all age groups.1
