POWERPOINT DESCRIPTION

Received10/ 16/ 23 - Curry
I present this after warning the city for over a year; now it is personal. My daughter recently was hit by another car due to city failure not protecting the public.
SLIDE ONE SLIDE TWO
The City of Chula Vista is building new bike lanes by removing two road lanes from busy congested street of Broadway from C Street on the north end to Main Street on the south end.
Currently Broadway two lanes removed for bike lanes has been implemented from C street near Best Buy to G street resulting in more unsafe traffic congestion. Result of car traffic backed up on Broadway; commuters race to beat congestion at stop light swerve from two lane to one lane at every intersection on Broadway, even if marked right turn only. E STREET
HAS NO RIGHT HAND LANE WARNINGS ENCOURAGING COMMUTERS AT TRAFFIC LIGHT TO RACE EACH OTHER TO MERGE TO ONE LANE JUST TWO CAR LENGTHS AHEAD. Cars are backed up at all the way to each next intersection immediately ahead result from speeding car ACCIDENT HAZARD RISKS to bicyclists and commuters.

SLIDE SIX
BROADWAY MAIN THRU ROAD MISSING SIGNS
IGNORED COMPARED TO CITY HALL SIDE STREET
Broadway at the E street intersection no warnings missing signage on right full lane - right turn only sign, right turn only road paint marking and warnings for traffic to merge to left lane BEFORE THE TRAFFIC LIGHT. Just past every intersection on Broadway an immediate merge to one lane, a hazard to bicyclists from cars swerving over to the one lane.. The far right hand turnoff needs to be combined with RIGHT LANE CHANGE THE FULL LANE TO RIGHT TURN ONLY!
