Dear City Council members,
I am writing to ask that you refrain from approving the Pasadena Pedestrian Transportation Plan without some minor but very important changes.
First, please make sure that the plan includes a requirement that the most dangerous intersections get priority. This is just common sense. Fourteen pedestrians were killed on Pasadena's streets from 2018 through 2022 (the last five year period for which data is available), and another 35 were seriously injured. We KNOW where pedestrians are in the most danger.
Second, take a look at the cities that have responded most effectively to deaths and injuries on their streets. The strategies they have used are known as "quick builds." Hoboken has not had a pedestrian death for seven years.
Those two important steps will put Pasadena in a position to access funding for those projects from the Federal Safe Streets for All Program.
In the future, I ask also that the city move in the direction of taking a comprehensive approach to transportation planning that considers where people need to go, and ALL the ways they can get there, including on foot. Good transportation planning can support our local economy, improve our health by getting us out of our cars (and reducing deaths and injuries from crashes), and strengthen our connections to our neighbors and the wider community. I want to live in a city where there's an interconnected network of streets that are lovely and safe to walk on, whether it's for a trip to buy milk or a meander around a neighborhood.

I really enjoy hiking and walking around Pasadena but do find myself limited due to safety concerns in many areas.
Thank you
