Eyes on the Street: Stop Signs Installed on Idaho Ave. Near Franklin Elementary

Date:

Via Twitter user @bikeboulderbike came news last week that the city had installed stop signs (and those orange flags to draw attention to the new stops) on Idaho Avenue hear Franklin Elementary. The new crossings are part of the city’s commitment to provide more safe crossings for pedestrians in residential areas, especially near schools, that was included in its recommitment to Vision Zero last year.
