| Which option do you most prefer? |
Option 3: Right turn out of East Street ban
|
| Please share any additional comments on your preferred option |
From personel experience turning right from East street into Peachgrove is very dangerous. Gaps in traffic is small. Entering on the bend in the road makes visibility and scanning very difficult. I often miss an vehicle,bicycle or pedestrian. I have made many mistakes turning right and nearly caused accidents. I would prefer a sfer way to join traffic.

I used to live in Cook street and used the road regurlarly going to Claudlands Arena
|
| What do you use the East Street intersection for? |
Go to farmer’s market, Claudelands playground, settlement centre, or other Claudelands Arena attractions
|
| Do you support the proposal for a new pedestrian crossing point on Brooklyn Road near East Street? |
Yes
|
| Please share reasons for your selection. |
I am getting older. Sometimes the only easy parking for the farmers market is on the far side of the street. And it is getting scarier to cross the road. I often see parents with small kids or strollers also struggeling to find a gap in the traffic to cross the street
