Question
The route is a fantastic idea, but could you please consider not using the white plastic vertical guards that line the streets on the west side along Starr Pass Blvd? Many of the area residents have commented to each other in casual settings that they have not seen these guards widely used in more affluent areas of Tucson, which has made west side neighbors feel discouraged-- they are also unsure about who to contact for maintenance/ repairs. Almost all of the reflective guards along the Starr Pass route have been damaged for over 2 years, never replaced or modified, and what started as an area improvement project has left the area looking unkempt and uncared for, which is unfortunate in an underrepresented part of the City and also a beautiful desert corridor. Would you please also consider prioritizing protected bike lanes and sidewalk improvements along Greesewood Road leading up to Pima College West Campus at Anklam Road-- including west Broadway Blvd? Students and elderly residents in the area ride bikes and walk along the roads with little to no safe bike lanes, sidewalks, or lighting. Thanks for your consideration!
