Debra Johnson (The SMILE Lady) sends us concerns about traffic around Loma Alta Elementary:
As a Parent On Patrol (POP) at Loma Alta Elementary School. I have taken pictures I will forward. There needs to be a BLINKING School Crossing Sign right at the Curve where Lake Turns (curves and turns into Loma Alta).
In addition [we need] lights on the Crosswalk just as you make the that curve on Marengo and Loma Alta (I have seen this in other school zones). It starts going downhill and Loma Alta Elementary is right there. I was standing at the corner this morning 7:10 AM and WOW, do the cars pick up speed.
Now that it will be getting dark earlier the lights on the street will also help. There should also be more "CrossWalk" Signs near the school. This is a unusual school corner on a hill (See pictures attached) where there should be an exception to the "100" Foot rule with the blind curve.When is the next traffic meeting? Can we get a survey before then?
