staff has informed Ying Feng of upcoming sidewalk construction
I'm a resident at S Southern Pines Ct. I and serveral of my neighoubrs rely on city bus #2 to go to work, and the only bus stop within walking distance is located at Country View Apts. However, there's no convenient way to get to the bus stop from Southern Pines, because there's no side walk on Rockport Rd between Country View Apts and Tapp Road. The road in this section is very narrow, and there's no shoulder next to the lane either. People would have to walk through bushes right next to the road. Plus, Rockport is becoming a rather busy road, with many cars constantly rushing by at a rather fast speed. With the limited visibility due to the the big slopes in this hilly section, it is extremely dangerous for pedestrians even during the day time, not to mention after dark. I strongly request the city to put an effort in completing the missing sidewalk on Rockport between Country View Apts and Tapp Road, since a lot of people's safety relies on this. Thank you.
