you should have a place for people to make suggestions, (or have an eamil adress or SOMETHING at least) like this one i want to share with SOMEONE about the city providing broadband. my bro's city in CO does this and it looks like a really awesome program: http://www.longmontcolorado.gov/departments/departments-e-m/longmont- power-communications/broadband-service/learn-about-broadband/broadband-frequently-asked-questions
When heading N on Highland and turning L onto 3rd Street, it is extremely difficult to see around the TIS Bookstore. Cars with long noses practically have to inch out into traffic to see whether any vehicles are coming. (I suspect this may be partly responsible for the collision at the intersection I saw a few days ago.) My suggestion for a solution is to install convex traffic mirrors to increase visibility around the corner. These are used to excellent effect in the many tight corners in Europe, where streets and buildings often existed long before modern traffic conditions.
I frequently travel N and S on Hunter, and it is very, very difficult because of street parking to see whether there is oncoming traffic at this Woodlawn intersection. (There are other similar situations in the neighborhood, but this one is particularly bad.) it would be wonderful if there were convex traffic mirrors to be able to see around the corner. These are commonly used in low-visibility corners in Europe, and can be highly effective.
