To the Editor:
Starting at Oxycocus Road south to Bay Avenue, the speed limit is 35 mph. Many do 40 mph or more. At that speed it takes less than 11 seconds to reach the crosswalk at the library. Cars rarely stop. You must stand and wait for a break in traffic while 30 to 70 cars pass. During peak traffic times, a 10-minute wait is possible. Standing in rain, sleet orarctic winds, at a brisk walk it is 10 seconds to cross the street.
When it rains, one side of the road floods across from the library.
