You saw the invitation in a recent eblast, and you probably saw people with clipboards at our intersections last week. On June 12 the HVRA Transportation Committee organized a count to measure conditions for walkers in our area. From 7 to 10 am, and from 3 to 7 pm, 30 volunteers counted all vehicles and noted wrong-way traffic and incomplete stops at eight Harbord Village intersections and the Harbord-Robert crosswalk. We recorded over 6000 events. They included 54 incidents of wrong-way driving, rolling stops nearly half the time at stop signs, and more than a third incomplete stops at the crosswalk. Volunteers saw a garbage truck nick a parked vehicle and keep going, a pedestrian narrowly avoid a wrong-way driver, and a police car make only a rolling stop at a stop sign. Read the HVRA letter sent to City Council asking for enforcement of existing laws, new street design and signage, a systematic and rigorous study of the issues, and education of the public about existing laws. And watch the HVRA website for more news about traffic initiatives in Harbord Village, including installation of in-ground street plantings at a few intersections this summer.
