In response to an article that was written about possible crosswalks at certain intersections in Ocean Beach, which encouraged residents to contact the City of San Diego about them – I did.
As a surfer and someone who takes my daughter down to the OB Pier/seawall regularly, I see people try to cross at Abbott and Newport frequently and almost get hit by cars!
The City called me about three weeks ago, interviewed me about what I saw as the problem and said they would be sending someone out to inspect it at the peak time I gave ( I guessed 3:30-4:30 on Wednesday, being Farmers Market day).
I just received an email this past Thursday that they decided – based upon taking a look at it – that a crosswalk was indeed necessary at that intersection.
Anyhow, I have never filled out a request like that and did not expect anything to come from it. Thank you for putting up the article.
