Subject: Smart Signals project plan- add Los Gatos Almaden and Union Ave
Hello,
The intersection at Los Gatos Almaden and Union Ave has a high number of bicyclists, especially during
commute hours as a number of middle school children access this road to get to Union Middle School.
This should be on the Smart Signal project plan.
Additionally, the entrance into Downey shopping center on Los Gatos Almaden Rd (closest to Cyclebar)
is a hazard and should have "Keep Clear" message painted on the road. Too many people cross over the
turning lane as they are driving westbound on Los Gatos Almaden Rd making a left into the Downey
shopping center. It's also very difficult for people exiting the shopping enter to make a left onto Los Gatos
Almaden Rd. I have seen too many close calls in this location and accidents are inevitable.
Thank you for your consideration.
Jamie Perkins
