What transportation problems or challenges do you experience at Five Points? Please respond for all ways that you might experience Five Points (as pedestrian, bicyclist, transit rider, driver or car passenger).
Excessive speeding, heavy traffic, excessively loud personal large/heavy duty trucks, motorcycles. Difficulties crossing the street without fear of being struck by car. Speeding cars in close proximity to sidewalks making walking and jogging dangerous and stressful. Children cannot be near Glenwood Avenue or on sidewalks. Pets are fearful of the fast-moving vehicles and close proximity to the traffic. Heavy traffic backups down Glenwood Avenue to St. Mary's street in mornings and evenings. Difficulties turning left from Glenwood Avenue onto side streets such as Beechridge Rd., Cowper Drive, The Circle, Myrtle Ave, etc.

Cars go through intersection too fast. Unsafe walking on sidewalk due to car speed on Glenwood and Whittaker Mill. Please make this neighborhood more walkable!

This is a walkable neighborhood with restaurants, a dry cleaners, drug store, post office. However, actually WALKING in this neighborhood is frightening, stressful and unpleasant due to the huge amounts of commercial vehicles speeding along narrow corridors.
