Safety issues in the Lincoln Street neighborhood

Four school bus stops in this neighborhood on narrow roads	Traffic congestion will only get worse with resulting safety risks	The Riverside Avenue families have icepacks at the ready for the next accident
Cars pushing through pedestrians on the crossing. A frequent occurence at this junction of Post Road West and CT33 / Riverside Ave.	Cross Street will become crosser! It wll be the principal cut through for cars trying to head West out of the complex. Steep, narrow, uneven, with school bus stop on the road and poor visibility onto Riverside Avenue. See the gouges?
