POLL: What Can We Do to Make Pedestrians Safer?

The pace of pedestrian deaths is up in MN, the Star Tribune reported. How safe do you feel on foot in Fridley streets?

Two of the latest were in Anoka County: An elderly couple died Saturday after they were struck while walking in a crosswalk against a red light in Ramsey.

At his blog Pedestrian Safety, Dale Butler suggested one way to improve pedestrian safety in Fridley: Issue tickets to vehicles that block crosswalks when they stop at intersections for red lights.
