I want to talk today about the crossing of the Slippery Elm Trail at Gypsy Lane Road. I have been riding the Trail since at least 2009, and in that time I have noticed a significant wait time sometimes at that crossing. I have also noticed many families, some with small children, on a family outing waiting to be able to cross. This situation concerns me. We need either a stop sign or a traffic light there. It would be a catastrophe if we waited until a cyclist was hit or killed. With more and more motorists not paying enough attention to cyclists on the roads we need to make the Slippery Elm Trail a safe place for cyclists, both young and old.
