Following protests by a city resident, St. Augustine City Manager John Regan said he's moving forward with fresh efforts to make safety changes at a dangerous traffic curve.
Bruce Bates, of Anastasia Island, wants safety improvements on Anastasia Boulevard along what he calls "dead man's curve," the stretch that includes Red Cox Drive, Old Quarry Road and Anastasia Park Road.
Bates launched a website, deadmanscurve.us, and a petition about the matter, and he spoke during public comment at Monday's Commission meeting.
Regan said the city has been working on the issue for years, and part of the issue is that some fatalities have involved drugs or alcohol so they're not counted in methodologies that can lead to change.
