He showed us the area of sidewalks that go nowhere. And the danger for pedestrians without crosswalks. Safety improvement should come first. Its being used for a beautification project rather than safety unit. Frank replaced the old crumbling median at a cost of 700,000. When the dot began looking at replacing the 60year old island, they learned that money was available for beautification projects. When we found out we could use those funds, we added the stamp portion as well as the islands. It seems backwards. Frank but the dot says safety is always their priority. And that sidewalk and pedestrian improvements are underway. And also one on leicester highway. Were spending over 6 and a half million dollars. Frank a tourist town that also desires beautification.
