Comments on: TRAFFIC ALERT: SDOT removing crosswalk ‘painted by mistake’ at 20th/Roxbury https://westseattleblog.com/2024/09/traffic-alert-sdot-removing-1-of-2-crosswalks-at-20th-roxbury/ West Seattle news, 24/7 Tue, 10 Sep 2024 01:25:45 +0000 hourly 1 By: Dustin https://westseattleblog.com/2024/09/traffic-alert-sdot-removing-1-of-2-crosswalks-at-20th-roxbury/#comment-2583658 Tue, 10 Sep 2024 01:25:45 +0000 https://westseattleblog.com/?p=1100956#comment-2583658 I’m confused how a crosswalk is confusing people… Why would people crossing on the east side of the street be waiting for a button activated signal to change on the west side? The only reason for removing it would be so cars don’t have any perceived reason to stop for pedestrians on the east side. (Which on Roxbury they won’t stop anyway) But people will probably try to cross there since the curbs are recessed.

Painted mistakenly by contractors. Just added that info above – I had asked SDOT a followup question after the initial announcement.
