You're looking at that right by the way. THREE freeway ramps!! I walked this last week and it was genuinely terrifying. The first freeway ramp when coming from the bus stop has NO pedestrian lights or signals.
Also those of you with good eyes will notice that there is NO SIDEWALK south of the bus stop. None. If you want to walk south on that particular street (which is 5 lanes btw) then you have to cross the freeway to get to the other side of the road.
Is it bad it i think that this isn’t that bad at all?
I mean it would be nicer if the sidewalk continued on both sides sure, but freeway enterance ramps are typically about as hard for pedestrians to cross as roundabouts given the slow speed you need to take them and single direction of traffic. It looks like there are even marked crossings and a sidewak, so this walk is very much intended. The freeway itself is grade separated and so not a factor in any of this, and while the road is five lanes it’s a arterial road so that’s quite resonable.
It's really bad. Don't fool yourself. Typical layout of a car-centric design.
What would improve it in your view? I mean it’s an artery joining a freeway, there’s going to be cars.
At least a small bridge over the multi lane street.
Proper ped/cycle infrastructure is at grade with cars doing the climbing.
given the scale involved i don’t think you’d be tight on space with just a pedestrian ramp, much less rasing or lowering the road. Given how it’s just two lanes each way plus a turning lane i’d imagine a stoplight’s pedestrian cycle should be enough.
