I am so happy to know there is someone like you in our neighborhood. I live across from Kay Park. Like, Matt, I also have issues about the roads. It looks like Matt got his wish for a crossing at Pine Hill and maybe the lights are yet to come. My son is five. He can't even ride the bike to school because there is no room on the side of the road at Bell Lane. There should be a bike lane there instead of parked cars. Also, on Almonte, I would like to see the road completely paved all the way across on for striped bike lanes with stencils of a bike and arrows.

We have the same problem right around the corner from you at Shoreline and Pine Hill. We have a newborn and it is a constant frustration when people zoom by without heed for safety of pedestrians. You have given us some good pointers on how to get the problem fixed! I think it would also be great to get inset lights installed in crosswalks that flash when a pedestrian is in the crosswalk but would not be obtrusive to nearby residents. I walk to the bus aka walking the gauntlet every morning along Shoreline and it is always a game of frogger. I love the semi-rural designation of Tam Valley, but hope that we can make some minor upgrades to make it easier for people to walk and bike in the area. PS - if anyone from the local govt is reading, here is a company the creates inset crosswalk flashing lights: http://www.xwalk.com/ Just linked in from BattelleMedia – Great post!
