Vegas residents are worried that a dangerous crosswalk near a local school might be result of obscured signs failing to notify oncoming drivers.

Local police agree that the crosswalk on Alexander Road and Shadow Peak near Eileen Conners Elementary School is a dangerous place. Drivers fail to yield for those in the crosswalk until the last moment, and some don’t even stop for students making their way across the street.

Drivers through the area contend that stop signs and indicators are hard to see. Trees block their view, causing motorists to neglect to yield at the sight of people attempting to cross.

City officials have been notified of the issues of poor visibility with road signs, and a spokesman from the city has indicated that they are looking into the matter and will make the necessary adjustments to rectify the situation.

In a town plagued by fatal accidents involving pedestrians, including children walking home from school, it is vitally important to adequately inform drivers of the dangers of what lies ahead.

Even more so, it is important for drivers to be on the lookout for pedestrians and stop when they come upon people crossing in a crosswalk.
