North Sycamore Street Pedestrian Safety Timeline

North Sycamore Street Pedestrian Safety Timeline | Newtown News of Interest | Scoop.it

It’s been over a year since Scott Spitznas was struck by a car while in the crosswalk at Silo Drive and North Sycamore Street in Newtown Township on December 22, 2021. One month later, the Newtown traffic engineer recommended several pedestrian safety measures. Only some of these recommendations were approved for  immediate implementation at the time (view Youtube video: “Newtown Supervisors Act To Improve Pedestrian Safety”).

Since other recommended safety measures are yet to be implemented, I thought it was a good time to review the history of pedestrian safety on North Sycamore Street. Hence this timeline, which includes links to more information that I have published. I plan to update the timeline as needed.
