New Crosswalk Opens Safe Pedestrian Routes for Old Kings Highway Residents
|
Residents of Old Kings Highway now have a safe pedestrian walkway that connects them to the new sidewalk near the entrance to Kiwanis Park and, ultimately, Main Street and downtown. The Police Commission at its most recent meeting unanimously approved a new crosswalk across Old Norwalk Road at Old Kings Highway. The crosswalk hooks up to a wooded trail that skirts the edge of Kiwanis Park and lets out near its entrance, where a sidewalk completed last year runs up to Main Street. Police Capt. John DiFederico said at the commission’s Sept. 15 meeting that residents of the area had requested the crosswalk last year.
