Changes Needed with Cars, Pedestrians
There is a problem in Auburn that needs to be addressed. Whether it is with the citizens or the city, it needs to be dealt with regardless.Two pedestrians have been struck by vehicles within the past month.A librarian walking across College Street to the conference center at night and was struck by a truck.There was a student this past Friday that was struck by a SUV on Magnolia Avenue.There still seems to be some debate of whether she was in a crosswalk.Both were life-flighted to nearby hospitals.The problem does not lie within the jaywalking, but more so with the lack of lighting in these areas.Several residents have commented on the severe problem the lack of lighting from the latest accident has caused.Bouncers from the nearby bars have said they hear sirens every night.
