Hopefully that's a temp change until they can start the real projects for fixing this issue

Won’t win as the couple was walking illegally.

If the sidewalk was blocked off forcing pedestrians onto the road way, some juries will listen. The city, the stats, tgd engineers and the road contractor would all be at risk.

Speeding and traffic laws are rarely enforced in BR. The only time I ever saw cops shooting radar was on Nicholson headed towards Gardere and it was LSP.

They need jersey barriers between the edge of the travel lane and the edge of pavement.
