Please would appreciate your help in providing safety for pedestrians crossing Whitestone between Walmart/HEB/Home Depot and Target as very often drivers are ignoring pedestrians who are crossing Whitestone while the pedestrian go sign is indicating that pedestrians may cross. Several times drivers drive right in front of me - whether they are making a right or left turn. I am referring to many instances when I cross per the walk indicator light and the drivers drive right by me - many times had I not stopped I would have been hit by a driver. Perhaps placing the lighted boards "Yield to Pedestrians or Ticket" or police monitoring. I am concerned there could be injuries or fatalities to pedestrians. Thank you very much.

Good morning,
Thank you for your patience while we investigated your request, and I do apologize for the delay in my response. After an initial field survey, we have determined that there are some modifications we can make to the traffic signal operations to assist pedestrians in crossing Whitestone Blvd at these locations, effectively giving pedestrians a head start before the light turns green for vehicles. We will be programming these changes over the next couple weeks. I would also like to try an electronic sign that has been effective at other locations in Cedar Park. These signs are custom manufactured for the City, so there will be a delay in getting them fabricated and installed, but we can go ahead and modify the signal operations in advance of installing the signs. If you have any additional requests, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Thank you,
Stephen Hanuscin, P.E.
