SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL <br /> <br /> 7 <br /> <br />c. #11 – Crossing Guards <br />i. Data regarding intersections covered. Streetcar count volume. <br />ii. Why do we have 22, how many are arterials, how many are residential <br />streets? <br />Answer: <br />The City’s crossing guard program began with nine crossing guards. Over time, the <br />City has added crossing guards up to the current 22, based on resident requests. <br />Each such request was vetted by the Staff Traffic Committee (a committee <br />comprised of staff from Traffic Engineering, Police Department, School District, <br />Economic Development and Streets Department). <br />In 2022, Traffic Engineering collected pedestrian counts at the 22 school crossing <br />guard locations. This data collection was used to quantify the number of students <br />crossing at the various types of school crossing guard locations and the number of <br />vehicles that pass over the crosswalks. Data relating to the various intersections <br />from the 2022 study (the most recent data) is shown in the table below. <br /> <br />Of the 22 current crossing guards, nine are located on arterial roadways, and the <br />remaining 13 are located on residential streets. <br />
