Vancouver Bans Pedestrians From Traffic Islands
Published 2 weeks ago
Description
After a pedestrian was struck and killed on a narrow lane divider at Vancouver Mall Drive and Fourth Plain Blvd in 2021, city staff spent years researching state and local law — and found nothing that required people to move off traffic islands. The Vancouver City Council voted unanimously Monday to change that, amending VMC Section 7.04.020 to give law enforcement tools to intervene before another tragedy occurs. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/news/vancouver-amends-municipal-code-banning-pedestrians-from-staying-on-traffic-islands-medians/ #Vancouver #ClarkCounty #PedestrianSafety #VancouverWA #PublicSafety #TrafficSafety #MunicipalCode #WashingtonState #LocalNews #ClarkCountyToday
