SAFETY 2RJCADTIONS FOR CHILDREN
The safety of our children is of paramount importance,
to :he opening of the Fourteenth Street School, some peculiar
blems In safety have arisen. After careful study sad some Inquiries
follow:,ng, proposal is given for your consideration.
There is no prospects of obtaining a permanent traffic guide at
�corner of Fourteenth Street and Hammond. Therefore, for the
. tection of the chiidren,ve suggest that those children living
•t of Henmond Street, (ie. Ham'mnd5 Norway, ®Rver, Aoutel'.e, and
Fairmount Park sector, etc., ) that would normally cross Hammond
Fourteenth Street, walk up to the 'Phlrteenth Street Crossing where
i:re I& a traffic guide, They would than have an option of walking
.k1len Street to Fourteenth or crossing from Tti:•teenth to
',rteenth Street through the Fairmount School lot.
In actual distance, the Allen Street approach is a bit, longer,
the students would enjoy sidewalks and avoid the mod that lingers
ween the two schools. This whole program is involving some increase
walking distance, but with our children's safety uta stake. it seems
fc ost negligible. ,b
