I agree with all lyour points!  Who are the people responsible for this traffic design?  It is outrageous that all these changes seem to be the result of half-baked ideas with no real feasibility.

Lammers Road was a "bypass road" connecting north Tracy and south Tracy without having to go through the bottleneck of traffic lights that dot the town streets.  Now, in this posted 50 mph zone, all of a sudden there is this sudden widening and then abrupt narrowing of what used to be a straightaway, interrupted by a traffic light which is only useful during hte schoo lyear -- and then only during school hours.

There were no building obstructions, roads that need to be diverted or terrain that needed to be altered. They had a huge, clean slate within which to design the school and traffic neighborhood impact.  You are so correct -- who builds a brand new school with only one entry/exit?

Our tax money paid for this lack of planning and foresight?  Who are the council member who supported this and who is our city planner?  tHINK REAL HARD ABOUT THIS COME NEXT ELECTIONS.

I agree and the only way to get the kids to school with out being late for work or having them walk with the road kill on the side of the road is to take the bus. Last year for my son to go to West on the bus was $90 and now it is double. And if my son misses the bus it takes him 3 hours to walk home because he has to go 8 miles and we live 3 miles from the school. I am not sure how it works that if you drive over 20 mph in a school zone it is illegal but its legal to not have any sidewalks leading to the school!
