Above all, 11th Street can use some love. 8th Street is busier and deserves the upgrade slated for it; but all I am asking for is repaving the bumps over the CPR tracks and a sidewalk worthy of such traffic.

I'd die happy if they gave 11th Street the light cycle priority that it and the Beltline deserves. What would all that cost to fix? 100K? They could probably do it in a weekend.

I stand there for a few minutes every morning, probably wait about 5 for the light at 9th and then get 30 seconds to cross lol. I don't really think it's that big of a deal though, there are a massive amount of cars using 9th as a way into downtown, sufficient that when they do finally build an underpass there I think it will cut under 9th as well as the train tracks.
