Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren and City Council Member Molly Clifford have announced a traffic calming program for Lake Avenue.
The mayor says it’s not always the driver’s fault when someone gets run over in the street, so they’ll go with a multi-step approach that looks at highway redesign to slow down vehicles and also steps up law enforcement.
This follows two recent incidents in which pedestrians were struck and killed on Lake Avenue. In one case, the drivers who struck the victim as she crossed the street were racing each other down the avenue.
