Subject:Tank farm road
Dear City Council,
I am writing to support Alternative 1 (Road Diet) on Tank Farm Road for the 2025 Paving Project. The road
diet option provides the safest alternative for pedestrians, bicyclists and drivers on Tank Farm Road. The
Traffic Analysis Technical Memorandum the City had prepared emphasises the safety improvements a
road diet will bring. The road diet will greatly benefit provide safer crossings, reduced speeds and wider
bike lanes. The City has successfully used road diets to improve Johnson Ave, South Street, Laurel Lane.
The Santa Lucia neighborhoods deserve the same safety enhancements.
The SLO pace of life doesn't need people going 50+ mph by neighborhoods. I understand there are very
vocal people who would rather get somewhere 15 seconds faster and put my daughter's life a risk but
preventing another death on Tank Farm Road should be the priority.
Sincerely,
Garrett Parker
