Overview: During the recent Pasco County Metropolitan Planning Organization meeting, concerns were raised about pedestrian safety for children attending the soon-to-open Skybrook K-8 School. Matt Collins, a resident from Long Lake Ranch Boulevard in Lutz, emphasized the need for safety measures on Sunlake Boulevard, a busy four-lane road that students will need to cross to reach the school. He highlighted the inadequacy of the existing crosswalk, where motorists frequently fail to yield to pedestrians. Collins called for the installation of an electronic pedestrian traffic management system, which could include flashing lights or in-pavement warning lights, to ensure the safety of hundreds of children who will be walking or biking to school. He also pointed out that the area is experiencing increased traffic due to new commercial developments, making this issue even more pressing.
