City Hall staffers have recommended against a crossing but plan to continue researching pedestrian and bicyclist routes connecting the Aerie and Main Street. Officials question route across fast, busy, wide road JAY HAMBURGER The Park Record There is interest in creating a crosswalk that would stretch across one of Park City’s widest, fastest and most heavily traveled streets, but it is not clear how far into the government process the idea will advance. People in the Aerie, a neighborhood perched above Deer Valley Drive, have approached City Hall about the possibility of building a crosswalk spanning Deer Valley Drive at the Aerie Drive intersection. A crosswalk would put someone in the Aerie a short distance It is difficult to justify a pedestrian crossing at the intersection of Aerie Drive and Deer Valley Drive given the low pedestrian demand, high traffic volume, limited crash history, environmental and physical constraints, and associated costs,” Park City report from Main Street and in a location where they could access pedestrian routes stretching outward from Old Town. Aerie residents made the request for a Be the first to ride crosswalk through a City Hall program that allows neighborhoods to ask for improvements to the way traffic is managed. Matt Cassel, the Park City engineer, said the Aerie residents want a crosswalk with a pedestrian-activated signal spanning Deer Valley Drive. The signal would be similar to the one at the Park Avenue crosswalk outside Holiday Village. Paul Zane Pilzer, an Aerie resident, addressed the Park City Council at a recent meeting about the topic. He said he wants the intersection to be a priority based on safety concerns. In a later interview, Pilzer said there are units located on lower Aerie Drive that are available for rent on a nightly basis, adding to the pedestrian numbers walking between Main Street and Aerie Drive.
