He will address questions we have about traffic calming devices and pedestrian crosswalks. He will look at the three worst intersections/traffic areas in Chapel Hill and talk about possible solutions. Among some of the timely topics that relate to us will be parking ticket issues, and the 25 year traffic master plan for the area.
