Crossing the street in front of the Temple Gardens Minerals just got a bit safer as the city takes action on illegal parking.

 

Pedestrian hazards on the 0 block of Fairford East have prompted the city to install some good-looking solutions.

Assistant City Engineer Josh Frederick tells us after local citizens and the Temple Gardens Mineral Spa raised some concerns they went to work. "We have installed some concrete barriers and some planters just to protect the cross walks."

Before the planters, tour buses and Temple Gardens Mineral Spa guests were parking on the cross walk affecting the view of oncoming traffic and forcing pedestrians to walk between cars.
