Fear for their safety. <br />Will the multi -use path still be built? <br />Mr. Durr responded that it will under <br />options A, B(s) and D.

Increased traffic would <br />make it more dangerous, especially in <br />the dark. Mr. Durr explained that <br />Option A, B1, 2, 3, and D options <br />would reduce the traffic on Fellows <br />leaving typical residential traffic on <br />Fellows Street. <br />Mr. Downes asked for feedback from <br />the crowd regarding Option C where <br />10 <br />
