BRPS: Motorists and pedestrians need to be more cautious at crosswalks

Posted About Seven Years Ago by Steve Gove

The Big Rapids Department of Public Safety are asking motorists to be aware and cautious of pedestrians crossing the road at the intersection of Maple St. and Michigan Ave.

Officials say pedestrians are being hurried by motorists as they are crossing the street in the crosswalks. Turning motorists are watching for vehicle traffic and not the pedestrians, while pedestrians are assuming motorists are watching for them.

According to BRPS, they have had several close calls, and are urging motorists and pedestrians to be more cautious.
