QUESTION OF THE DAY: Does Business Loop 70 need safety improvements?

Local officials and the firm they've contracted to study safety on Business Loop 70 held a public meeting Thursday night.

The study would focus on safety for people outside of vehicles -- pedestrians, cyclists, motorcycle riders, etc. Stretches of the Loop lack the kind of improvements meant to make roads safer for people outside of cars, such as sidewalks and bike lanes. Most of the people killed along Business Loop 70 are not in vehicles when they suffer fatal injuries.

Do you think the Loop needs safety improvements? Let us know by voting in the poll.
