说明
The North Portal to the District of Columbia, the crossroads between DC, Downtown Silver Spring, MD, and Rock Creek Park is a dangerous place to drive, walk, to cross the street, and ride a bicycle. Poor sight lines, bad landscaping, inaccessible sidewalks (when there are sidewalks), poor traffic controls, confusing and distracting municipal and commercial signage, jurisdictional conflicts between law enforcement/EMS.

Paint crosswalks and erect pedestrian signs where pedestrians walk.
Trim back thick (and sight blocking) shrubbery on 16th street that limits visibility for motorists and pedestrians.
Add additional crosswalk signals where possible.
With these short-term (and minimal cost) fixes, the intersection could immediately be made a lot safer for pedestrians and motorists alike and quite possibly save some lives.
