   As a resident of city of Savannah, it's impossible to ignore the traffic congestion problem Savannah residents face at specific intersection like W Derenne Ave - Abercorn Street. I have noticed some observations that are the main reason for the traffic congestion at these areas, some are: * Short green light for the northbound traffic that is coming from Abercorn and turning left to W Derenne Ave. Solution is give enough time for traffic to pass by making the green light stay longer than what it is now. * I have seen most of the left turn traffic lights on intersections stops traffic from making left turn while there is no opposite traffic coming thru which does not make sense. In cities like Atlanta, left turn traffic light allow traffic to make left turn when there is no opposite traffic coming thru which helps clear out most traffic congestions at most intersections. I hope someone from city of Savannah take these suggestions into considerations .

4. Hold business operators accountable for daily clean-up of cigarette butts, vomit and dog poop on the sidewalks in front of their establishments..

   I work in the City Market area and daily navigate around the above. Businesses should be responsible for their customer use of the sidewalks in front of their business. A broom and dustpan would solve most trash and certainly enhance our visitors experience of beautiful Savannah. It's a sad commentary to ordinance what should be pride in ones business area - but it needs to happen for looks - health and civic responsibility. It's also a prime way to offer some work to the homeless population if not willing to have employees do it. Saves all the trash going into the storm water system. The bars are the worst offenders and are probably making the largest profit margin. People need to clean up after themselves but with no ashtrays - -

5. New bricks vs. old bricks

   It is a shame that Savannah thinks it to be more prudent to tear-up the intersection of Abercorn & Gwinnett to put in "brand new" brick crosswalks and narrowing the intersection at the same time; but...

   It is a shame that Savannah thinks it to be more prudent to tear-up the intersection of Abercorn & Gwinnett to put in "brand new" brick crosswalks and narrowing the intersection at the same time; but they have steadfastly refused to repair the brick sidewalks and streets already in place. What is so almighty important about Abercorn & Gwinnett ???
