Transportation engineer-splained
If you look close, I don't think there are any sidewalks anywhere. Pain in the arse. Its about 5 miles to the nearest grocery store for me, think the nearest side walk starts around 4 miles in. Sucks, but it was a small town that blew up I guess but they never invested in decent infrastructure.
If you have to walk regularly you should write to your local politicians and city council that your needs are not being met safely.
@FireRetardant @LifeInMultipleChoice If you have to drive regularly you should also write to your local politicians that your needs are not being met safely because it’s too difficult for you to travel in ways that are safer and more efficient.
