What's Pinal County Waiting For? American Avenue Safety Issues Merit Immediate Action

One disturbing fact jumps out from a reading of the Road Safety Assessment (RSA) study commissioned by Pinal County for American Avenue.  Here it is: 
Many of the safety improvements identified in the document can and should be made right now! 
Here's an example:  

That's one of several related to "road paintings" ... not just pavement striping but also stop bars that provide vital info to alert drivers how far to nose into cross traffic and crosswalks that slow traffic and alert drivers to pedestrians. 
The engineering consultants also identify bushes obscuring driver's sight lines, warning lights not functioning, and signage mis-located. 
So what gives?  Why not do what seems basic maintenance...immediately? 
Pinal County officials should carefully review the RSA document, identify what can and should be done right now, and authorize those actions without delay.
