Presenting the objection was W. J. MacMahon, leader of the Capitol Shopping Center associa tion, who presented a petition signed by more than 150 persons. He said the signers were both business people in the shopping center and residents of the area. Will Prevent Backup The proposal to close the cross walk at the busy intersection came from the Oregon highway commission which seeks to prevent traffic backups at the heavily traveled intersection. F. B. Crandall, chief traffic en gineer for the department, ex plained that the present five phase signal time results in "jam ups" at the intersection. He said that now there are five signal changes in each 55 seconds. His proposed plan would mean but two changes. Hazard to Pedestrians He explained that the crosswalk elimination was wanted because of (he hazard to pedestrians from cars turning from Center onto Capitol if the two-phase signal were put into effect. MacMahon also cited safety to pedestrians in objecting to the closure. He said there were a number of elderly people in the neighborhood and that they would be required to make three street crossings rather than one to get to the shopping center if the street were closed. He feared some per sons might cross the street de spite the pedestrian barriers. He also said the businessmen are not interested in speeding up the traffic and noted that access is valuable and important to a business district.
