safe riute
Manteca has a history of approving subdivisions not contiguous with other development that then forces students traveling to and from school on foot or on bicycle to share narrow streets that were developed as rural roads. This photo was taken in 2011 along Woodward Avenue shows a student returning home from Sierra High.
An expert has made it clear. It’s likely not going to be safe to be a student living in a City Council approved 99-home subdivision along heavily traveled Airport Way to walk or bicycle to Sierra High or any commercial location along equally busy West Yosemite Avenue.
