HEBER CITY, Utah — Heber City Police are working to keep pedestrians safe after several auto-pedestrian incidents in the past month.
“The city, UDOT, everybody agreed to put in a crosswalk there," said Sgt. Josh Weishar with the Heber City Police Department."In the process of putting that crosswalk, while they were still installing it, we had ... a 14-year-old girl get hit in that crosswalk.""We had a 40-year-old female get hit last week in that intersection, minor injuries," he said.
Just two weeks ago, Wasatch High School Principal Justin Kelly and his colleagues could be seen walking students safely across the road. "They decided they needed two crossing guards up here, and I volunteered to come up here to work here," she said.“We've got 20 shifts ... specific for crosswalks, at five hours a piece, all of them in the city," Weishar said."But we kind of are emphasizing trying to get a daily officer at that specific crosswalk."He said that during the first one of these shifts he worked, they issued about a dozen citations — something that wasn't the case on Tuesday.
