Right turn on red AFTER stop? Gone! Be careful crossing the street at an intersection as likely cars will disregard the red light and clip you in the crosswalk. Even municipal vehicles must be permitted to bypass this rule as they are easy to spot…
"Delray Beach is well past the saturation point but greed keeps overdevelopment going on."
"Let's see how much over development we can squeeze out of each parcel. Illustrations look nice, but like so many other proposals, it's awfully dense. So many nearby areas and communities have been ruined by oversaturation, a Florida specialty."
"Unfortunately, too many reckless senseless people doing reckless senseless acts just as they do on Florida's roads. In other parts of this country and world, where it's commonplace for trains to travel through heavily populated areas, there is far…"
"Yet another sign that the Florida ecosystem is struggling with overbuilding, overdevelopment and lax pollution control."
"The Florida East Coast Railroad was hauling freight along these tracks many years before Delray Beach became developed to anywhere near the extent that it is now. The horns sound by law before each crossing. If we left it to people on the street to…"
"It is apparent that neighbor's objections and concerns were futile from square one. Community after community in Florida ruin their character and quality of life with over development, and traffic congestion for a few bucks in city coffers. It…"

"Hopefully this project will facilitate the better movement of traffic when it is finished and not just make it easier to flood the area with more cars."
"Just what a densely built and heavily traffic area needs. We never learn."
"We've seen this so many times before in other Florida cities. What amount of development is enough? Some are not content until an area is overbuilt, overpopulated, over top with traffic, and the scale,charm and character is gone. I like sensible new…"
"To anyone who thought Delray was at the saturation point, it's about to get worse. Too much of a good thing has spoiled many a Florida community and turned them into an overdeveloped, congested mess. One more on the way. Here comes Delray."
"This looks like an attempt to turn Boynton Beach into Ft. Lauderdale. Development can be tasteful and appropriate or massive and overblown. Looks like this will be the latter.
