Large boulders that were placed to keep RVs from parking along Kato Road in Fremont a couple of years ago are sparking a discussion about safety.
FREMONT -- While cities around the Bay Area have tried some unusual tactics to deal with the homeless, large boulders that were placed to keep RVs from parking along Kato Road in Fremont a couple of years ago are sparking a discussion about safety.
On May 12, a 57-year-old woman sustained severe injuries when her vehicle collided with the boulders. She died six days later. "The city is not listening to the motorists, because this presents a danger to motorists," Abreu said."The boulders were not intended to interact with the cars. They were intended to eradicate a homeless encampment. But the effect, especially on some of these sharp curves, is to put a dangerous obstacle right in front of the motorist.
