I would really like it if they built a parking lot or area for that play area. I live on Oquirrh Lake Road and have to pass that park whenever I use 114th. I try my best to go slow through that area but I often have seen families cut out across the road without warning to get back to their cars. In addition, many people park their large vehicles in areas that aren't suited to parking, making it so that it's hard for one car to pass, let alone two. I've also had problems with cars stopping in the road to let their family unload. It's just a large problem and someday someone will get hurt.

Building a parking lot would defeat the intent of having a "walkable community". We have plenty of parks in the community to prevent one park from becoming so crowded but the shear location combined with the numerous activities is really an attraction over other areas. I'm hoping that KL has more parks of this nature in the plans to help spread out the crowd a little bit more so. Something does need to be done though, even if its just no parking signs on the opposite side of the street to prevent the families from walking out in front of cars and allow better flow of traffic!
