TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — Taryn Wood is only a freshman at Mica Mountain High School. But she is behind a petition with over 2,500 signatures. The goal is better traffic safety outside her school for the over 1,300 students. “We've had tons of instances where there's almost been wrecks, like very close calls,” says Wood. Mica Mountain principal Nemer Hassey says part of the problem is that Valencia is connected from Houghton to Old Spanish Trail.
