Part of the problem is a lack of lines and signage indicating where the crosswalks are. Is this something that needs to be requested or how does one go about getting new crosswalk pavement markings done?

Just a terribly designed area. But, you can request a warrant study through 311 for additional crosswalks or pedestrian corridors. Or a 311 service request could also request better signage and markings.
