Regardless of the side you walk on, you will not see traffic approaching from behind.

It is not that hard to do and all of your problems will be gone. Maybe tell your neighbors too. Us bikers are not going away. It is not just a walking trail so get over that right away. I mentioned this to the people at Ezell about maybe putting up signs asking walkers to walk on the opposite side but like the rest of the recommendations I have made for the safety of our community it falls on deaf ears. Good luck.
