Other: Storm drain at walnut st pike and heather drive not picking up water runoff coming down the hill from south. Runoff deposits large amounts of gravel in the turn lane to heather dr. Reported this several months ago. Drain pipe going a cross the road was cleaned. Real problem is that drain on walnut pike does not catch the water, it swirls by the drain and turns into heather and goes down that drain. Slowing for the turn allows gravel to be deposited in the road. Makes a potentially dangerous turn for cars slowing to turn. Especially when it "ices" up.

We talked about extending this curb further south to correct the problem. I'd also like to have the pipes cleaned out again.
This has been passed along to Kevin Housel who has created a Work Order and is planning on extending the curb south to route the water into the inlet better.
I reread the details from Frank and made a site visit. I believe we can extend a concrete gutter and curb a little further south and get the inlet in S Walnut Pike to start working better. This will help intercept more of the water before it reaches Heather Dr.
Scott D. televised the pipes and passed it along to Tony Eads to clean the pipes. Scott there was a significant amount of sand in the pipe, reducing the pipe capacity.
We checked the site yesterday afternoon. We are having the downstream pipe inspected. There is a fitting on this section of pipe instead of a structure which could be causing some blockage and capacity reduction.
Phil, This was originally assigned to me. Since citizen said they have previously reported this and pipe under road had been cleaned but was still having a problem, I thought I would pass it to you, first, rather than T&D.
