Traffic Suggestions:

Other: I want to report a suggestion I feel would be helpful to the neighborhood of Sycamore Knolls. I live on Arden Dr, and believe the Arden Dr/High St. intersection is becoming more and more dangerous with the influx of young families moving in. As the only stop sign on that stretch of High Street, year after year I see near misses with pedestrians and cars at this intersection. I believe that if reflection strips or retarder strips were laid down at this 4 way stop more people would be aware of the stop sign being there and make a complete stop. Please let me know how I can move this issue forward, also on the south east side of the 4 way stop the tree limbs at times cover the stop sign upon approaching the intersection.

Sent Ms. Drone the following email and coordinated items with Street Department. Thank you for taking the time to submit a uReport with your concerns and suggestions for the High Street and Arden all-way stop controlled intersection. I visited the intersection and agree that visibility of the stop sign on the south approach for northbound traffic is partially obstructed by some tree limbs. I asked the City's Street Department to do some trimming to improve that stop sign's visibility, to install "ALL WAY" plaques on the stop sign assemblies, and replace any of the stop signs that may be faded or not meet retroreflectivity standards. My impression was that the pavement markings are in good condition at the High/Arden intersection. Street Department staff is very busy this time of year so they may not be able to immediately take action on these items. Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions or comments.
