Perhaps a review of 7th Street from Eagleson to the intersection of Union is needed. Observations: There is only 1 "no parking" sign on the south side of the road for east bound traffic - it is located at the eastern end near Union - not helpful or visible to those entering from Eagleson. There are no bike share markings on the road, nor centerline. I have observed people turning left from Rose going west who behave as though this a one way race track westbound until met with oncoming traffic with interesting results. The east end pedestrian/bike lane design is atrocious as well being offset causing confusion for drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists alike. I suppose if everyone has to stop, traffic will cease at least momentarily until some brave soul ventures into that mess. That is to say if they do stop instead of blowing thru the pedestrian crossing, or stop sign. Food for thought for the next road use checkup.
The asphalt has collapsed next to the sewer drain and water is flowing into the sewer through the hole, eroding the area under it. (This is the second drain in this neighborhood I have reported for the same issue. It seems the contractor might have used less-than-standard practices in preparing the street drains here.)
There are multiple drainage issues in this area. The 2 outlets from the stormwater drain are partially covered (just west of the storm drain across Monon Dr). I’m not sure if the drain under the road is clear. The area floods readily with any rain. The ditch that runs west is blocked by leaves where it goes under a driveway and by debris closer to clear creek (at the end of hillside). Because this is one of the only drains/outlets/drainage ditches in the area it’s important to get it cleaned out. Can you help?
S. Bainbridge Drive, perhaps the most important street for Sherwood Oaks after Allendale, has been deteriorating badly ever since I moved to the neighborhood 2 1/2 years ago. It has been patched and patched and patched, but the breakup goes on. Really in need of a general redo.
Tapp Road in the west bound lane, just west of the Kingdom Hall there is a large pothole on the right (north side) of the lane forming.
E. Sheridan Drive has some potholes forming between S. Manor and S. Woodlawn.
Broken flower light Wire is exposed and possibly still hot. Near the bus stop
Growth is higher than 12 inches. Spillways ways are filled in invasive species and along fence rows is not taken care of.
Please consider measures to prevent this area from being overwhelmed by excessive parking on our street. As many as 20 cars are parking here on a given day. Thank you!
