Speed bumps are too large to accommodate 25 mph which is the posted speed limit
117 S. Heritage Rd. A friend visited this morning. I stood by my door to see her back up from my driveway, two cars approached. Those two expected she surely will yell, they just keep going, and my poor friend who can’t see through the vehicle parked on the street, just keep backing. I was holding my breath, luckily those two drivers kindly stopped and let her go first. Oh, my goodness, thanks God again. When the inspector was here, I almost offered her to sit in my 2001 Toyota Camry to take a picture. I can see everything clearly when I stand by my driveway, but when I sit in that low sit, I can’t see anything in the back of neighbor’s vehicle. Sooner or later there ought to be an accident. I just wonder who’s responsibility going to be? Why is so hard to deal with this problem? Also I noticed more cars parked along the street. We are not too far from IU, and have two bus routes to IU also. It’s closer to park here than Stadium, besides it’s free. Oh, my!
street light is out. dangerous and hard to get in the neighborhood
Traveling eastbound on 2nd Street, when preparing to turn right onto College, there is a "No Turn On Red" sign with a street light behind it. The light isn't shielded, and because of this, it's nearly impossible to read at night. Please see attached photo.
Alley is being used as an extended-hour parking lot for multiple vehicles, particularly in the evening, making access difficult.
Distracting flag signage by roads
There is significant sediment tracking along N Arlington Rd down to the 17th Street roundabout. It appears it may be coming from the new jobsite, but the roadway is a complete mess. Please let the Planning and Transportation know about the sediment concern and if possible a street sweeper probably needs to get this cleaned up. Thank you!
Due to efforts to calm traffic on Hawthorne and Maxwell traffic has increased considerably on Sheridan and Southdowns. Please provide both immediate (temporary) and long term tools to calm traffic to avoid a car hitting a pedestrian, biker, etc. on the bike paths on the same road.
Lines need repainted on street
Three cars have been parked in the alley for several days now. I need to use that alley to access my parking spot on the side of my house. There is usually frequent traffic through that alley so I am sure it is a safety concern too.
