400-498 S Jordan Ave

Case Date:
6/17/2012

Earlier this evening I was in the left lane of Atwater, just west of Jordan Ave, and was behind another, taller car. The car in front of me pulled into the right lane, and that's when I realized it had pulled over because there were two cars heading toward us going west on Atwater. I honked, we all slowed down and stopped, then I pulled into the right lane and pulled up to the first car to inform it that this was a one-way street. The man driving it apologized, said he was from out of town and that he had just figured that out. This is not the first time that I have had this problem on Atwater, but it was the first time I actually thought I might have gotten hit. I strongly suggest adding some more obvious signage at both Jordan and Mitchell, which are the only two spots that I've ever noticed cars not heeding the existing traffic signs.

Could some signage and/or barrels be put up to indicate that the right turn lane is closed at the Gordon Pike/South Walnut (southbound) intersection (for those turning west onto Gordon pike)? The barrels cannot be seen until the driver is actually in the very long turn lane. Could have a "get over" arrow back by the animal shelter. Thank you!

I was taking my child to school at University this morning. There has been a crew working on the power lines on 10th street. This morning they seemed to be getting a later start. It was about 8:25 and the trucks were just arriving. We sat for 10 minutes waiting for traffic coming from the east on 10th street. Several children were late to school because it seems the company didn't have a handle on the traffic control. I may have missed it but I saw no one managing traffic at Smith or on the eastside of 10th street. On a school morning, I would expect the crew would be set up and ready to handle the traffic prior to the start of school.

there should be some changes on this intersection. There are no LT lane, but RT lane, which cause people to wait for just one car to take LT, or they use the RT lane to pass the LT lane and go straight, which cause mess in this intersection. 3 directions on this intersection has this problem. You can see easily if you pass by this intersection

366-398 N Pete Ellis Dr

Case Date:

This intersection is getting out of control. Its an accident waiting to happen. People are making up their own rules: driving around cars, forming turning lanes where there shouldn't be (the city's somewhat-recent painting of diagonal lines on Pete Ellis & 10th in front of the Woodbridge Station brick sign is totally ineffective), and drivers turning left to head east on 10th from N Pete Ellis Drive think they have the right of way when confronted with drivers traveling due north on Pete Ellis. This all happens at the intersection of 10th & Pete Ellis. Improvements must be made. Please.

3500-3570 John Hinkle Place

Case Date:
8/21/2013

The crosswalk at John Hinkle Place and 10th St (i.e., stretching across 10th) is extremely dangerous. The white lines are very faded (such that cars may have difficulty seeing them), and cars frequently don't stop or slow down for pedestrians already in the cross walk (not just waiting to cross). Given that this bus stop is also used as an elementary school bus stop, this presents an extremely dangerous situation for young children as well as for adults. If this particular crosswalk could be repainted as soon as possible or (even better) if it could get a button to push for a flashing light while you cross, that would be a huge improvement for this area. Thank you very much for your consideration.

323 E 6th ST

Case Date:

There need to be more signs in the direction opposite one-way traffic that indicate "Wrong Way" or "No entry" for streets perpendicular to 6th Street. Too many people have been driving the wrong way down 6th Street and it is really dangerous. If a person is unfamiliar with the area, there is limited signage that indicates they are driving the wrong way down 6th until they come in contact with another car.

321 S Jordan AVE

Case Date:
9/11/2015

Prior to the road construction,there were arrows indicating that the left lane was a left turn only lane. The right lane is the one to go straight through to Jordan Avenue. Now that the arrow is no longer there, people in the left only lane are also driving straight through Jordan Ave causing mutilple close call accidents. Why is the left lane arrow missing on the pavement?
