On work days just before 8 am city work teams leave the garage at Henderson & Miller in mass headed for job sites. It is unfortunate that their timing coincides with a busy time for commuters adding to traffic woes. Could they leave 15 minutes earlier or later?
Now that Rogers Road is closed due to construction of the roundabout at Sare Rd., there has been a significant increase in traffic cutting through the Spicewood neighborhood. That in and of itself is bad enough, but many of the vehicles are speeding or blowing through the stop sign at Spicewood and Round Hill. This is creating a danger for us trying to enter or back out of our driveway, or crossing the street, since we live just over the crest of the hill at the intersection. When we back out of our driveway, we are counting on southbound traffic stopping at the stop sign. If they proceed through the stop sign at 30 mph they may not be able to avoid broad siding us as we back out of our driveway. The same holds true for when we pull in our driveway.
We moved into a new house recently and there is a car parked in front of it on the street. It has been there for months, since we first looked at the house in March. The windows are partly open and the hood is slightly open. It looks to be abandoned. It is in front of our house, which is annoying, but it also jams up the traffic a little bit because it is very close to the entrance to a busy street. Can I have it towed away? We live on S. Highland Avenue just off Hillside. The car is a forest green dodge convertible, I think. I have tried to knock on the neighbor's door to see if they know whose it is but haven't been able to catch them at home, I don't know them otherwise.
I just passed Highway 46 and Walnut. As Walnut comes into town (near McDonalds on the North side) the street lanes are being painted. The painting on Walnut is crazy as there is a giant unused space that will not be used by motorist. They will instead do as they are today and use this area to expedite there dirve to the turn lanes. Someone needs to check this out ASAP.
