The cicada speed bumps are so cute! At first glance Ithpughtthey were the bolts that have been sticking out of the street since February but no! These cicada speed bumps next to the car speed bumps are so nice. Just like how they don't slow the cars down at all these new cicada speed bumps don't have any effect on the bugs whatsoever. Instead they are a trip hazard and are extremely dangerous to both bugs and people.
If a house owner piled things in their driveway and use the public street for parking, and the other drivers have to drive on the other side of the street to get around. In case any accident happened while driving on the other side of the street, who will be responsible? Could city give this person a suggestion to clean their driveway for parking and make the public street a save place to drive? This situation happened in Park Ridge. Thanks for your attention.
Smith Rd often has folks speeding between E Third and Moore's Pike. There are no stop signs and no traffic monitoring... and too many folks just whiz along. It can be dangerous checking the mailbox or crossing the road and animals crossing the road are in peril. Need traffic monitoring and better placement of speed limit signage (the sign near the Lutheran Church is not nicely visible/not effectively placed....and it is the only one). The intersection at Smith and 3rd is horrendous. It is very difficult making a left from Smith to E 3rd and cars behind grow impatient. Thank you.
The left turn lane that was painted on the street where Hillside turns onto South Highland is invisible. We’re waiting for an accident to happen. Please paint the street ASAP. Thank you.
I have noticed since this road has been repaved that cars are driving extremely fast down Cory Lane. I have a 4-year-old and a cat that sometimes play in the front yard, and it is very concerning to me that people are flying down the road. There are children that live in both houses in front of me that I'm sure would enjoy playing in their yards, but their safety is questionable with people driving the way they are. Soon enough all the children, mine included, will be school-age and waiting for a bus, which scares the hell out of me. I'm not sure what the answer is. Maybe putting up a speed limit sign? A sign that says children live nearby and to slow down? Even a few speed bumps would be great. Anything would be better. I appreciate that the road has been redone, and it's very nice, but it has definitely lead to frequent speeding.
Traffic heading south on Smith Rd continues to be backed up all the way to the intersection of 10th St and Smith due to the 4-way stop sign intersection at Smith and Morningside and the stop light at Smith and 3rd St. Cars turning left do not have a green turn signal and must wait until traffic going in the opposite direction is clear, causing major back ups. Many vehicles turn left onto 3rd St heading east so a green turn arrow really is needed, along with a turn lane.
Stop sign westbound on W. Allen St. is covered by trees, and I've seen 3 vehicles in the past week not stop, almost causing me to get in an accident.
People park on Driscoll at corner of Washington AT the stop sign. Essentially makes the street one way. Also you can’t see the speed limit sign in the Driscoll block from walnut to Washington. New building also has no curbing painting for corner of alley along with fire hydrant !!!
These lights need to be synced, terrible traffic backup for no reason morning and night
This light is very impractical. Traffic is non-stop on 3rd street and for this light to be on a timer does not make sense for traffic of the environment. I get stopped at it morning and afternoon with barely ever any cars waiting at the intersection. 3rd /Woodcrest / Hillsdale
