Speeding on w. Allen is getting out of hand
Speeding on w. Allen is getting out of hand
Hi! I’m writing to request improvements to 2nd street westbound between Rogers and I-69. I drive this route at various times of day and the congestion is excessive, with stop-and-go traffic being the norm. I am not a city-planner, but a main cause of this seems to be (from a driver’s perspective) the number of traffic lights in the area. What steps can the city do to improve this issue? Thank you, Dane Miles
The street parking on N Walnut St, between 11th and 14th, is causing an issue with safe travel. Because there are no painted parking spaces, cars are packed in more tightly than they should be which is also causing many vehicles to encroach into the driving lane because they can’t properly fit.
temporary speed bumps were placed in Broadview neighborhood during the intersection closure of Tapp/Country Club and Rockport. These speed bumps should be removed as they were temporary and the newly improved intersection is open.
Several complaints have been filed regarding the speeding and noise level of Tow Time Towing Company trucks. We are seeing a reoccurrence of these concerns during the past 2 weeks.
When you are heading north on Rogers and approaching 1st Street, the stop sign is getting tough to see due to the trees along that stretch.
North side of Hawthorne Dr./E. 1st St. intersection: When trying to turn from southbound Hawthorne onto 1st St., it is difficult to see oncoming westbound traffic on 1st St., due to the overgrown foliage in the landscape strip in front of 1127 E. 1st St. There's approx. 60' from the overgrowth to the intersection & with cars traveling 30mph, there is very little reaction time if you pull onto 1st. I've almost caused a wreck twice, because I couldn't see far enough past the foliage without nosing out into the intersection. This is an unsafe condition & this foliage should be cut down.
Street sign at 2nd and Henderson has been missing for at least the past several months.
The intersection of ST45 and Range/Pete Ellis Drive is crazy. Turn lanes are for right turns not left turns. The added traffic from the hospital has only made it worst.
The towing company Tow Time at 2620 S. Rogers street. Tow trucks travel down Fairview to W. 7th several times a day racing their engines a driving very fast even when school is in session. The noise from these trucks is so loud that you can still hear them as the get to the down town area. Our neighborhood has complained to the owner and to individual drivers this past summer. The noise is a disruption and a nuisance.
