Mr. Crewell is president of the Fritz terrace neighborhood Association. He has two traffic related concers. 1)The residential side of North Kinser, from Marsh north, is not marked with neither yellow curbs nor "No Parking" signs. Sometimes people actually park there, and he feels it should be marked. 2) Within Fritz Terrace, there are no sidewalks. That, coupled with the curvy streets, make a speed limit of 30mph too fast for the neighborhood.
Calling on behalf of Fairview School PTO. They are concerned about traffic on the block of N Fairview between 7th & 8th, especially right before & after school. With parents dropping off & picking up, parking, pulling in & out, etc it is hazardous for the children. Wants to know if that block of Fairview could be made one-way - or if there are other possible solutions. FYI - she is married to HT reporter Steve Hinnefeld.
Can the City explain how a driver of a vehicle is supposed to see cross-traffic on 7th Street from Morton without being in the crosswalk and almost in the intersection? I was headed north on Morton and came to the intersection at 7th where cross traffic now does not stop on 7th. The buildings, trees, and other clutter to either side of the intersection make it very dangerous to see bicycles and traffic coming on 7th Street. I had to completely block the pedestrian crosswalk and approach the intersection to feel safe about my assessment of cross traffic. This is a very bad design. The entire 7th Street project seems poorly conceived and designed. I have witnessed multiple people driving in the bike lanes. Was the budget so low that stop signs and "traffic keep left" signs were not affordable and we ended up with this mess to just make something work? There are a ton of safety issues I have witnessed. Someone is going to get hurt soon it seems, or taken out by a bus mirror.
Please repaint the cross-walks on E 3rd St and College Mall Road, especially in the vicinity of College Mall. I walk almost everywhere, and it is very dangerous to cross major intersections--especially at night--where the cross-walk paint has either rubbed off entirely or faded so as to be barely visible. Thank you.
New paint on 3rd St is already beginning to chip away.
Stop sign (and pole) are missing on SE side of intersection of Kwood and Indiana. Perhaps related to the Homecoming Parade. Report filed on behalf of IU Campus Bus Service. 812-855-8384
Please remove the temporary lane markings on 3rd St between approximately Woodlawn and Swain Hall region. It's unclear for car drivers where the lane exists, and creates a hazard for bus operators. Reported on behalf of IU Campus Bus Service. 812-855-8384
Dashed white line dividing lanes of traffic is almost none-existent west of Jordan on Third.
