3rd / Jordan has flashing red on Jordan and flashing yellow on 3rd. This is very dangerous because 1) people on Jordan don't know it isn't a 4-way stop and 2) pedestrians can't get across the street. It should be flashing red for everybody.
The new traffic pattern at 3rd and Jordan (due to construction) is extremely dangerous. Traffic on Jordan has a flashing red light, traffic on 3rd a flashing yellow -- drivers on Jordan cannot tell that the traffic on 3rd doesn't stop. Not only is there a lot of confusion at this already very busy intersection, but people crossing the street can't see the yellow light at all and cannot cross safely!!
Due to the Sare/Rogers close, lots of traffic is coming through Hyde Park along Olcott. Now that school is out, there are more small children out playing and I saw one nearly hit by fast car yesterday. Could we put one of those signs up to show the driver speed relative to the actual speed? I really appreciate the police cars driving through or stopping but when they aren't here, people speed again.
Corner of 3rd and Jordan has extremely erratic traffic pattern. Most drivers treat it as a four way stop but many don't. As a result, it is very difficult to judge when to proceed if traveling north and south on Jordan. In addition, if east/west is treated as a flashing yellow, you can sit for several minutes waiting to proceed north or south.
The "Knightridge Rd" street sign has been missing for months.
People either do not see the new stop sign placed at 10th and Smith Rd or are just ignoring it. I have nearly been t-boned coming on and off Smith onto 10th, and had people try to drive around me when turning right in the turn lane onto Smith from 10th because they don't understand why I am stopping. There is a sign on 10th indicating a new stop sign, but it does not seem like enough because people are just driving through it as if it's not there. I am not sure what else can be done. Maybe more signage indicating a new stop sign? A police presence enforcing it? An announcement in the newspaper? Something needs to be done because it has made the intersection much more dangerous (though if people noticed the sign it would actually improve the daily backups at that junction, so I do like the idea of the stop sign!). I don't want people getting tickets left and right obviously, but we need something else to indicate there is a new sign there. Thank you! Best wishes, Rebecca Shindel
Left turn signal at Rogers and 17th seems to not be working if you are turning west onto 17th from Rogers I live nearby and often go down 17th this way and the left turn arrow never seems to precede the regular green light for north-south traffic
There is no sign instructing vehicles leaving the Jordan Avenue garage driveway that they are entering a roundabout, so most of them turn left by entering the roundabout and immediately turning left. This causes near-head-on collisions as vehicles driving south on Jordan follow the roundabout around to enter the parking garage driveway.
Problem at corner of Brownridge and Smith Rd. It is difficult to turn from Brownridge into Smith and onto 3rd ST because of growth (bushes) at the corner.
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.
