When trying to make a left turn from North Dunn onto Old 37 it is difficult to see westbound oncoming traffic on Old 37 due to tall vegitation. I had to pull out almost into the Old 37 and still could not be sure the road was clear. This, plus the speed of on-coming traffic eastbound on Old 37 makes this a dangerous spot.
The people living here have 4 cars and now a Pontoon Boat which is parked on the street. Usually a total of five vehicles. One in the yard, the boat and two other vehicles parked on the street.
In 2020/2021 a multi-use path was installed directly behind the Woodlands condos, which included a raised cement median/crosswalk. This raised median has caused multiple problems since construction. Various vehicles frequently strike the raised median while attempting to navigate the area. In addition, the turns into and out of The Woodlands and The Stands are challenging due to the construction of the raised median. From my perception, this raised median has made the area more dangerous for pedestrians, vehicles, and cyclists. It was my understanding that the original intent by the city was to make the area safer, not more treacherous. Furthermore, the bus stop was relocated and is now closer to my home than it was before, which again causes more dust and noise pollution inside my home and the surrounding area. Clearly, an all-way stop is needed to provide predictable safety for all roadway users. Please note that neighbors have been in favor of traffic control at the intersection of Rogers Rd, Winding Brook and The Stands. In the last several years, neighbors have noticed the intersection has become less safe. I recently checked the Crash Data Dashboard and found the map to be very hard to read. I would appreciate a detailed and up to date report of the number and type of crashes reported at this intersection. Lastly, I am aware that currently, the construction that’s underway will be completed eventually, and the traffic pattern that I am referring to in this report will resume.
The northbound traffic at Kinser Pike and the bypass gets so backed up many evenings past Brookdale Drive. It takes so many lights to get through. If you’re going straight, the majority of the cars are making right turns, especially now with the amount of student apartments that are along the south end of Kinser Pike. There needs to be a right turn lane on that side of the intersection. Also, on the opposite side of the intersection, the right turn lane and the straight lane of southbound. Kinser Pike holds a lot of water when it rains due to the new white curb with the white poles that has been installed there. Those are really an eyesore, but it’s causing water to flood when we have rain.
