Many drivers on Walnut are running stop light at Hillside/Walnut. Ms. Roska feels giving some tickets in the area would cause people to obey the traffic light.

Mr. Parks contacted us couple mo.'s ago regarding traffic light @ GE entrance off Curry--semi's/cars both running light, running others off road--explained it was County's jurisdiciton. This time called b/c has been calling County for months--fed up! This time he added problem w/ speeding and reckless driving all up and down Curry. Again, reiterated what part of Curry is County & what's City--told him I'd forward complaint to BPD to see if they could patrol area more & ticket.
There is a "contraption" parked on the street.
Mr. Barr is irate that there aren't a few parking spots reserved for citizens in the Farmers Market lot. He feels the City is treating the citizenry with disrespect by not reserving 5-6 of the Farmers Market spaces for citizens doing business in City Hall.
Mr. Osbourne says he has contacted Transit 3-4 times to complain city buses are not stopping at stop sign behind Wal-Mart. Transit has told him they will talk to the drivers, but he says nothing has changed. Today, he said bus #9724, route 3E ran through this stop sign.
when going east on 3rd st, after smith road you cant hardley turn in to edwards square, across from office lounge. traffic heading towards you from the east and traffic coming from behind you is dangerous. because theres no turn lane there. its a busy road, and is a real proble. i work in edwards square and we hear constant worries about it. it really needs to be adressed. thanks. if you have any questions you can call me at 812 -272-8721. thanks mr hiestand
The curve from Hopewell to 7th is dangerous enough but now the homeowner at the corner has a permanently parked old van sitting next to the house and street. It is almost impossible to see around the van to get around that curve. Kids play on the street while cars fly up and down 7th st. I'm just afraid someone is going to get run over. I'm sure they are not supposed to have broken down vehicles parked in their yards. Thank you for your time
New bicycle sign completely blocks the line of sight for oncoming traffic in both lanes. You need to pull out so far to see around the sign, you are already in the travel lane. Bicycle station sign needs to be turned the other direction parallel to Dunn street, removed, or lowered so that it does not block line of sight.
I'm concerned that with the closure of Walnut St. Pike/Rhorer Rd., there will be a lot of traffic diverging through the Sherwood Oaks neighborhood, particularly on Allendale. We already have a lot of problems with individuals speeding down that street, and this will only make it worse. Is there any way that there can be the temporary speed bumps installed like there is through the Broadview & Summit areas right now? We would greatly appreciate it!!
I live near the intersection of Arden and High. I have personally witnessed several cars blow through the 4-way stop without stopping or slowing down. There are a lot of children in this neighborhood, including many who walk to Child's school. Please consider some sort of traffic warning/calming/etc at this intersection. Thanks, Sarah Schmiechen
