Blocked Street

The barrier in the west bound lane of Country Club west of the Rogers light blocks too much road. I know you're trying to discourage people from going down Country Club and cutting through the neighborhood but the fact is that we are going to do it. Right now turning west from northbound Rogers leaves very little room if someone is in the Country Club left turn onto nb Rogers. Please consider moving that barrier mostly to the side of the road and grass, not in the road. There are going to be accidents from people turning west and not noticing until it's too late how little road is available if cars are in the left turn lane.

Our office is located at 1351 W. Tapp Road, right at the barricades for the Tapp & Rockport Road project. We are having trouble with people speeding through our parking lot. Some think they can go through the parking lot to get to the Autism Outreach lot and back to Tapp Road. This time of year, all of our spaces are full and our parking lot is busy enough with actual business traffic. We don't object to people having to turn around after they ignore the road closed sign at the roundabout. We do object to their speeding through our parking lot. Is there some assistance we can get with this? Thank you sincerely.

The road closed barricade on Rockport (traveling southwest) and Rogers is too much in the road that buses and other large vehicles are having difficulty turning the corner from southbound Rogers onto Rockport when cars are at the intersection (on Rockport) waiting for the light. It is assumed that vehicles need to be up at the intersection in order to trip the light for Rockport travelers. Despite the closure, the road is heavily traveled due to the various neighborhoods and Summit Elementary (summer school?). Being a resident of the Adams Hill neighborhood, I travel through this intersection daily. If the barricade can be moved off the road more, that would be an easy fix. However I like that it makes it obvious to travelers that the road is closed, as I do not want even more traffic through our neighborhood than we already have. My suggestion is to alter the light-trip indicators. If the cars traveling northeast on Rockport can be further back to trip the light, it would allow cars to weave through the barricades in single file when it is their turn. This also means there should be a "No Turn on Red" for southbound Rogers. A solution would also need to allow for those in the neighborhood across Rogers to come through the light onto southbound Rockport. The traffic from that direction is minimal. My thought for those traveling from that direction would be to have their side trip individually and the lights would need to be green one direction at a time. If the closure was only for a month or two, it would not be much of an issue. However with the closure going until near the end of the year and school starting in August, this intersection will need addressed as the traffic (buses and parents) to and from Summit Elementary is quite measurable. Thanks for your consideration.

10th Street SPEA crosswalk literally blocks street for long periods of time during the day causing vehicle backups. Needs to have a timed signal or be an over or underpass ideally or SOMETHING to prevent regular backups. Makes no sense to clog traffic to the degree when crosswalks at lights are nearby. Yes, it's on campus but until there is a different route 10th will be used heavily by cars needing to actually move. Thank you for ANY improvement that can be made.

For over a month, a service type truck has been parked on Forrester St. in the first block north of Rogers Road on the right side. I reported this several weeks ago and the owners apparently moved it a short distance and a little further from the corner. The truck is very large, back doors are always wide open and obviously has some type of industrial equipment inside and a large vent on the top. Is this legal to warehouse a service vehicle on a residential street? Please either respond to me with what, if anything, is or could be done. Thank you!

Every time there is an IU sporting event or the neighboring students have a party, people park on both sides of our narrow street and block us in. Is there anyway to put “No parking” signs on the south side of the street (Martha St.)?
