Power line and tree down
Power line and tree down
Large tree had a break last Friday (3/12). Two branches fell into the street. Sharifs had to be called to help remove some of the larger pieces. Was told it is close enough to the road that I could get some assistance with removal cost.
There is a house on Sheridan between Maxwell and Jordan on the north/west side of the street that has giant pavers sitting on the roadway in front of the house. They are just right on the pavement, obstructing the road. These are a danger to pedestrians, cyclists, children, and vehicles. Can someone go take a look and understand why there are big pavers on the road surface?
There are branches of a tree that are hanging in the road. I hit the branches, and they almost broke my side mirror. I also started to swerve as a reflex, but into oncoming traffic. My wife also had the same problem on this road, also today. If this doesn’t get fixed soon, it will definitely cause wrecks. It’s on the East side of the road, going north past the bridge.
In the westbound lane of Grimes just west of Woodlawn there is a tree limb hanging down into the road. It is not blocking the street in the sense that it is impassable, but this was the best option it seemed. The branch can hit a car or SUV in the windshield and/or roof as you drive by. It is pretty low and needs removed.
Shrub/bushes need trimmed. Difficult to navigate with two cars on street especially when turning onto to banta.
There used to be a no parking sign on the west side of Grant Street on the block just north of Hillside, but it isn't there anymore. The residents all park on the east side of the street except for some new tenants who don't know about this convention. The extra cars on the west side of the street make the street narrow enough that it would be impassable to fire trucks (and probably even the sanitation trucks).
Fallen tree in the street.
Tree came down last night leaving debris all in the road. 2003 S Sussex or so.
This is a continuing problem at 601 S. Woodlawn (the address above is as close as I could get on your map). Two weeks ago two large dead trees were causing a hazard, dropping limbs. Trees are covered with vines but have been dead for a long time. They continue to drop dead limbs. There is also a bad patch of poison ivy near the sidewalk, creating yet another hazard.
