Starting the 7th Street Bikeway project is great. I hope we have lots of low-traffic thoroughfares in twon some day. But finish what you started on Allen Street. There is no signs, no flashing beacons, no paint. Nothing that designates the street a low and slow traffic area. Cars drive way faster now with the "improvements" then they did with the hodgepodge pilot. Put some signs up. Paint the street. Put some flashers at the Washington St intersection and the Henderson St intersection. Allen is not finished.
Alley & property easement has been barricaded with 2 fences denying only access to rear of 317 W 14th St. Also denying children straight path to MCYM and Junior High School. Was blocked gated to “keep habitat people from walking by property” 910 N Madison.
At the intersection of Patterson and 2nd street on the southwest corner, there's a tall patch of grass that's a traffic and pedestrian hazard.
The residents of either 727 South Eagleson or 719 South Eagleson use a public access ally way (running between Eagleson and Swain) as parking for cars and large recreational vehicles. It blocks the way for utility service, trash removal, postal delivery, access to property and walking and biking around the neighborhood. Moreover, residents in either of these two homes are blocking parking spots and affecting traffic with green “slow down” signs placed in the street. Both these actions present an over-reach of private citizens in claiming and controlling public space. Please could you investigate and hold these citizens to the rules that we all live by?
There is a black truck "parked" in the driveway that is parked partway in the road,and it's blocking about half of the lane.
The equipment for the cable installation is parked so that the line of sight is blocked. When school starts this will create a very dangerous traffic situation. As it is, it is impossible to pull out of the court safely. Many cars use the court as a turn around.
A truck full of trash has been parked outside of house for months. They live at the house but this is a nice neighborhood and they have a bunch of hoarding things outside house even. The car is parked in front of a stop sign which is super hard to get around when two cars are trying to go opposite directions.
Contractor and personal vehicles are parked all day long in the MIDDLE of the already blocked and crowded roadway. A major safety issue just 100 ft from the BPD offices. All these vehicles should be parked in a public lot or on the actual building site.
Multiple cars are parked lining my residential street I live on and some of them are blocking entry/exit to my private driveway. People are using my street for overflow parking for Switchyard park and no cars are normally allowed to park on the street at all.
