Maroon Pontiac grand prix BLOCKING THE SHARED Drive/alley
Maroon Pontiac Grand Prix blocking a shared drive(4 homes use it) and has been there for over an hour already. I can't use my car because it is blocked. Temporary plates on the vehicle, as seen in photo
There is almost always a truck blocking one lane or another around this area in the a.m., but this is a bit ridiculous — two at once taking up most of both lanes with just enough space for a car to squeeze through. This was about 8 a.m. on 3/21/23. One of the drivers lost control of a keg and it rolled across the street, too. (Apologies for poor quality, this was taken quickly while stopped at the stop sign. I waited there while he got control of the runaway keg.)
The corner of Post Rd as you're approaching Staats on the right hand side is so overgrown with trees cars cannot be in the right lane. We walk to school with our daughter and have often had to get out of the way of traffic b/c this road is effectively 1 lane at the moment. 2 homes, the one at the corner of Staats and Post and the one at the corner of post and "Hollywood" both have shrubs/trees that impede traffic/walkers and make it even more dangerous than it should be. If the owners aren't willing to change this landscaping the city should have the ability to cut considering that the shrubs are covering no less than 3 ft into the street. This is dangerous for cars, walkers, and bike riders in the neighborhood. MUST BE ADDRESSED.
the alleyway behind my house is blocked by a van @ 800 N Lincoln st
Blue sedan-type vehicle parked in the roadway, making it hard to traverse. There are also several cars parked on the roadway along N Hillsdale Drive, which makes travel difficult - especially around the traffic light.
The person at this house has had two snow plows stored on the street since winter. The one plow is fairly wide and it is a hazard with the cars parked on the other side of the road.
Construction and deliveries blocking parts of 14-13th streets and Dunn. In one instance a semi trailer was blocking Dunn and there was just one guy with no sign *kinda* directing traffic.
There is a parked trailer in the street, without sufficient reflection or license plates. I do not know who owns it but it has been there for months. It is moved a few feet either way on occasion, but it presents a major safety issue at night and is quite unsightly for a residential neighborhood.
No signage at left turn on 17th Street indicating Jackson Street road closure. Dangerous for cars turning left from 17th Street.
