Bushes at the west end of the alley are too tall and need to be trimmed back for drivers to see to exit the alleyway.
Bushes at the west end of the alley are too tall and need to be trimmed back for drivers to see to exit the alleyway.
Hedges are preventing people from standing safely at the bus stop. Additionally, they are impeding line of sight and causing vehicles to pull into Graham to see east traveling traffic. Wall, is collapsing into the easement and preventing people from street parking.
The southwest corner of Lexington and Longview has a series of small trees and honeysuckle vines that obstruct the view of traffic. I was headed north on Lexington, stopped at the corner, and attempted to turn left onto Longview. I almost hit a car that was traveling east on Longview because of those trees and vines. This is an annual issue when the foliage grows.
The trees to the left (north) of the entrance/exit from the Animal Shelter and Recycle center on S. Walnut make it very tough to see traffic coming from the north headed south on Walnut. The speed limit there is 40mph, so cars are going 45-50mph along that stretch of road. The trees with leaves on them just about totally obscure the view of traffic coming from the north when you are trying to exit from the area. Can someone go check out the line of sight from this exit and see if the trees could be trimmed back in some way?
At the intersection of Circle Dr and Ruby lane, 8 large plots of very tall decorative grass, along the Ruby Lane side of the property at 1717 Circle Dr, block the view of oncoming traffic from the east. These need to be removed.
Overgrown shrubbery causing line of sight issue at corner of 11th and N. Walnut. It's growing at base of business sign. Position of shrubbery causes cars turning left onto one way to pull up pretty far to see and risk being hit by cars turning onto 11th street.
I have lived on South Park Avenue for over a year and have found that the brush and foliage at 1200 South Park Ave (at the corner of South Park Ave and Grimes) is becoming a hazard for those turning out of South Park onto Grimes. The foliage has become so overgrown that it is very difficult to see the traffic coming from the left when you are stopped at the intersection and about to turn onto Grimes. You have to edge out quite far without being able to see the oncoming traffic. It is also very difficult to see South Park Ave. (and any potential cars turning out of the street) when you are traveling East along Grimes. The inhabitants of the home are not known within the neighborhood and so no one feels comfortable asking the owners/tenants to trim their trees and foliage. I am concerned that as the foliage continues to grow unabated that there could be a serious accident at this intersection. Not only is this a concern for those of us who live on South Park Ave., but for those who drive down our road each day to pickup and drop off their children at Templeton Elementary.
Overgrown bushes blocking 921 Hunter Ave
Bushes overgrown around property adjacent to Atwater make it impossible to see oncoming traffic. Drivers traveling north on Clifton must pull into traffic on Atwater to see around the bushes.
A tree limb/foliage blocks the line of sight just north of S. Spicewood Lane @ busy S. Sare Road. Exiting S. Spicewood Lane onto Sare (turning north) is precarious. Also, yesterday the "Tree Work" orange sign just south of this intersection blocked the view from S. Spicewood Lane. This tree (and temporary sign) are unsafe for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians in order to exit S. Spicewood Ln. Also, the new Pedestrian Crossing sign is blocked on the approach up the hill from the north on S. Sare.
