Pulling out of alley near 1117 S. Rogers is dangerous because of all the overgrowth.
Pulling out of alley near 1117 S. Rogers is dangerous because of all the overgrowth.
Recurring problem during warm weather months. Property owner at 1117 S. Rogers does not trim shrubs making it difficult to see oncoming traffic for motorists pulling onto Rogers from neighborhood alley. Shirley Schooley (1118 S. Madison) is usually the one who calls in and reports it.
There is roadway overgrowth next to 1100 N. Lincoln. There is also a problem with overgrowth in the alleyway entrance btwn 1119 & 1000 N. Lincoln. There is a dead limb in the alleyway very high up. One limb fell in front of her car while driving down the alley.
This large pine tree has been overgrowing the sidewalk (on right side of Landmark facing 3rd) for years. I walk this block everyday, and this chokepoint, where narrow sidewalk and street blend together, pushes me dangerously close to oncoming traffic. For fast traffic heading north on Landmark, this is a blind bend for anyone approaching from other direction. A large truck or van could easily sideswipe a pedestrian trying to step around tree limbs.
Regarding uReport Case #183611: Nothing has been done about this issue (last communication was on 5/1/2023 by Michael Stewart). The issue: What looks like Bushes growing on the northwest corner of the intersection at High St and E Southdowns Dr are obstructing the view of cars on Southdowns wanting to pull out onto High Street. We cannot see cars in the southbound lane of High St until the last second before they reach the stop sign. Many drivers on High St don't come to a complete stop UNLESS they see a car on Southdowns. Please cut the bushes back so those of us on Southdowns can see what's coming from the north and cars on High St can see us further in advance, BEFORE they reach the stop sign.
The landscaping at 1028 S. Woodcrest (maybe across street - was not sure which corner) is causing a LOS issue for pulling out onto Woodbine
Several trees on east side of Park Ridge East by commercial buildings along sidewalk are overgrown and not only prevent pedestrians from walking on sidewalk but pedestrians trying to cross Park Ridge toward Hagan are unable to see traffic going north on Park Ridge. Trees need to be trimmed.
SW corner of North Woodburn & W. 15th Street - line of sight issue as you are going north on Woodburn looking to the west on 15th Street.
Trees and parked cars in line of site when looking to to turn on from smith to College
trees and bushes obstruct view at Highland and Azalea lane. Sorry, I previously submitted report and erronously typed Azalea and Keri Marie. Highland was what I meant (runs past YMCA and Bloomington Learning Center)
