No street sign at grant and. 2nd
pothole is located on East Kensington Park Drive just west of my home at 3131 E. Kensington Park Drive. More specifically, it is at the south end of the island in the cul de sac midway down Kensington Park Drive as you travel east.
With the realignment of Weatherstone Drive where it meets Hillside, please consider smoothing out the low curb at the entrance to Olive Street on the other side of Hillside--maybe just a little asphalt ramp. I cross Hillside there on my bicycle every day. It's rough on a bike if you can't get over to go across on the manhole cover on the left side. It's the only place in town I ever got a flat on my commuter bike. With the realignment it will be harder to get over to the manhole cover "ramp" when going south. Thanks for considering this opportunity to fix a nagging problem.
Edge of asphalt is deteriorated and narrows the road surface unsafely for two-way traffic.
Several large potholes from Covenater to Maxwell.
(Not really "street repair" but I couldn't find the right category): The eastbound Stop sign on Maxwell @ Highland, in Elm Heights, is OFTEN ignored. I have seen cars race right through it without even the pretense of slowing down. On foot, I have jumped out behind the car as it sped on, waving my hands and shouting "STOP SIGN!!", and once a driver waved an acknowledgment. Another time, driving north on Highland, I turned and followed the offender, honking and blinking my lights hoping s/he would notice that someone had noticed and be alert next time. The Stop sign is quite visible, not obscured by overhanging trees, so I am stumped. But I wonder if it could be moved closer to the road, enlarged, painted (the post too) a more neon/catchy red, and/or moved to the CENTER of the intersection (tricky for the snowplows, I know), and/or a "Stop-sign alert" sign added well before, or maybe it could be removed altogether with appropriate alerts posted for the north/south drivers, which might be safer than assuming people will stop. This is a potentially lethal situation for drivers, bikers, and walkers in a very pedestrian-heavy neighborhood. Thanks.
Road (asphalt) is cracked from one side to another - all of its width, right in front of 1630 S Ira St. Please fix/pave/take corrective measures for crack not to become worse.
Metal sheets covering holes from gas line work have been moved exposing holes in the road. Hazardous!
