Potholes, Other Street Repair

1010 S Jordan AVE

Case Date:
12/12/2014

The road that leads to the Jordan parking garage (University Road?)has a large "pothole" that resulted in a blown tire. I would think this is a university maintained road since it is not on Jordan, but rather the side road that leads to the parking garage, but IU claims it is the city's responsibility. I have attached pictures. It appears this is from construction and/or utility work rather than natural erosion, and there is a sharp and steep edge/drop-off. I did not have a ruler with me, but used a standard size sharpie to show the depth. Using a ruler afterwards, the hard edge/cliff is approximately 5 inches. In the dark at night there is no lighting, and when making a left onto that road there is no way to see it with your headlights. In addition to requesting that the hole be repaired, I would like to receive reimbursement for the damaged (flat, non repairable)tire. Thank you for your time.

A very large pothole, probably at least 14 inches across and maybe almost a foot deep. Difficult to avoid due to congestion in that area. On east side of the road.

Small crater in the road. West side of Rogers (southbound lane) just north of Lois Lane. You'll know it when you hit it or see it. Large hole that keep growing. Not sure if this is City or County, just hoping someone can patch it. Thanks!

The alley way behind Mother Hubbard's Cupboard (1100 W Aleen St) needs gravel. Traction is limited right now, but we need to be able to have trucks move through without getting stuck. Thank You

Potholes, Other Street Repair

910 S Highland AVE

Case Date:
11/20/2014

(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.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

408 E Smith AVE

Case Date:

407 S Grant St.: there is a serious and dangerous condition along Grant St. between Smith and 2nd streets. You crews have left 3ft trenches along a poured sidewalk. I've personally seen 3 cars fall into these trenches and receive damage. Your signage is insufficient. Please remedy this situation now or residents being hampered by this nuisance will be forced to take legal action against the city. This report will serve as notice that you are aware of the hazard you have created by failing to fix the road in a timely manner.

1400 E Atwater AVE

Case Date:

There are many potholes in the alleyways that lead to our parking area. Many people use these alleys to get to their houses and the garbage trucks go on them weekly. Many of us have gotten flat tires due to them and the AAA people have said that other people that use these alleyways have called about flat tires from the potholes. There are quite a few potholes. These will become very dangerous during winter seeing that two of them are at the end of the alleyway leading onto Hunter Ave and Atwater Ave. If they could be fixed ASAP that would be great!

Potholes, Other Street Repair

2002 S Georgetown RD

Case Date:
10/16/2014

This area needs a street drain. Every time it rains water pools at this corner making it difficult for people walking down the sidewalk to cross the street. During the winter, this turns into a block of ice making it very dangerous for people crossing the street. Children in this neighborhood walk to Child's Elementary School and have to jump over the puddle of water when it's warm and try not to fall on the block of ice that form here during the winter. Please install a street drain in this location. Thank you.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

701 E Summit View PL

Thanks for repaving Azalea, but they are smoothing out the speed humps. If anything, we need more traffic calming, including humps at each island, since people fly through here, especially heading west. Smoothing out those humps is likely going to increase speeds even more in this stretch of Azalea, making our street dangerous.
