The streets around the Cascades Addition neighborhood (Skyline Dr., Cascades Dr., Clover Terrace, Dogwood Ln.) are starting to crumble in many places. The whole neighborhood really needs repaving.
The construction at the corner of 11th and Walnut of the new apartment building has left this area of Walnut hazardous and capable in inflicting vehicle damage even when travelling slowing, especially the utility cut across Walnut which has not been filled in to be even with the road surface. This is the same type of problem that existed at 11th and Rogers but is horizontal across the street instead of diagonal across the intersection. The problem at 11th was fixed but this one needs attention ASAP to prevent damage to vehicles and subsequent claims to the city for that damage. There are also breaks and holes and bumps in the pavement at the crest and going down the other side towards 12th street and so on. Thank you for your always prompt and excellent responses to my reports.
Hole is at side of road on University St at driveway for 700 S Eastside Dr
The corner bump-out on W 3rd at S Fairview juts out too far into the street and cars drive over it which often causes flat tires...two this past Sunday! Since W 3rd is getting fully re-paved soon (because of the sewer replacement work that is finished now) I wonder if you could shave two feet of the bump out? To be clear, I think the bump out needs to be there...it's only the south cement "curb" that needs to be cut short and re-cemented. Thanks, Jaclyn
There is a big soft spot that is now beginning to pump up mud on N. Oolitic Dr at the intersection of W. 11th St. Any chance of getting this fixed?
(see photo) Although this may look like a private driveway, it is not. This is a city alley. My property is 708, 710, and 712 N. Oolitic St. This alley runs behind it. If one looks at a City plot map, it can be seen that this is a city right-of-way running from W. 11th St. to W. 12th St, to 13th, 14th...etc. For the longest time, this alley right-of-way was unused. Then Habitat built some houses on Lindbergh, so the city reopened sections of the alley to be used by the Habitat residents. As you can see, it is paved with gravel. To my knowledge, it has never received another layer since the original. Since all the potholes around the city are being repaired, I am hoping these "potholes" can be as well. There is a large drop off from the blacktop of 12th St and we have practically constant mud in the water holes. Also, as you can see, we have grass growing through. Would it be possible to have some new gravel spread - at least on the lower section where the mud holes are? It would be greatly appreciated.
Wide area falling apart at the corner of Cottage Grove and Walnut Grove. This area has been patched before and may need some more extensive work.
Pothole over hole.
There are several considerable large potholes on High street between 1st and 2nd street if I remember correctly. They are on the east side of High street so the side that heads north.
Large, damaging potholes in the alley leading to several homes and apartments need to be repaired. These will only get worse as the weather turns colder. Alley beside 407 N. Park.
