Curb cut needed
Curb cut needed
Sidewalk is too steep and irregular for safe power chair operation. I have to use the motorway exposing me to 40mph traffic turning off of College.
Need curb cut at alleyway and realignment of sidewalk grade. This forces me onto the College Ave traffic way.
Old sidewalk is very rough and broken between new repair and new sidewalk connecting 10th & 11th on the West side of College.
Need new curb cut N.W. corner of Kinser & Gourley to match recent curb cut on N E. corner
Sidewalk S. of Parrish Rd. along N. Kinser pike has been heaved up and down by the nearby large tree. Very rough going in my power wheelchair.
Photo looking N. from The Station 11 bldg. at 701 N College. This section of sidewalk, past Scholar's Inn and through the R.R. Underpass where it joins the new Railroad apartments sidewalk is practically unusable. This forces me into the bikeway through the underpass inches from speeding motorists. This is pretty scary in my hard-to-steer-straight power wheelchair.
While traveling West on Kirkwood, just prior to Rogers, on the North side of the street is the curb bump out to protect the parking spots. It needs to be paint yellow ( the curb) to alert motorists about an object in the road. One can easily see that it had been hit by many a tire and rim. Thank you for your consideration to this matter. Randy Craw 812-360-3600
The property owner just south of me added a driveway ramp in September 2013 that completely prevents water runoff on the east side of N. Park Ridge Rd. (My property is #300). Water stands for weeks without draining. It is a traffic hazard - especially now when it completely freezes over. (I spoke with members of the street dept. who were out trying to clear the area during the last storm on Jan. 5/6. They told me they would report it to the dept.). It will be an even more severe health hazard in the spring/summer during mosquito breeding season. I understand the need for the ramp. However, could you persuade this resident to at least partially remove some of the ramp to allow water to effectively drain once again - please? I made a report on this issue in September 2013. According to this program the case was/is closed. However no action was taken and the situation persists.
