The southwest corner of 3rd and Walnut has a curb ramp that is too high. It's one inch and shouldn't be over 1/2." So if a person with a rollator is going to up that ramp, their wheels hit and it the top goes forward and the wheels don't go up. This happened to a blind person I was escorting. It needs an asphalt patch to smooth it out and make it traversable.
The sidewalk has big areas of lifting due to the tree the city planted. I'd like to be able to keep the tree and maybe the sidewalk can be "shaved" to make it smoother for walking.
uneven sidewalk
The sidewalk on Stands Drive (Eastside of 3401 S. Ashwood Drive) is in terrible shape (crumbled gravel). The problem exits on S. Ashwood on the north side of the property. We reported the condition of sidewalk over ten years ago. Really.
The green street signs as S Woodlawn and E Wylie fell down from the poll. We put it back, but it seems like a vigorous shake will make it fall back down. It needs to be attached more securely.
sidewalk bridge handrail top pieces are loose - at least 2 dozen screws have rusted out. please replace with galvanized screws.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk near 902 S Lincoln. A child's foot could get stuck in it, it is definitely dangerous.
There is a small pothole near the west curb at the intersection of S Washington St and E Smith Ave. I have observed a motorized wheelchair get stuck in the pothole when attempting to cross the road. Do to accessibility issues, immediate repair would be appreciated. Thank you.
I reported this last fall and was advised a contract and materials were on order to correct the situation. The guard rail at the intersection of S. Henderson and Winslow is badly damaged. I was concerned last year and still am that it may become a hazard during snowy, icy and slick roads.
