This sidewalk is a mess with missing parts.
This sidewalk is a mess with missing parts.
The yellow paint on the curb adjacent to my driveway has (largely) worn away, and cars now park right up to my driveway on 2nd st, which is very busy. I can't see cars coming from either direction when parked cars take these (illegal) positions. I would like the yellow paint to be redone so that drivers would more often leave clearance around my driveway.
Concrete sidewalk deteriorated in two sections here on west side of Aswood Dr just south of Cedarwood Circle Dr.
There is an grayish (unpainted), stand-alone curb in the corner of the village pantry parking lot and 3rd st. Between the flat grayish surface of the parking lot and the flat grayish surface of the sidewalk. I understand this is to deter cars from cutting through the parking lot but I now know THREE PEOPLE who have BROKEN BONES because of this curb. Two were pedestrians ans one was on a bike. This curb is a HAZARD and should be at the very least PAINTED YELLOW to reflect this and hopefully prevent further accidents. Thank you.
The sidewalk on Sare road from around the Spicewood 2 subdivision down to the Sherwood oaks roundabout is extremely overgrown. I almost collided with a biker on a walk because there isn’t enough room for 2 people even though it’s about a 7 foot wide sidewalk. This has been complained about multiple times and nothing has been done.
Huge bump on curb, has caused multiple trips/falls in the past week in my family alone, caused damaged toe and scratches on knees / nose
The curbs for the new bump-outs on Weatherstone need painted a bright color. It is hard for drivers to see the change in the road, especially at night, and if hit, would cause vehicle damage.
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 weeds in the medium. Not taking care of.
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.
