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.

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.

The entrance to the alley between 725 S. and 701 S. Highland is a wreck with a steep step off that included a sheared off street level. And the concrete is broken up with a muddy base up to the line of the alley-city sidewalk. Also the curb from 701 S. to the alley is broken and muddy. Additionally the entrance to the same alley from Jordan Ave. is also broken, but less so.

Sorry, but this was the most appropriate place I could find. I think the street department does a terrific job. However, I have a complaint about the actions of a snowplow. I live at 344 S. Rogers st. I went out several times yesterday to keep my front sidewalk clean. Sometime after 8 pm a snowplow came by so fast that snow was thrown not only on my sidewalk but also on the retaining wall next to the sidewalk, see the picture. What is even more annoying is that the same snowplow did not do this to my next door neighbor. I hope that in the future the snowplow driver will have more understanding of the problems with going too fast and ruining a homeowners hard work. Thank you

There is a curb cut on Hunter Ave, it seems have serviced a vacated alley, right behind 502. S. Hawthorne. The house owners have fence the area, so perhaps they believe they own it, but GIS sees it as an alley. I was walking down west on Hunter after dark on Sunday evening, and the shrubbery shadows the street lights. Even though I have been a neighborhood resident for 2 decades, I forgot that I had to step down when on the sidewalk, and I stumbled a bit, caught myself, but then hit the curb on the other side, and fell on the sidewalk, thus abrading my right elbow and knee. I see no reason for the curb cut, and am requesting that it be filled in. We have numerous people out at night walking dogs, taking the night air, and I can imagine a more serious accident here, especially if one is elderly (at 67, I fell pretty fit.) I do feel stupid that I was not paying attention to a hazard I have been aware of for years, but there it is. Here are the views, I could not get the upload to work (neither did the Choose Location link, but I am on a Mac using Chrome, and if your system is Windows based, therein may be the problem https://www.dropbox.com/s/qp74i2ruo2kvewh/2015-02-08%2010.04.23.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/qp74i2ruo2kvewh/2015-02-08%2010.04.23.jpg?dl=0

On the north side of East Third between Hillsdale and the 45-46 bypass, all of the residences and most of the businesses have not cleared their sidewalks. (The only clear stretch of sidewalk is in front of Utopia KTV.) In particular, Bloomington Chiropractic, Sahara Mart, Travelodge, and Red Lobster have not cleared their sidewalks. East of the bypass, Arby's and McDonald's have not cleared their sidewalks. Could you please enforce the city's rules about clearing sidewalks after snowfall? Thanks!
