The sidewalk by 1398 W. 8th is damaged and a tripping hazard.
The sidewalk by 1398 W. 8th is damaged and a tripping hazard.
The pedestrian overpass across SR46 at Arlington School has a very rough alignment with W Gourley Pike. Also, the sidewalk leading toward Colonial Crest and Kinser Pike is discontinuous and there is a blind curve on Gourley Pike at that point making the use of this pedestrian route quite hazardous for me in my power wheelchair.
The footpath on the NW corner of College Ave & Old 37 has an extremely steep section approaching the curb cuts designating the College Ave. pedestrian crosswalk. It is quite unusable for power wheelchairs. Moreover, the lack of a side path along Old SR 37 means coming from Gourley Pike, I must approach the intersection with my chair in the motorway running against oncoming traffic. Of necessity, I must operate in the center of the lane keeping away from the soft shoulder. This is potentially quite hazardous for me given the 40+ mph cross- & turning-traffic and the concrete trucks that frequent this intersection.
Q: The south, east and west median strips adjacent to the Renwick/Moores Pike roundabout are well-maintained. However, the north median (by Ridgemede Hills) is neither planted nor weeded. How can this be remedied?
Property owner should not be allowed to continue renting property until the sidewalk has been repaired to allow pedestrian traffic to pass by safely.
There was talk of redoing this curb at some point, but I never heard more. I own the property where it would be expanded (1100 S. Rogers St.). People drive over it on a regular basis. Is there still a plan to fix it? Thanks!
sinkhole developing over street train, also sidewalk material deteriorating, coming apart in several places
Growth of trees next to sidewalk has created numerous breaks in sidewalk alignment rendering it unsuitable from Kinser to Arlington School. I trimmed growth near Kinser end blocks sidewalk.

Curb in front of fire hydrant needs to be repainted. Fire Hydrant at 720 W 7th at Maple is being blocked by parked car. Curb is yellow but hard to see. Needs to be repainted. Health and safety hazard with hydrant blocked. See photo.
