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.
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.
There is a very uneven sidewalk just to the east of our offices (Bloom Magazine -- 414 W. 6th street). The uneven portion is in front of the Applegate Building. Several of our staff members and guests have taken bad falls there; someone fell again today really hurting themselves. Can you please check into this and report back as to when it might be fixed? If needed, we'll put your Legal Department on formal notice of this hazard. One day someone is going to crack their head open at that spot -- it really needs to be repaired as there is a fair amount of traffic on this sidewalk. Thanks.
Black Lumber called MCCSC. Someone walked through the new sidewalk in front of Black Lumber. It was still green and footprints were left in it.
north side of the 1200 block of Wylie Street. Entire sidewalk and curb needs repair or replacement.
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
