Requested 3 times now. Trip hazard on high traffic walk!
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?
TIS Bookstore at 1302 E. Third St: During and after heavy rains like this morning the sidewalks in front of our building become flooded and can't be used, making it difficult for customers to enter our store. The drainage on 3rd St. in front of our building is not sufficient or efficient. Huge puddles get splashed up against our building making it impossible for customers to use our sidewalks or enter our store.
