There is a missing access cover in the sidewalk on W 7th between College and Morton streets just about at the NE corner of the parking garage with the "Fruit" art hanging from it. This would be a real ankle turner if you stepped in it. Thanks!
Query the status of U-report case # 202258, re the ugly orange barriers, which can only be removed after Duke has made repairs.
Broken sidewalk on the south side of E. University near Woodlawn
Every time it rains our street floods severely and then backs up onto the sidewalks and coats them in a thick layer of mud. It’s a combination of heavy storms that the storm drain on the corner of 12th and Walnut cannot keep up with and a residual problem caused by the fiberware that was installed last year. Ever since they dug up the corner of 12th and Walnut the ground is nothing but mud and has been slowly taking over the sidewalk. It is unsafe to walk on as it is incredibly slippery and is at least an inch thick.
Thank you for grinding down the curb entrances to these sidewalks. Unfortunately they are still not accessible, the north side curb is still too uneven between the street and the sidewalk. The south side curb/sidewalk is angled in a sketchy way that sends the momentum of the wheelchair straight into the main road and it's hard to correct and stay out of the road.
Pervasive issue with uneven brick/cement/asphalt at the stylized curbs on the bike path. Asphalt is uneven with the angled cement curb pieces, which are uneven with the bricks. Missing bricks at other locations. These uneven angled triangle cement parts have damaged parts of my wheelchair several times. I am making the report at the Rogers St coordinates, but the issue extends across most road crossings between North Adams all the way to Kroger. North Adams, Fairview, and Rogers are by far the worst ones, but most need addressed. If you want me to take pictures and send individual reports for every crossing on the bike path, I can do that.
Many tree roots in this area, raising the bike path like speed bumps. Noticed they are growing and are becoming quite a nuisance for wheelchair especially. They are also quite hard to see in certain lighting conditions. There is also another large raised root across from Rev Butler Park path entrance off bike path.
Turning right from 17th St onto Madison St is a nightmare. You're either going to hit the car that's in the lefthand turn lane on Madison St, or you're running over the decently large curb. The only cars that can safely navigate this are small cars. If you're a truck, SUV, or, God forbid, a city bus, you're in trouble. Cars don't turn at 90 degree angles. The radius of that curb is entirely too small.

The traffic light pole here takes up half the sidewalk, leaving very little room for pedestrians to get around. Probably impossible for someone with a mobility aid to pass (e.g. wheelchair, walker). Seems like a major ADA issue. Even as someone with fine mobility, I barely had room to get by while staying on the sidewalk.
