Sidwalk hazards on Henderson side of 600 E. Maxell: poison ivy growing adjacent, tall weeks on both sides of sidewalk, a pile of dirt on sidewalk never removed...now packed down but a barrier for disabled.
The small piece of extra curb at the pinned location is in the path of cars turning from 7th onto College and is not well marked, leading to cars driving over it instead of around it
A pedestrian crosswalk has been installed but the signage is nor visible to drivers at the top of the curving hill and i almost got hit crossing yesterday. There is also a tree obscuring the signage.
AT&T cut the sidewalk on the corner of Heather and Laurel. I believe the underground work has been completed but no sign of repair. Many older people and some disabled walk there. This is causing a danger.
I'm not sure if this is the proper way to report this, but there is a very dangerous crosswalk where I've almost been hit multiple times and I have seen the same thing with other pedestrians. The problem is when crossing from the NE corner of 10th and Walnut to the NW corner. The problems result from the fact that 1) the crosswalk is obscured from view for drivers on 10th coming from the East and 2) the stop line for those drivers is back from the intersection to allow for trucking turning E on 10th from Walnut. The result is that pedestrians start to cross on the walk signal but the drivers turning right from 10th have a bit of speed by the time they can even see anyone in the crosswalk and frequently can't stop in time when they come upon a walker. The only real safe way to navigate that crosswalk as a pedestrian is to just not use the actual crosswalk (eg. stay way to the left almost in the lane of traffic so you are even seen). If you try crossing there at 5pm any day of the week, you will immediately see what I'm talking about. ;) I'm not sure what the solution is but I just know it is very dangerous. At a bare minimum, I would suggest removing the bush at the NE corner to increase visibility but even then the layout of that corner is dangerous so perhaps someone can take a look and see if anything can be done? Thanks! --Rob
Overgrown, unpruned weeds make sidewalk unusable.
When will the utility pole support cables be removed from the middle of the sidewalk? Thanks.
7th street is a nightmare for drivers and bicyclists alike. The new configuration with medians and curbs came at a very high cost financially, and personal and property safety. Bicyclists must cross traffic and can't be seen; motorists have ongoing (even those who know the streets) problems navigating the extended curbs and the narrow streets. This is an ongoing problem area.
Sidewalk along eastbound 13th Street is rough and uneven between N Forrest Ave and N Walnut Grove.
Northern curb of arch haven Ave where it intersects parallel path along landmark Ave is only raised curb on this path between 3rd st/Bloomfield Ave. This raised curb is dangerous on a bike.
