314-398 West Kirkwood Avenue

Case Date:
8/9/2017

Ever since the 4-way Stop signs were added to the intersection of Kirkwood and Madison, it has become more dangerous for pedestrians to cross Kirkwood. I live at the corner of this intersection and cross several times a day on foot, taking my school to school, shopping, etc. Individual cars may stop but never both cars going in each direction on Kirkwood. We find ourselves in the middle of the intersection constantly with a car stopped going east but another zipping through going west. I understand why the extra Stop signs were added: there were car accidents on occasion. Now thanks to this well-intended addition we can't cross safely as pedestrians because people only think about where THEY'RE going, not that both east and west moving vehicle have to stop at the SAME time to allow pedestrians to cross. So either revert back to having only stop signs going North and South on Madison or add a traffic light. This intersection has become infinitely more dangerous for residents and children who don't always look BOTH ways before crossing the street. This is URGENT especially now that school has started.

Our children, with 2 adult supervisors have to take a chance by crossing the street to go from the east side of S Highland Avenue to the west side of S Highland to go and enjoy the Winslow Woods park. Please paint a crosswalk on S Highland Avenue leading from YMCA entrance to across the street to the Winslow Wood Park. Will need to erect signage for motorists to see there is a crosswalk. Children and adults could safely cross the street and not fear for their lives.

Please consider putting a speed bump on the eastbound lane of W Allen near the Hilltop Village Apartments. That is a very dangerous area.

At 1100 W. Allen street there is a hill just west of the drive. People Fly down the hill and there are always accidents coming from the traffic going East and coming from the 1100 W. Allen St. Address. A Buss Stop is also at the hills crest going west. This is proving to be extremely dangerous. Perhaps a speed bump going east would slow traffic as it come down hill

The hill after the stop sign at Adams and Allen needs a speed bump - badly. There are frequently accidents from folks driving over the hill at high speeds, and colliding with individuals trying to exit parking lots and neighborhood side streets.

1800-1820 North Kinser Pike

Case Date:
8/28/2017

In the morning from 7-9 the traffic gets extremely backed up on Kinser Pike coming from the North, the neighborhoods and the school buses from the High School. The left turn signal, to turn on to 45/46, is extremely short, less than 10 seconds I would say, and then it's extremely hard to turn left on green as there are lots of cars coming across the intersection. Is there any way to make this turn signal longer for at least those 2 hours in the morning? Traffic is sometimes backed up all the way to the Skate Park, which is on a curve so that is very dangerous. You round the blind curve and all of a sudden there is stopped traffic. Thank you for your consideration in this matter!

125-189 South Adams Street

Case Date:
11/4/2013

When traveling W. on Kirkwood and coming to the light at Adams, there are 2 left turn lanes but no good markings to guide cars to their respective lanes on Adams. We were almost hit by a car next to us that drifted into our lane as we turned. You need to put some nice wide solid white arcs to prevent an accident there.

403 S Jordan AVE

Case Date:
4/13/2014

Traffic southbound on Jordan is always held up by people waiting for the left turn to go east on Atwater. Countless times I've seen that the light has already cycled to yellow by the time northbound traffic has cleared, and as a result cars have backed up all the way to third st. If the switching equipment allows jordan southbound to get green BEFORE jordan northbound, it will improve intersection throughput tremendously.
