Vehicles speed down Sare rd (50 mph+) to Canada drive. There needs to be another stop sign before Meadow Creek apartments or a speed bump. There are autistic children in the area, pets, children riding bikes, elderly people, students, and wildlife at risk. These same people are throwing beer cans out the window and many of them are texting and driving. It’s a matter of time before there will be an accident. Thanks
I recently complained about the dangerous new roundabout at S. Sare Rd. and East Rogers Rd. I would like to once again point out how dangerous this intersection is. This morning at 8:30AM a vehicle was traveling in the wrong direction through the roundabout despite perfect weather conditions/ clear visibility. This is at a time of high traffic volume at that location. An innocent person is going to be seriously injured at this intersection due to poor engineering and a lack of proper traffic controls. I am keeping a record of these complaints in the event of an incident at this location.
At 7th and Morton, on 7th in both directions for the lanes of motor vehicle traffic, there are no painted white stop lines perpendicular to the lanes for the new stop signs. It would be helpful to have the thick white stop lines to help signal to traffic that they must stop at this intersection. This is for both east and west bound traffic lanes.
As 10th street crosses SR46 to the east, it goes from 2 lanes to 1. There is one sign indicating that the right lane ends. However the left lane curves as though it ends. Since I was nearly in an accident the other day because of this confusion, I would like to know which lane ends. I would also like additional signage added to reduce that danger. If it is the right lane that ends, perhaps that could be marked as a right-turn only lane.
This intersection, no one knows if is two lanes or one- heading East on Covenanter. There is no paint suggesting it is two lanes, but many drivers treat it as such as there is enough room for two lanes. It is very dangerous. Please add paint or signage to help drivers
Speed limit sign needed on w15th between Jackson & Maple to slow dangerous driving.
This needs to be repainted so that there is a right turn lane so that northbound on Smith turning right onto 10th does not get stuck behind vehicles trying to turn left onto 10th.
The intersection of 10th and N. Smith Road during peek traffic hours gets backed up for those coming from the south on N. Smith Road. Because of the long line of traffic, entrances to the Meadow Smith Apartments get blocked, and I'd imagine it makes things a bit more difficult for the gas station there as well. Has the city entertained the idea of making that a three way stop rather than only requiring traffic coming in from Smith Road to stop? The traffic levels seems to suggest a need for it. I could send in a photo next time I see a back up if you'd like.
Has the city considered installing a protected bike lane on 3rd street? Particularly between Jordan Ave and Indiana Ave. I just drove by and there were TWO Semi-tractor trailers parked in the lane and a sedan parked in the lane. It really reflects poorly on the city that you put in useless white paint and nothing to actually protect people from vehicles. I never bother to use the bike lanes for this reason, you never know when you'll have to keep re-entering vehicle traffic.
