A "Use the Zipper" or a "Take Turns Merging" sign (with a "Start Merge Here" sign) would make the merging by the new hospital safer. People queue up on one side and get angry/aggressive when others do not want to queue so (unnecessarily) early.
At the intersection of East 10th street and N Smith Rd, N Smith R gets very backed up because traffic does not stop on East 10th. If someone wants to turn left, they have to wait for traffic coming from both ways. There is one lane on N Smith Road so traffic becomes backed up very quickly when someone needs to turn left. This happens especially in the afternoon. Traffic can become so backed up it extends past Meadow Park Apartments, nearing a hill. This can be dangerous when cars cannot see the stopped traffic until after coming over the hill.
At the Atwater & Mitchell intersection Atwater becomes two-way going east towards High Street. Before the recent resurfacing of Atwater there was a painted arrow on Atwater Street just before Mitchell to warn drivers they had to turn left onto Mitchell. I have seen drivers on multiple occasions recently continuing on Atwater after crossing Mitchell driving on the wrong side of the road. Painted arrows and signs would be helpful at this intersection. Thank you.
Bus stop for MCCSC and park at intersection, high pedestrian use intersection. Request crosswalk markings be repainted with bold "piano key" type highly visible markings.
There is a bus stop here and many residents live at this apartment. I also see workers moving around a lot in this area. There is no cross walk to get people from scholar's quad apartments (or the IU buildings across from scholar's quad) to the nearest bus stop across the street. I have seen a lot of jay walking and close calls as residents attempt to cross the road to get to the bus bus on 10th and 45/46 bypass. Please consider placing a cross walk for residents to safely cross the street.
Going north on Rogers St, at the intersection with 3rd, the right lane is not very well marked as a turn only lane, or the marking have worn away. Two cars today alone cut me off in that intersection as I was in the left lane going straight and they were in the right lane, apparently also going straight. This is an accident waiting to happen. This intersection needs better markings and/or signage to make it safer and easier to navigate.
The median on Rogers near the Community Kitchen needs reflectors. It is very hard to see it at night
I have observed two near-collisions at the intersection of South Highland and East Hillside. Drivers coming from the west on Hillside seem sometimes to be surprised to find westbound traffic, preparing to make a lefthand turn and turn south on Highland, appearing in what the eastbound drivers perceive to be "their space." The street markings are nearly invisible. I'm sure repainting is scheduled but sooner might be good . . . Thanks!
I submitted ticket 176160 on June 14th. It was "closed" with the assurance having been sent to me that the needed pavement repainting on East Hillside was scheduled for July. Alas, it's August and - as of yesterday anyway - nothing has happened. Saw another "near miss" last Saturday, July 31st. I'm hoping not to see any more. Thanks!
My license plate is missing
