The stop sign at the corner of S Heritage Rd and E Morningside Dr is very faded.
Please install a traffic light at Winslow and Highland. At times, it takes forever to turn onto Winslow from Highland. Overall, it is a dangerous crossing because cars cannot see each other when cars are approaching east bound on Highland because there is a hill that blocks all view--they can't see and people turning off of Highland can't see.
Please install traffic lights at Hillside and Highland. At times, it takes forever to be able to turn westbound onto Hillside from Highland because traffic is oftentimes constant. This is a dangerous crossing, and there are many residents and YMCA traffic coming through here.
I sent the attached e-mail to the Project Managers for the 494/169 interchange project, but it occurred to me I should send it to the City as well. Many of the traffic circles part of the project (specifically those in the southwest quadrant and possibly others) have earth "hills" in the circle centers which make it difficult to see vehicles already on the circle to which one must yield when entering a circle. I suggest the mounds be leveled and only low-growing landscaping planted in the circle centers to improve sight lines.
The two blocks of S. Banta Ave that connect Tapp Road to Ralston and West Graham have no sidewalks, and many children live in the vicinity (including my own). The Broadview Learning Center's playground a few blocks away is a major draw for the neighborhood children, both in houses and in apartment buildings up and down this road. However, the lack of traffic control on Ralston and the ability to cut up Banta Avenue from Tapp Road during times of the day when the Tapp/Rockport intersection becomes congested due to commuter and other traffic (especially those using it as a means to connect to 37), means that cars race up Banta to speed around the corner and shortcut to Rockport. Since the neighborhood children have no sidewalks here, or on Graham (which is a major route to the only park that is easily accessible), it is incredibly hazardous. If the city won't oversee the creation of sidewalks on these busy "shortcut" roads, could some signs and speed bumps be put in? Particularly on Banta, which is built on a hill up one side and down the other, irresponsible car traffic makes all the parents (and neighbors) frightened for our children. Additionally, the triangular corner of Rockport and Graham and Banta has no shoulder trimmed back from the large pine trees there, which not only makes it difficult to see around, but more hazardous for the many bus patrons that get off at the Countryview Apartments, and are forced to cut through the private property on the opposite side of the street, rather than risk being hit by a motorist that can't see them around that corner.
wondering if you might consider bike lanes or a widened shoulder next time north Kinser Pike is repaved. It's a popular route to reach the Bottoms and as a driver and biker, I'd appreciate the added safety.
We need a speed bump on Allen, in between S. Patterson and Fairview. People drive very fast down the hill west of Patterson towards Fairview, right into a residential area where there are many young children and children waiting for the schoolbus
The view of oncoming traffic is obscured at this intersect by the residences. I have not been in or witnessed a collision, but I believe that safety is a concern. I believe that any misfortune might be mitigated with the posting of stop signs or the placement of convex traffic mirrors. The surrounding residences are property of Indiana University. I am a lessee of one of these properties- 824 1/2 East Cottage Grove Avenue.
Stop sign needs to be replaced
