The Winslow/S. Walnut intersection is such a mess, especially when you're heading west. There is only 1 westbound lane & traffic gets so backed up if someone is trying to turn left to head south on Walnut. Since the straight & left turn lanes are the same now, can the lights be changed? It would be good if only 1 direction goes at a time. Westbound has green light for turning & straight traffic, while eastbound has a red light. Then it reverses. I used to take that route every day coming home from work. Now I go an entirely different way because it's really out of control. People sit there for several rounds of green lights when the person in front is trying to turn left. Please consider this as a solution?

My child just started school at Arlington Heights Elementary. After I pick him up I have to turn left onto highway 46, which is nearly impossible and feels very dangerous. That intersection needs a light or the elementary school needs to connect the back parking lot with the front so parents can safely exit the school. Thank you.

The brush on the west side of Rockport Rd just south of Pinehurst Dr. needs trimmed back. It is difficult to see oncoming traffic when turning left onto Rockport from Pinehurst.

Topic: West 16th, Hancock Dr., and West 15th section through/beside Crestmont Park.
This is a beautiful, and I believe under-appreciated stretch of street. Quiet, park setting with trees. However, there is one problem - the road is extremely narrow. Too narrow. If a car is coming one way and encounters a car coming the other way, one has to stop and pull half-way off the road for the other to get by. This is particularly problematic because the blacktop drops off several inches right at the edge and the soil at the edge is often washed out in certain areas. Another issue is that some drivers drive entirely too fast through here and then cut the corner at the bottom of the hill too tightly - this has practically run me off the road in the past.
I don't wish to suggest that this section of street be widened. That would ruin its park-like atmosphere. What I would like to suggest is this: Starting at Lindbergh, W. 15th, Hancock, and W. 16th up to Monroe St be made one-way westbound. Then, the section of Lindbergh between W. 15th and W. 17th be switched to one-way northbound once 17th is reopened. I don't think that much traffic normally comes up Lindbergh where it would create that much more traffic on W.16th, etc. Perhaps put down counters to check, but it would cut out the traffic from one way and make the road more safe.
Even if none of this is pursued, one thing that is definitely needed are "SLOW" signs and "PARK" signs. There may be a sign marking that there is a ninety-degree curve does in the bottom, but if not, there needs to be one of those too.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope you will give this some consideration - at least definitely the part about the signs.

Cars travel too fast on Grimes between Woodlawn and Henderson. Speed bumps could help slow the speed of traffic.
