I am writing to request a 4 way stop sign at a very dangerous to pedestrians and drivers crossstreets on picture attached. Although there is a yield for one side of incoming traffic, I oftentimes find myself having to hit the breaks at a quick turn here onto incoming traffic, even if you have the right of way. I live in this neighborhood and drive under this bridge/on the curb every day, several times a day. It’s a safety issue that I’m surprised hasn’t been looked into. I’m happy to do anything else to push forward an evaluation and get some stop signs placed here. Thank you! Ruth Vaca
As the city refuses to put a light at the entrance of Blue Ride and N. Walnut you need to lower the speed limit starting at the light at Cascades. When turning left out of the neighborhood it is somewhat blind, so you can often pull out and a car comes right up on you. The speed limit on Tapp from 37 is much lower with no business or a neighborhood.
"There is one left turning lane, one lane to go straight, and one lane to turn right. The middle lane to continue straight should also have the option to turn left. Hardly anyone leaving the McDonalds, Cheddars, Pizza Hut, fire department, and the hotels are going straight. The light to leave our area is not long and I truly believe the flow will greatly improve with a dual straight and left hand turning lane."
Sign indicating turn and reflective lights desperately needed. Two cars have gone of road at this same turn in last two months. Woman was trapped for over 24 hours on over incident. Second incident took down a utility pole which is still down.
Southbound on Dunn, at 6th St: tree needs trimming, stop sign obscured
Hello, there is currently no safe way to cross 3rd street at Grant to get to the BT stop. There is no crosswalk at that intersection. I walked down to cross at Lincoln but after I crossed, the sidewalk is under construction and I had to walk on the street. Is there some kind of “temporary crosswalk” that can be installed at 3rd and grant? Traffic is crazy and dangerous right now. Thanks, -Bill
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.
"Head start" for pedestrians. Use the NYC trick, give walkers a 7 second head start before turning the light green. This intersection, the one on the bypass and 10th, and the Kirkwood Walnut crosswalk are just 3 places drivers ignore pedestrians as they only look at cars so they can make right turns. Please. They're going to run us over. Look at Saturdays NYtimes.
Sign needed, northbound - "Right lane ends, merge left"
