Snow plowed directly onto intersection of hillside & b line
North of 4th on B-line, the east ballard is directly in the path of a typical northbound cyclist. It is about 3 feet too far west. Every other ballard on the B-line is to the side of the decorative arrow, but this one is directly in the path suggested by the arrow. It is hard to see at night and is surprising every time it is encountered at night. I have witnessed one cyclist collide with it and many close calls.
Major minefield of broken glass in the bike ped underpass at the bypass
bridge over train tracks where rogers turns into madison (about 800ft north of 11th&rogers). NB bike lane (on east side of rogers) merge zone was inadvertently removed with new paint. originally, there was a merge zone (dashed white line) where the bike lane ends. when the bridge was resurfaced last year, they got the merge zone correct but added an extraneous solid white line north of the merge zone. when they repainted, they simply made the whole thing a solid white line. the current spot where the bike lane appears to end is a dangerous spot to merge. even with the striped line in the right place, this was an uncomfortable merge. it needs to be improved, not harmed. thanks!
There are barricades protecting the bike lane just north of 11th on college, presumably to stop drivers from using it as a right turn lane during construction?? Nice thought but the crane significantly overhangs the barricade. Nvm that the bus stop is hindered.
NE corner of 17th&dunn. My kids are into riddle humor so maybe you'll enjoy this one: Q. What kind of licensed engineer puts a shared path to the right of a dedicated right turn lane where drivers don't even stop for a red light? A. The kind that ignores the MUTCD. Hahahahaha that's even funnier than the time my 4yo gave a long set up forthe punchline "buttcrack". But in all seriousness, the SE corner doesn't have a sidewalk connection for east/west peds and there are no painted crosswalks either. The MUTCD, bro, bible or nah?
When the car light is green for 10th Street and the pedestrian signal to cross tenth street is a solid hand, the talking box on the beg button says the walk sign is on. I stood there a few signals and the box starts saying the walk sign is on when the green light is on for both directions. It's about 4:22, and I took a video if you'd like to see. This the corner of 10th and Fee.
I just submitted the thing about the talking box at 10th and Fee. I told you I have a video, but I didn't give you my contact info. I entered in into the app and it should be connected to this report.
Cars parked in bike lane on west side of college just south of the railroad bridge (approx 12th st). Also, deep snow in same bike lane at intersection w 14th st
