1 set of crosswalk lights are out, and neither crossings of third street are activated by pushing the button.
I had a horrible near-miss this morning as I was biking near the freeway. A grain truck (the kind with three sections) headed East passed me on the left with less than a foot clearance and then cut me off getting into the southbound on-ramp. The two vehicles following did the exact same thing. The other day someone in a car chewed me out for taking the lane and "Didn't I care about all this traffic?!" This intersection is on my way to work and it just needs to be fixed. It is the worst part of my commute and is so dangerous from negligent, unobservant, and angry drivers. The area from Liberty to Wynnedale is awful. There are sections of bike lanes which end abruptly, forcing people on a bike to either take the lane (if they have the confidence to do so) or share the lane with far less than three feet. The wide sidewalks are not good because drivers turning onto the on-ramps aren't looking for pedestrians or bicyclists on the sidewalk and there are lots of driveways to cross. If a bicyclist has the right to be on the street then there needs to be accommodations, signs, or better infrastructure to make it a non-lethal option.
The pedestrian crossing sign is missing from the B-Line and 4th St. intersection.
Debris and pot holes in bike lane
I'm just checking if UReport sends a notification.
When heading east on Covenanter, the signal at College Mall does not recognize bikes. If a cyclist is attempting to cross and there are no cars ahead or behind them, they have to wait through multiple signals until a car comes to activate the sensor. Covenanter is part of a marked bikeway for the city, which makes this situation all the more frustrating.
Overgrown trees on the polly grimshaw trail before you turn to go under the bbypass make it difficult to make the turn without heading into traffic going in the opposite direction.
People path east of the IN 46 underpass trail and north of 7th St. is low hanging and impinging the path.
Please replace the lights in the bike tunnel that goes under Bypass 46 and 7th street. I've received a report of someone being assaulting while they were on their bike.
