1916 E Arden DR
- Case Date:
- 9/5/2018
The problem exists at the intersection of E. Arden Dr. and S. High St. There is a 4 way stop there. People driving on High St. regularly run this stop sign, even when there is a car on Arden Dr. that has the right of way. There have been many close calls there. This is also an intersection where families and children cross High St. on their way to Southeast Park. Something needs to be done to discourage cars from running the stop sign on High St. before someone gets hurt.

Is there a reason there is NO sidewalk on Indiana Avenue on either side of the street from 15th St. going north to the IU Credit Union property? It is dangerous to walk that stretch of street without a sidewalk available.

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.

East Fourth Street on the east side of Jefferson is blocked by tree limbs. The limbs hang down across Fourth (which at that point is just a pedestrian path) and extend down almost to the surface of the path.

The bike path on the side of Arlington Ave. between 17th and North st. has some very rough sections and pot holes that hold water making navigation difficult and dangerous after a storm.

Is there a timeline estimated for when traffic calming and enhancements will be made for the bike path Morningside Greenway? I believe it was a priority area on a map the other year. Looking forward to it! (and maybe slowing cars down a bit)

1717 S Walnut ST

Are there any plans to put a ramp down from the bike lane down to street level here? This is the newish bike lane that runs behind Black Lumber, and should lead into the Switchyard Park. At the Walnut St crossing there is still a curb here, making the transition to the road difficult for bikes.

1107 N Madison ST
- Case Date:
- 6/9/2020
We don’t have any crosswalks for several blocks in either direction, and there are many families with young children who live in the immediate vicinity. We have a lot of traffic coming north off the bridge that are driving way too fast, and it’s extremely dangerous to cross the street here.
With talk of adding curbs and repairing the sidewalk at my property, 1107 N Madison, I suggest putting a crosswalk over Madison st, on the south side of 15th. (Photo above).
I regularly witness vehicles, both emergency workers and civilians, driving so fast that It is incredible dangerous to cross the street, even for an adult. A bump up crosswalk, like is being Installed on the new 17th/vernal pike, would go a long way towards slowing vehicles down and making them more aware of their surroundings.
Even without a bump out sidewalk, a marked crosswalk is absolutely needed. Please respond to talk more about it!

N Smith bike lanes skinny. Can we get protective barrier? Live close but too unsafe for neighborhood kids to bike to the school. Is sad.

651 W Skyline DR
- Case Date:

There is a walk way from Cascades Addition from near 651 Skyline Drive that goes into the Arlington Elementary School yard. I have tried but never have been able to find out who (school or city) is responsible for it. I think the school has cleared it out every year before school starts. Children from the neighborhood walk to school that way and people walk to Kroger or to the walking path and frisbee golf course at Arlington. Right now it is really overgrown and some people have come racing their bicycles and scooters out of it and almost hit us twice (they were young adults). There used to be posts on it so no one could do that or try to drive on it! Picture is From Skyline Dr. looking up (see cut off post). I think the posts need to be put back up and it definitely needs to be cleared on both sides of path from overgrowth.
