Sidewalk obstructed by vegetation
Sidewalk obstructed by vegetation
Restaurants on the north side of the 100 block of E Kirkwood are completely taking up the ENTIRE STREET. Pedestrians can still use the sidewalk, but what are bicycles supposed to do? Restaurant outdoor dining tables are curb to curb (and out of 35+ tables on a Sunday afternoon, exactly 1 table had customers.) It would be a lot better for private businesses to set up to SHARE the public street rather than make it impossible for bicycles to get through without taking a detour or dismounting.
Large branch on sidewalk/path
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!
On March 10, I wondered where the pedestrians are supposed to pass on the sidewalk adjacent to the entry walk to the Salvation Army store on Rogers.
Sidewalk I front of 415 N Rogers is crumbling and causes a hazard to walking pedestrians
Sidewalk/path ends. I have to cross the street twice to avoid it. Please develop the path more soon...
low hanging tree branches and bushes blocking sidewalk. one branch looks dangerous.
Sidewalk unusable, has been for years depending on season. Either it's mud covered areas or vegetation that blocks the ability to use. One more option exists and its when both happen at once. However, thank you for mowing, makes that corner usable.
The mini sidewalk that runs parallel to the road has vegetation that constrains its use. Is it possible to have someone run a mower or a weed eater next to the sidewalk to remove the vegetation that falls onto the walkway. Thank you as always.
