This evening a crashed off my bike while making a tight turn off of Atwater onto Swain. This was caused by gravel, mud, and leaves washed down Swain to the intersection with Atwater. Fortunately, I only scraped my knee, riuned my pants, and got muddy because I was traveling fairly slowly. Several times over the past couple of years I have reported debris (dirt, sand, gravel, mud, etc.) at this intersection. Each time the street sweeper or someone would eventually clean it up. However, if anyone were to give this situation the slightest thought, it would be apparent why this is a recurring problem. Gravel and dirt wash down to this this corner from the alleys off of Swain. Failure to install curbs, retention mechanisms, and proper drains and/or paving the alley is necessary to solve this problem. Failure to do so will result in further accidents and harm.
Can we please get a barrier like cones to partition the bike lane on third? This would help bikers feel safer and actually use the lanes and cars from blocking other cars and buses and creating problems by CONSTANTLY parking in a no parking area by slowing down and pulling over. I get annoyed as a driver but would be even more mad if trying to bike or driving a bus.
Debris and broken-glass throughout the length of 7St bike lane needs to be swept up. This should happen every Sat morning after the bar-hopping.
Hello- I was actually hit by a car on washington between 3rd and Smiths St's tonight, 3/7/24 a bit after 6 pm. A Porsche SUV driven by a college-aged female drove up next to me, then attempted to turn west onto Smith directly in front of me causing me to run into the passenger side door with my elbow and bike. I had a rear blinking light on, so this person had to have seen me as she approached. I'm fine; I yelled some very not-nice things and continued on my way. I know there's nothing to be done here, but in the interest of logging yet another incident in this area, I wanted to report. thanks again. Sorry, no picture.
Scary to cross 3rd at 3rd and Smith. Can we get crosswalk repainted there at least? Thank you.
Address in report is the nearest address to the intersection - the resident complained that there is no formal crosswalk at the Moores Pike and Smith Road intersection.
Trail along South Sare from approximately Canada dr south to Jackson Creek middle school crossing is very overgrown and needs mowed. This is a yearly occurance, also please maintain through out year. Thanks
Are the crosswalks across N Walnut at Old St Rt 37 suppose to work?
A tree has fallen across the bike path along Sare Road south of the intersection with Olcott. It requires one to dismount your bike, lift the bike over the tree, and remount. This tree has been there for over a month.
