Please be aware that there is no bike/side path on College Mall from Moores Pike to 1116 S College Mall rd. as shown on the bike map produced(?)/provided by the city. Some of this could have been addressed with the new intersection layout at Moores Pike & Sare Rd/College Mall Rd. Yes, there still would have been a gap but minor compared to now and perhaps save future reconstruction of part of intersection.
Tree leaning into protected bike lane on the south side of adams (eastbound). Just north of cresent donut & furniture workshop. Hard to see
Have reported this before, never got an answer. I was told it was something to do with the city and guard rail study. The trail at this location is below the grade of the road on Moores Pike. I requested evaluation for a guard rail to protect walkers from a car leaving the road and rolling over the hill. This is a high speed road and it is very unnerving to walk along this trail. Send someone out and stand there to see what I mean.
There is a "cave in" on the sidepath along Monroe St. It is 45 inches in diameter and 17 inches deep. Looking through an opening you can see that it is hollow underneath. Stand alone pavement was supporting the weight of bicyclists and pedestrians before it caved in. This sidepath is on a long steep hill that Some cyclists are may descend at great speed. The "cave in" is hard to see by a cyclist approaching it. This is an extremely dangerous situation. Yellow cones should be placed around it as soon as possible.
there is broken glass (wine bottle) on the multi-use path along the north side of country club rd, just east of the parking lot entrance to Lucky's & Burger King
These crosswalk white lines need to be repainted
A woman called the OOTM to report that the construction fencing at 3rd and College on West Side is coming apart and flapping.
I think it is now more than three years since there have been proper crosswalks for pedestrians crossing Third Street at the Jordan Avenue intersection. It is more than two years since the first time I wrote to inquire about it (March 2016). I was told then that it would be done in the summer of 2016. I wrote again in early 2017, and was told it would be done in the spring of 2017. A friend of mine wrote in the summer of 2017 and was told it would be done in the fall. What the heck is going on? After the recent work at Third and Woodscrest, new crosswalks appeared immediately. For it to take years at a corner where the pedestrian traffic is much higher seems truly unconscionable.
Why are the cross walks, bike lanes, turn lanes so poorly marked. The wear and tear from use and vehicles over the past four plus years has made these almost non-visable and your department has made no effort to correct the situation. This is true across the city wiith almost 70% intersections and crosswalks needing attention/maitence of some sort.
