E 3rd St and E Morningside Dr or E 3rd Street: A crosswalk is needed at this location, as students must jaywalk to take a bus(E Hagan Street), creating a hazardous situation. Could you please consider installing a crosswalk here?

North Dunn between Cottage Grove and 12th Street has no sidewalk at all on the west side of the street and several places on the east side that also do not have a sidewalk. This forces people to walk in the middle of the street. Lately, there have been times in the evening when there are *many* people walking (stumbling) down the street, all probably en route to/from "The Standard". These are people who cross the railroad tracks through the vandalize security fence there. If the City is not going to prevent people from crossing the railroad in the dark and over rocks and difficult terrain by putting up some sort of impermeable wall at 13th/Dunn, at least they could provide a functional sidewalk for intoxicated students to walk on. To make things worse, the street lamp at 11th/Dunn is burned out so on top of having to walk in the middle of the street it is also almost pitch black there. And this is all complicated by the fact that so many people at night drive the wrong way down Dunn and 11th Street, both of which are one-way streets.

Students going to TNMS often try to cross here instead of walking to the roundabout where the crosswalks are. Can a crosswalk be placed here?What about the school zone signs with flashing lights that positioned by other schools? Tri-North's school zone signs are still located on 11th street/Blair Ave where the old building was.

The entire brand new bike path has been barricaded from Kinser to Arlington. It looks like all that is going on is a single truck with a trailer parker on the path near the skate rink. Seems like a bit of overkill to close the whole path down for residents!

There are some new safety concerns since the "Relato" building opened next to the multi-use path between Pete Ellis and the bypass on 7th Street.
First, there's a conflict point where the garage exits to 7th street. Cars are already pulling quickly across the path towards the street, while bike traffic doesn't necessarily slow for the blind corner of the garage exit either.
I've included a photo of a location where this is handled better. This is from the new development on the old K-Mart lot which also has a garage that immediately crosses a bike path. At that location, green boxes with white chevrons appear where the bike and car traffic cross, indicating to both parties that it's a conflict point.
------
The second safety concern is where the multi-use path takes right-angle turn around the corner of the Relato. This used to be an empty field with great sight lines and now those sight lines are blocked.
At this corner I have already seen what could have been a couple near collisions due to the shortened sight lines.
A treatment that could help here would be what was done at the right angle turn going into the bypass underpass tunnel-- Add a solid center line going around the corner to indicate that parties in both directions should stay in their lane going around the corner. I feel that treatment has made the underpass corner safer and I think it would help signal safer behavior here, too.
Thanks!

At 7:26 am on 11/31/2023, a motorist in a dark BMW nearly ran me over as I was crossing the street. The vehicle was traveling about 50 MPH based on my calculation (speed=distance/time.) This is not the first near miss that I have had crossing the street or backing out of my driveway. I have sent in requests for a speed hump as motorist travel north and south between 3rd and 5th much faster than 25 MPH. I have not heard back from anyone. Please let me know that you have at least seen this uReport ticket.
I tried to submit this report in the "Close Call" section more than once and it does not work.

Kinser Pike road and sidewalks have been destroyed for a long time now after the construction at 17th and Kinser. These should have been repaired right after the gas line construction. Do bad this isn't the Eastside or IU as you all would've had it repaired the next day
