The walk signal never shows a “safe to cross” signal on the NW corner (by Bloomington Pt and Wallpaper). Also, the “safe to walk” Signal doesn’t work on the SW corner. This is very dangerous at this high speed level intersection.
New wheelchair game curb is a 2-3 inch drop. Northeast corner of intersection of W Pinehurst & S Southern Pines
The bike lane on both sides of Smith Road is in very bad shape. Staying in the bike lane is, at times, more dangerous than riding out on the road with traffic. I selected the Debris in Bike Lane, but it's not a matter of debris; rather, the road is busted up with potholes in the bike lane.
Pedestrian beacon (RRFB) on High St. at Greenbriar Ln. is flashing at random even when no one pushes the button. Seems like this is training drivers to ignore the beacon. Could you please fix this?
East side sidewalk snow and ice packed. High traffic. Also the city piled snow and left 5 foot piles blocking the paths that people use to go from the fields to the neighborhood and then bus stops. Both paths that lead from pleasant view to Clarizz treacherous and difficult. A lot of people use those to reach public transit.
Cross walk signal for pedestrians to pause vehicular traffic on south side of Rogers and 4th Street is inoperative.
There is a significant amount of gravel in the multi-use path by Performance Refinish Supplies. It's a notable hazard because: 1. It's at the bottom of the hill where people will already be going fast on a bike. 2. There's a fast S-curve at the bottom of the hill, potentially requiring turning in the gravel section 3. The gravel has almost the same color and texture as the path, making it difficult to see with time to react. 4. There's not usually this much gravel here, making the condition unexpected. It's been a rainy spring and I already know two experienced cyclists who have crashed due to unexpected gravel or mud in turns. I spotted this hazard too late slow fully myself and just tried to keep a straight line riding through it. I nearly rode off the side of the trail, but thankfully avoided losing control.
College Avenue bike lane is filled with sand, gravel, and debris. Especially the portions near and under the train overpass near 14th Street. Can the city please start maintaining the vital piece of bike infrastructure?
Can the southbound bike lane on North College Avenue be swept clean? It is especially bad underneath the railroad underpass at 14th Street, and between Cascades Avenue and 17th Street, where gravel has accumulated at driveway entrances. Thank you!
