On Sheridan Drive between E. Karen and S. Highland, the bike/pedestrian lane on Sheridan has a lot of gravel and sand and junk in it. This is on a downhill in a bike plane and covers most of the lane. Can this get cleaned up and swept off?
There have been several obstructions in the "walking area" near the road all winter, which is already made smaller by an overgrown honeysuckle bush that pushes pedestrians into the road on Matlock just over a blind hill with limited space for two cars. The honeysuckle bush is directly in the path, and just before it are a bunch of wire planter cages also blocking the path and creating a dangerous impediment to walking. I once tried to just pick them up and move them, but they seem to be held to the ground. They have been smashed down, but are now creating a slippery surface (even without the ice now covering them). They cover a small hill leading into the honeysuckle tree, and I recently fell trying to cross them, which put me dangerously close to passing cars. While the space across the street is actually better for passing, it is generally unpassable, as it does not get mown, and is allowed to grow up tall with weeds the majority of the year. I added a photo--very difficult to see the wire cages, so I have circled them in the photo. They are also difficult to see in real life, which makes them more hazardous. I think these items belong to the house inside the fence, rather than the log cabin, just fyi.
I was struck that there are pedestrian ramps on the south side of W. 3rd St. This indicates to me, as a pedestrian, that there is an intention for me to be able to cross Patterson Blvd. Having done this on multiple occasions, I take my life in my hands: there is a right-hand turning lane on Patterson at 3rd. Many vehicles turn right onto Patterson while traveling east on 3rd, and don't anticipate a pedestrian. There is no crosswalk at this location, which will be imperative with the new retail development just west of this intersection. While I doubt that there are many pedestrians crossing here, you may as well anticipate a crossing signal, which would be a kindness.
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 parking lot light at the Clear Creek trail parking lot on That road is turning on and off (flickering) all night long
College Avenue bike lane from 17th all the way to 11th is filled with debris. Sand, gravel, etc. Really bad under the train underpass. This stretch really needs routine maintenance. Everytime I ride through here it is in bad shape, forcing me into the road.
The walk sign was NOT on to cross tenth, as pictured, though the speaker on the button said it was. To duplicate the problem you may have to wait ten or so seconds into the cycle.
Lane lines have disapeared all along E 3rd St
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
a lot of broken glass in bike path tunnel
