I filed two reports three weeks ago – 188517 and 188518. Other than email messages, nothing has been done yet. The bicycle lanes on both North College and North Walnut are still plagued by heavy debris in several spots. These are TRAFFIC HAZARDS. Why does it take so long for you to respond?? If there were impediments to MOTOR vehicles, I highly doubt that you would wait three weeks to clear the road.
At the intersection of Pete Ellis and John Hinkle, where the multi-use path crossses the road, we need a crosswalk. This is a busy T intersection, and there are pedestrians.
Missing tree grate. This is a trip hazard and not ADA compliant. Please replace tree grate or install pavers.
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!
Potholes and general surface area of brick crosswalk is in disrepair, with uneven surface area. The concrete surrounding the brick is falling apart, creating hazards for walkers, bicyclists, runners, etc. Restructuring & re-surfacing needed.
Bushes are overtaking the sidewalk on the NE corner of High street, just above the Rogers/Winslow roundabout. This makes walking or biking along the sidewalk to get to the Jackson Creek Trail somewhat dangerous, as the overgrowth pushes you out towards High Street. Cars are coming out the round about and accelerating, in this area, and sure seems real dangerous for smaller kids trying to navigate the narrow strip of sidewalk with speeding cars so close.
There is a curb cut from the Turkuaz parking lot at 3rd & Lincoln onto Lincoln. For pedestrians walking south along the sidewalk, their is poor visibility to see cars pulling out here, and likewise I suspect cars don't have a good sightline for pedestrians. I was almost hit last night as a pedestrian by a car quickly pulling out here and onto Lincoln. Can the city review this and see if it can be made a bit more safe? Is the curb cut even necessary here?
re: case #169222. Gov Holcomb signed HB 1236 into law, requiring motorists to provide 3 feet of clearance when passing cyclists. It seems as if there possibly was a violation here with the Crider and Crider truck passing too closely. It would be great if the police were aware of and can begin enforcing this law. Thanks.
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.
Allen st greenway. Eastbound at walnut, the beg button is AWOL. It was too far from the roadway to be pushed by a cyclist anyways. The two-stage crossing (beg button in the refuge island) is worth nothing to me because I can only push it if my kids (trailer) are hanging out in the southbound traffic lanes. There is literally no traffic calming for northbound traffic on walnut here, which is still largely unwilling to yield even when the lights are in operation. The stop signs at Washington and Lincoln are facing the wrong direction. It is important to make allen inconvenient to drivers, but it is also essential to make it super convenient (and safe) for cyclists. The routes through bryan park suck for cyclists. Just reiterating a bunch of notes in case excellence ever becomes an interest of the city. Thanks!
