Upended sidewalk on 2nd street, especially on south side of 2nd at corner of Ballantine, but also further west on 2nd. As elderly people, we find this absolutely treacherous! Sorry we can't send a photo; we have "dumb" phones. Thank you!
Crumbling sidewalk with loose gravel on left side of Autumn Drive between house number 2208 and 2218. Hazardous.. I have tripped and fallen twice as I walk my dogs. Second time I have reported this problem. I'm 74 and don't want to break a hip!!
The sidewalk on 9th between Grant and Lincoln St. is crumbling and falling apart.
Missing segment between Gourley and existing sidewalk that goes to College Ave. Today I have to take my chair into the he motorway with monster concrete truck traffic.
The sidewalk on the north & east sides of the 4th Street parking garage is in terrible shape.
I live at 1009 S. Lincoln St., and running in a perpendicular line to the street from our water access, at the house edge of the sidewalk, there's a big hole. It seems to go below the sidewalk a little. I'm not sure if I should just fill it in, or if it is indicative of a larger problem that should be addressed. I'd love a little guidance from the experts! Thanks!
I have been a resident of the Eastern Heights neighborhood since 1978. Even before I moved into the neighborhood I remember seeing signs along St. Rd. 45 pleading for sidewalks to be constructed there. Our children have to ride the bus to school (even though University School is literally right across the street from our neighborhood) because of the lack of sidewalks and safe crossing of St. Rd. 45. I know that our area is governed by the Seymour district of INDOT and that they believe the area does not have enough traffic to warrant a sidewalk. I also know that the traffic count was completed several years ago in December during I.U.'s winter break and half of the town was gone. I suspect if they conducted another count during a time with typical traffic, they would find a completely different result. We have waited long enough for sidewalks. Now is the time, please! Thanks for your help in getting this accomplished.
Sidewalk request for 10th street to make a path to University school I am a resident of Eastern Heights neighborhood and our community has been in desperate need for sidewalks along 10th Street from E. Etter Drive through to Grandview neighborhood. We also need crosswalks to University Elementary School. We understand the complications with it being a State road, but a meeting is needed to begin the formal process of gaining walking access in this area. Not only will it allow our children to walk to school, but it will provide community members in Tamarron and Eastern Heights the ability to safely walk to the bus stop and access the University and downtown without the use of cars. Also it is essential that there be a cross walk so that children can safely cross 10th street to get to University Elementary school. Thanks for your attention to this important matter.
Metal piece bent at dangerous angle sticking out of sidewalk on east side of Woodlawn a little way north of 2nd.
On January 13th of this year I sustained a fall on the sidewalk on N Washington St. between 6th and 5th street. My shoulder was hurt when I broke the fall and is still sore as of 4/18/16. The fall was caused by ice on the drain cover crossing the sidewalk. The covers on that block are smooth aluminum with no grids for traction. It was covered by clear ice so I couldn't see it. A postal carrier was close behind me and he helped me to my feet. He said those drain covers were a hazard to him as well. I have waited thinking my right shoulder would improve but it has not. What is the city's policy for this kind of injury? I'd prefer not to have to pursue civil litigation to correct this.
