Requesting a traffic counter for Dunston & Allendale Dr in Sherwood Oaks.
The westbound stop sign at the intersection of s. Highland and e. 2nd street is obscured by vegetation, either on the property of 1307 e. 2nd or 527 s. Highland. I am routinely at this intersection and regularly see westbound cars slamming on their breaks, or running the intersection altogether. The plants and trees need to be cleared so the stop sign is visible at a safe distance. This is an accident just waiting to happen.
The bike route sign south of the Southdowns intersection on Highland (east side of the road) is totally obscured by vegetation.
The trees completely cover the multiple ONE WAY signs on this road and people cannot see them. People almost get into accidents daily on this road because it’s a one way, but hotel guests do not know/see/read the one-way signs, so they go the wrong way. The street is just big enough to allow a car to pass, but not always. Something needs to be done - clean up trees, bigger “WRONG WAY” signs, or both.
There are signs at this intersection for vehicles turning right onto Kirkwood that say "YIELD" but I think that it would be helpful if the signs were more explicit. I am confused by them because in general left-turning traffic must yield to right-turning traffic but there is also a crosswalk at that point, which makes me wonder if the yield is for pedestrians who are crossing or left-turning traffic. In addition, the bike lane has two exits near there; I think that one of the exits is for bicyclists who want to continue on Adams and the other (at the crosswalk) is for bicyclists who want to turn right. Is the yield sign to tell vehicles to yield to bicyclists entering the roadway and turning right, for pedestrians crossing, or for traffic? Explicit signs would be helpful for all parties at this intersection.
Overarching bushes on Highland St. side obscure parking sign and (along with overspreading ground cover) may interfere with street sweeping, leaf collection, or snowplowing.
Someone is putting up a no parking sign that is not a city sign on Basswood Drive
A dead end sign would be nice
