There is not stop sign here. There should be stop signs on both sides of the street to make it safer for pedestrians crossing the hill.

There needs to be a four way stop sign at this intersection. It’s currently not safe for cars driving northbound on Hawthorne, as you can’t see very far to the left and cars come flying down 1st street at high speed (way over the speed limit) due to the lack of stop signs along this stretch of the road. This in of itself is a safety issue for the many families living along the road but also for the bikers and pedestrians trying to cross along that Hawthorne greenway bike route. Likewise, when approaching this intersection going southbound on Hawthorne it’s very hard to see to the left. You end up having to nudge the nose of your car into the intersection to even see when you ca. try to cross. I’ve personally had a couple of close calls with speeding cars on 1st. This needs to be addressed soon or there is likely to be a serious accident at this intersection!
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.
There are conflicting signs and road markings at this intersection. People are forced to dangerously merge all the time. Please fix the road markings before someone gets hurt.
There are no road stripings or signs at this intersection. It’s a mess and it’s dangerous, especially heading north on Sare through the intersection.
New traffic lanes narrow excessively northbound at East Moores Pike intersection with South Sare Road/South College Mall Road. Two lanes south of traffic light are funneled into two very narrow lanes north of the signal. Close call/near miss accidents both Monday and Wednesday morning.
You made a mess out of this intersection. The traffic lines are crooked and northbound traffic slows tremendously going through the intersection as right lane cars are going left of center into the passing lane. This was not an issue before the construction that made oversized corner sidewalks. The corner sidewalks are too large for the traffic flow and design.
At the crossing between walnut and college between the bypass an 17th (next to verve) The westbound lane has a detour sign pointing right. There is only one tiny one way sign. This will end in someone inevitably going the wrong way following the badly placed detour sign.
When 4 or more vehicles want to go north on Adams or turn west on Kirkwood traffic backs up quickly when East bound on 3rd . No room for emergency vehicles to get through when busy. Because of the new additions.
Deer cross S. Rogers St. daily in one particular location, on the north side of the 2129 S Rogers St property. An increasing number of cars fly down the road all day and lots of people use the sidewalk so its a risk not only to the deer but to motorists and pedestrians. I am requesting a deer crossing sign be installed on both sides of the road. My mom lives at 2219 S Rogers St. and we frequently see deer and their babies nearly get hit (and have been hit). If you face 2129 S Rogers, you will see the area on the far left side of the property where they cross near the trees. Thank you for considering this signage. I didn't have a photo but can provide any other helpful info if needed.
