I would like to know how to go about requesting speed bumps be placed on park ridge rd/bill mallory blvd.. along with local traffic we seem to have a lot of people cutting through from 3rd st and 446.
We patrol Crestmont area often and find many kids out playing on the side walks and street. There is also a lot of speeding traffic through there. We are requesting signs be put up, especially around the area that the new park is being built. Signs saying to slow down, children at play. We would like signs in several places in Crestmont, as there are many kids everywhere, if possible.
The intersection of Winslow Rd and Walnut Street Pike need the Right Turn Only sign replaced. After spending a bunch of money redoing that intersection to prevent people going straight or turning left, the Right Turn Only sign was torn down soon after it was put up. The bent up sign was propped up on some wood for a few weeks and now it's laying down too. Almost every time I drive past there I see a car going straight or turning left.
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.
Could we have increased signage at Atwater and Fess indicating that cross traffic does not stop? This additional sign could be affixed to each of the current stop signs. This location is particularly prone to near-misses as the parking garage invites visitors into town who don't necessarily realize that Atwater is a major East artery for the town.
Car and truck drivers regularly speed down 12th Street between Walnut and Indiana, and do so at all hours. Now, in addition to that they have been racing up Lincoln Street between 10th and 12th, likely to avoid the traffic lights at 10th/Walnut and the new one at 11th/Walnut. Fully half of the speeding vehicles have "Dominoes" pizza signs on the roof. Why did the City allow a junkfood delivery service to be situated where they could race through a residential neighborhood? Is there a way to prevent the delivery drivers from using 12th Street and Lincoln unless they have actual deliveries in the neighborhood? Or at least slow them down a bit. It seems like a Stop sign at 11th/Lincoln would help on that street, and two Stop signs on 12th (at Lincoln and either Washington or Grant) would make it safer. PLEASE do something about this. It can only get worse if/when "The Standard" is ever done and occupied. It will be a nightmare unless the City is proactive and puts up Stop signs where they are warranted. (And the arguement that "No one stops at Stop signs" used by the traffic board in the past is specious. If true, why then are there any stop signs put up anywhere?
Please remove the One Way sign that is on the North side of third street near S Mitchell. There is one on the left which clearly lets you know the traffic coming from the left is one way towards you, however this one make it look like you can turn right into the parking lot on the north side which has so not enter signs. It is unnecessary and confusing.
Is there a reason for not having crosswalks or crossing lights in this intersection (Eagleson ave x Law ln)? There is a lot of foot traffic here and it seems weird that there is not any safety infrastructure for pedestrians.
Street light to cross Moore’s Pike at Clarizz is missing. But many drivers ignored the yellow flashing light and accelerated through the light. I think a regular stop light would be more effective.
We live in Meadowood a retirement community off 45/46. We have two entrances, one on Dunn and other Milo Sampson. Both areas have issues with people running stop signs.. a lot!! Coming in from Dunn street.. there is a 3 way stop at Dunn and Tamarack Trail. The traffic on Dunn is supposed to stop .. most of the time it’s a slow and go situation and other times it’s a don’t even slow down situation. This happens a lot. When we are leaving Meadowood and stopped at 3 way we are shocked at the number of vehicles that don’t stop. It’s a very dangerous situation for people on tamarack The Milo Sampson entrance to Meadowood also has a 3 way stop. The main problem is traffic coming off 45/46 down the hill.. they mostly don’t stop at all and continue on into the IU facility. And same goes for when vehicles leave the IU facility. It’s especially bad in the mornings when staff arrive for work at IU. We are an older crowd and enjoy walking in Meadowood area and the vehicles just don’t obey the stop signs Can something be done?? Flashing lights on stop signs?? Thank you. I’ve also contacted the city about the trash along Milo Sampson but told IU maintenance does that.. and have contacted them numerous times but no action Karen Johnston
