"Rough road" construction sign remains weeks after project complete. SW corner Fess/11th.
"Rough road" construction sign remains weeks after project complete. SW corner Fess/11th.
The corner of 15th and Woodburn desperately needs a four way stop. We hear numerous near collisions daily. It is impossible to see oncoming traffic as they speed down 15th street while sitting at the stop sign on Woodburn Ave going north. Heading south, there is a better visual of incoming traffic. If not a stop sign, please look into how close to the intersection cars are allowed to park as it completely obstructs the ability to observe oncoming traffic.
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.
This intersection is so busy during the school year with students crossing the street to get to either bus stop or from getting off the bus stop. It’s super dangerous too because the street is so busy and the cars tend to speed down this road. They also never stop for pedestrians that are waiting to cross the road so I frequently see people running across the street to make it to the other side while there is a small break in traffic. If there was a flashing walk sign for pedestrians that forced cars to pay attention and stop for pedestrians, this area would be so much safer.
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.
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!
Temporary traffic sign on lawn for several days
There has been a "road construction ahead" sign and this yard for probably 6 months or so and this is the yard of an older guy who likes to maintain his lawn and I think it bums him out to have this sing in his yard for so long with no actual road construction taking place. He keeps moving it to mow around it and then dragging it back and I feel bad for him.
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's an orange sign on Rogers Street that says "road closed on or after 8/20" and the road has yet to be closed. This is confusing as a near-daily user of the road and I am hoping this is removed or updated with the correct date of closure, if possible. Thank you.
