Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
- Case Date:
- 8/24/2017
3301 N Kinser sidewalk driveway grade misaligned. Very rough on my power chair.
3301 N Kinser sidewalk driveway grade misaligned. Very rough on my power chair.
E 2nd street at CVS/Goodwill. Damaged siderail blocking sidewalk.
Pedestrian crossing buttons on pole at E 3rd & Woodscrest light inaccessible to power chair due to soft surface (mulch) between sidewalk and pole. This is a common type problem with, for example, grass surface between walk and poles at Country Club & S Rogers, or sheer dropoff between walk and button at Kinser & 46 (yeah, "tell it to the State." -- why won't you?)
This curb is at the alleyway S of 1818 Apparel Co. on N College. It, and the next 5-6 sidewalk slabs South, represent the last obstacles to power wheelchairs using the sidewalk from Square Donuts to CVS. This trip has become increasingly important for me since my Rx's were transferred as part of the Marsh shutdown on N Kinser.
The sidewalk along the E side of N. Walnut opposite M.S. park, passing "Running Crab;" rotten R.R. tie retaining wall is falling into the sidewalk. Condition worsens N.B. all the way to the corner at the Hampton Inn.
Gravel washed across sidewalk below Hampton Inn sign on N. Walnut. Iffy power chair traction/steering and pedestrian hazard.
There is no cut out to help those in wheel chairs. This should be an accessible sidewalk.
Sidewalk E of Skyline Dr on N Kinser Pk is overgrown (photo) and one section is sunken down over storm drain running across Kinser further East of the photo. This makes safely navigating this sidewalk in my power wheel very difficult.
Sidewalk is too steep and irregular for safe power chair operation. I have to use the motorway exposing me to 40mph traffic turning off of College.
Need curb cut at alleyway and realignment of sidewalk grade. This forces me onto the College Ave traffic way.
