Curb has disintegrated over the years. As people turn from Jackson st onto Smith Ave they are driving onto my property due to there being a lack of boundary between the road and my back yard. My property is 606 W. Howe Street and the issue is the the backyard where it boarders Smith Ave. My husband and I would really appreciate it if this curb could be rebuilt to prevent further damage. Thank you!
Need new curb cut N.W. corner of Kinser & Gourley to match recent curb cut on N E. corner
The footpath on the NW corner of College Ave & Old 37 has an extremely steep section approaching the curb cuts designating the College Ave. pedestrian crosswalk. It is quite unusable for power wheelchairs. Moreover, the lack of a side path along Old SR 37 means coming from Gourley Pike, I must approach the intersection with my chair in the motorway running against oncoming traffic. Of necessity, I must operate in the center of the lane keeping away from the soft shoulder. This is potentially quite hazardous for me given the 40+ mph cross- & turning-traffic and the concrete trucks that frequent this intersection.
The pedestrian overpass across SR46 at Arlington School has a very rough alignment with W Gourley Pike. Also, the sidewalk leading toward Colonial Crest and Kinser Pike is discontinuous and there is a blind curve on Gourley Pike at that point making the use of this pedestrian route quite hazardous for me in my power wheelchair.

The property owner just south of me added a driveway ramp in September 2013 that completely prevents water runoff on the east side of N. Park Ridge Rd. (My property is #300). Water stands for weeks without draining. It is a traffic hazard - especially now when it completely freezes over. (I spoke with members of the street dept. who were out trying to clear the area during the last storm on Jan. 5/6. They told me they would report it to the dept.). It will be an even more severe health hazard in the spring/summer during mosquito breeding season. I understand the need for the ramp. However, could you persuade this resident to at least partially remove some of the ramp to allow water to effectively drain once again - please? I made a report on this issue in September 2013. According to this program the case was/is closed. However no action was taken and the situation persists.
