Overgrown vegetation blocking sidewalk on HENDERSON ST. SIDE of house
Hedge growing in front of house at the SE corner of Henderson and University can block driver heading west on University from seeing car (bicycle?) heading north on Henderson. I was heading north; had to slam on brakes. I thought the other driver had failed to stop, but when i came back later, i found that their line of sight might have been blocked. Thanks!
400 Block S Jordan has heavy pedestrian traffic and many houses that have not cleared snow at all from sidewalk (403, 405, 409 S Jordan).
403, 405, 409 S Jordan - again, no snow clearance on the sidewalks of these rental homes. Other rental agencies in the block do a good job of clearing snow. This section of the block is heavily travelled by pedestrians and needs to be cleared. It stands out from the rest of the block that is cleared and is dangerous.
Jordan Square strip mall does not clear the sidewalk by the intersection of 3d and Jordan. Dangerous to walk through the crosswalks.
Hello, The stop lights at the intersections of Jordan and Atwater, and the intersection at 3rd and Jordan, are not synced. As a result, people driving to and from campus get hit by both stop lights. They used to be synced up with one another so drivers would make both lights if they were traveling east or if they were traveling west. Now, no matter what, you'll have to stop at one of them. Also, the green turn arrow light always comes on at the intersection of Jordan and 3rd, even if there is no traffic. This creates weird delays for people trying to leave campus. I know these complaints of mine are trivial, I'm not sure how much it would take to re-sync the stop lights. But I've worked on campus for years and it was perfect - now this happens and hundreds of people have to stop for 2 separate stop lights 4 or 5 times a day when it used to be zero stops.
Traffic southbound on Jordan is always held up by people waiting for the left turn to go east on Atwater. Countless times I've seen that the light has already cycled to yellow by the time northbound traffic has cleared, and as a result cars have backed up all the way to third st. If the switching equipment allows jordan southbound to get green BEFORE jordan northbound, it will improve intersection throughput tremendously.
