For the last couple of weeks there has been an orange traffic barrel with a "Sidewalk Closed" sign on it sitting in the back yard of a student rental house next to our office. I assume it is a city barrel. Our office is at 914 E. Atwater, the first building east of the Subway. The house the barrel is behind is the next house east of us (blue siding, white trim). The easiest way to get to it is through the alley: go up Atwater past the Subway and turn right into the alley just past the grass lot. Turn left into the alley that runs parallel with Atwater. The barrel is in the grass between the parking lot behind our building and the parking area behind the rental house.

Hello,
The portion of the 446 between the Gentry East entrance and the newly constructed Gentry Park Senior Living is currently marking the median as dotted line, meaning passing is allowed. This does not seem to be a good idea considering that there are quite some traffic going in and out both from Compton blvd (Gentry East property) and from Gentry drive (Gentry Estates property) to 446.
I had a near-collision incident yesterday. I was going to make a left-turn toward the Compton blvd from southbound 446. At the very moment of turning left, I happened to see my side-mirror to find a car was speeding up toward the opposite lane to pass the three cars all at once. I was fortunate to be able to make a stop to avoid the collision. Yes, that driver must be an idiot but I would like to ask the City (or State) to do something for this. As long as this portion of the road allows passing, there are potential dangers for the cars traveling this portion of the road. As the Gentry Park Senior Living is becoming open, the situation could be getting worse.
Please make this portion of the road passing not allowed both ways. Thanks.

Signal is not giving crosswalk signal to cross 10th St, thereby training students and other pedestrians to cross against the signal.

The sidewalks on the drive to the Women's Clinic have curbs rather than a curbcut. This means that a person who uses a power wheelchair can't get to the Clinic via her wheelchair.

This is regarding the left turn lane at the Victor Pike intersection for northbound SR 37. There simply NEEDS to be a separate "turn on green only" signal for that lanes. Suppose you are trying to turn left on Victor Pike (away from the Sunoco) but there are 5 cars waiting to turn the opposite direction. You can't see around those cars to tell who is coming southbound on 37.
So essentially, it's a guessing game on whether or not you're going to get T-boned by a truck going 60+ mph. I make this turn at 5:30 PM every weekday and have nearly been hit twice over the past week. Please do something about this before my family has to file a life insurance claim.
P.S. - I've already ordered a dashcam to document these weekly occurrences.

There's a huge pothole on the right side of the road if heading towards overpass. It's about 3ft wide and there is no way to avoid it unless you swerve into the other lane for on coming traffic. If you forced to drive over it you pretty much have to almost come to a slow roll.

The traffic signal on Walnut from 2nd street to 17th have lost sync, causing multiple stops along the route.
Also, the loss of the overhead streetlights between 10th and 14th street on Walnut is disappointing. The doorway lights on the construction on the east side of the street serve to blind drivers more than it illuminates the area for safety.

The alley between 423 and 425 S grant st needs some attention. There are pot holes and many bad areas. We have repaved our lots already.
