The road closed barricade on Rockport (traveling southwest) and Rogers is too much in the road that buses and other large vehicles are having difficulty turning the corner from southbound Rogers onto Rockport when cars are at the intersection (on Rockport) waiting for the light. It is assumed that vehicles need to be up at the intersection in order to trip the light for Rockport travelers.
Despite the closure, the road is heavily traveled due to the various neighborhoods and Summit Elementary (summer school?). Being a resident of the Adams Hill neighborhood, I travel through this intersection daily. If the barricade can be moved off the road more, that would be an easy fix. However I like that it makes it obvious to travelers that the road is closed, as I do not want even more traffic through our neighborhood than we already have.
My suggestion is to alter the light-trip indicators. If the cars traveling northeast on Rockport can be further back to trip the light, it would allow cars to weave through the barricades in single file when it is their turn. This also means there should be a "No Turn on Red" for southbound Rogers.
A solution would also need to allow for those in the neighborhood across Rogers to come through the light onto southbound Rockport. The traffic from that direction is minimal. My thought for those traveling from that direction would be to have their side trip individually and the lights would need to be green one direction at a time.
If the closure was only for a month or two, it would not be much of an issue. However with the closure going until near the end of the year and school starting in August, this intersection will need addressed as the traffic (buses and parents) to and from Summit Elementary is quite measurable.
Thanks for your consideration.

The closed road sign is at the very end of the road for the north bound lane of rockport upon exiting Fullerton pike. I understand informing that the road is closed about 1 mile ahead, but its blocking safe access to the lane for anyone traveling to their homes in bachelor heights. I feel that it is unsafe and obstructing traffic.

A residential Parking Sign is improperly inserted into the ground causing it to be slanted at a 30 degree angle. This is almost blocking my driveway and causing the roof of my car to scratch it. Can you please re-dig this sign in the ground so that it's' straight? The sign itself is not damaged, it's just not properly inserted into the ground.
Thanks.

This house has recently been rented. There is now a person that we believe has been living in their red truck outside the home. Now there is a small RV parked on the Larkspur Lane side of the street beside the same house with an extension cord coming from the house to the RV, which is directly in front of the red truck. This makes seeing around the RV and truck for other vehicles very difficult.

This home is a rental property. Whoever is renting it currently has their very large work truck parked on the street every day, which is very near the stop sign at Larkspur and Woodhill. The truck has leaked what looks like oil all over the street in front of the home. The truck makes viewing around it for oncoming traffic very difficult.

Kirkwood Ave should be blocked off heading east from Dunn Street. If cars travel east past Dunn, there is no place to go and they are having to turn around in the Kirkwood/Indiana intersection. Indiana is closed heading north at that intersection and one way heading south. Going straight takes you thr the Sample Gates. I've been watching this happen for several days from my office in Carmichael Center.

The road is almost completely inaccessible in front of the big apartment building here because cars are lining both sides of the street, even though there is only parking on one side of the street. Probably move in day in the building or something, but no excuse for lax parking rules. There was also a huge brown RV parked idling on the sidewalk, spewing fumes everywhere - and since someone kept the front door open, I'd imagine the whole building reeks of fumes, the entire street outside certainly does. I had to turn in the alleyway here to get around this street because I couldn't fit my car through the double parked cars. [Note: this was approx 20 mins ago, but I'd imagine the cars at least are still there.]
Thanks for quick response,

Blocked street from drop off and pickup of students. Cars are partially parking in 2nd St during drop off and pick up for school. Multiple people have complained multiple times over the past few years and nothing changes. The police department won’t address it because they say the school manages the drop off and pick up. However, they are blocking a city street twice daily. The school hasn’t responded. It is the city’s responsibility to ensure the streets are safe for driving. They’re even parking front of “No parking” signs. Please have the police address the city street being blocked repeatedly.
