Blocked Street

1015 E Atwater AVE

Case Date:
5/14/2015

The Emeriti House at 1015 E. Atwater serves the retired faculty at IU. Currently the entrance to the alley behind the house is blocked off at Hawthorne for some minor resurfacing. Tomorrow, Fri 5/15, Faculty Ave will be resurfaced, so the entire access to the alley will be blocked off. I have two retired professors coming by tomorrow, one to pick up a very LARGE piece of art to transport to the Convention Center for a presentation. Emeriti House also has its art exhibit going on this month, as we do every year. Is this alley going to be open from the Hawthorne side by tomorrow morning? My professor must have access to the alley and our ramp for this piece of art. I would appreciate a quick reply so I can contact him about this. Also, in future, if the alley is being worked on or blocked, could someone please call me, as it impedes the traffic and our clientele, as most are retired and some use canes, etc. Thank you! Nat

Potholes, Other Street Repair

339 S Dunn ST

A very large pothole, probably at least 14 inches across and maybe almost a foot deep. Difficult to avoid due to congestion in that area. On east side of the road.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

910 S Highland AVE

Case Date:
11/20/2014

(Not really "street repair" but I couldn't find the right category): The eastbound Stop sign on Maxwell @ Highland, in Elm Heights, is OFTEN ignored. I have seen cars race right through it without even the pretense of slowing down. On foot, I have jumped out behind the car as it sped on, waving my hands and shouting "STOP SIGN!!", and once a driver waved an acknowledgment. Another time, driving north on Highland, I turned and followed the offender, honking and blinking my lights hoping s/he would notice that someone had noticed and be alert next time. The Stop sign is quite visible, not obscured by overhanging trees, so I am stumped. But I wonder if it could be moved closer to the road, enlarged, painted (the post too) a more neon/catchy red, and/or moved to the CENTER of the intersection (tricky for the snowplows, I know), and/or a "Stop-sign alert" sign added well before, or maybe it could be removed altogether with appropriate alerts posted for the north/south drivers, which might be safer than assuming people will stop. This is a potentially lethal situation for drivers, bikers, and walkers in a very pedestrian-heavy neighborhood. Thanks.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

408 E Smith AVE

Case Date:
11/12/2014

407 S Grant St.: there is a serious and dangerous condition along Grant St. between Smith and 2nd streets. You crews have left 3ft trenches along a poured sidewalk. I've personally seen 3 cars fall into these trenches and receive damage. Your signage is insufficient. Please remedy this situation now or residents being hampered by this nuisance will be forced to take legal action against the city. This report will serve as notice that you are aware of the hazard you have created by failing to fix the road in a timely manner.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

1400 E Atwater AVE

Case Date:
10/20/2014

There are many potholes in the alleyways that lead to our parking area. Many people use these alleys to get to their houses and the garbage trucks go on them weekly. Many of us have gotten flat tires due to them and the AAA people have said that other people that use these alleyways have called about flat tires from the potholes. There are quite a few potholes. These will become very dangerous during winter seeing that two of them are at the end of the alleyway leading onto Hunter Ave and Atwater Ave. If they could be fixed ASAP that would be great!

Stop sign on 2nd St. at Highland is hidden by overhanging branch. I have seen multiple cars run the stop sign presumably because they can't see it.
