Overgrown plants make sidewalk impassable
Overgrown weeds blocking sidewalk. Note that previous complaint was only partially addressed by owner: tall grass was cut back but large wood-stemmed weeds further down sidewalk haven't been touched.
The fiber optics crew drilling lines damaged (crushed/cracked/dislodged) almost 40 feet of sideway from the corner of Second Street and Park Avenue. Who pays for this destruction?
There is a Detour sign across from Griffin Realty pointing north on College Ave. College Ave is one-way street going south. I have kept a spreadsheet of cars going the wrong way for several years. The number has increased tremendously during the month of August 2024. January - July 2024 I witnessed 18 vehicles driving the wrong way. In August there have been 25 vehicles driving the wrong way. I'm only at the office Monday-Friday from about 11:00 am to about 5:00 pm - so there are probably many more. It seems to me that something should be done about this. Thanks, Rachel LaGrange
Map is screwing up. It's 719 E. University. And also 528 S. Woodlawn, while we're at it.
The intersection at Woodlawn and 11th street poses significant potential danger to drivers, walkers, and bicyclists. I walk past this intersection every day and have seen several near-accidents. I propose a 3-way stop at this intersection. Vehicle traffic going North and South is always traveling quickly and don’t always see walkers crossing Woodlawn. In some cases, I have witnessed drivers stopping to allow walkers to cross. But, this causes drivers going one-way on Woodlawn to attempt to cross. I propose implementing 2 stop signs on 11th street. This will allow walkers and bicyclists the right of way, and will help drivers better communicate between Woodlawn (one-way street) and 11th Street.
Fiber contractors did not tunnel deep enough when they crossed the B-Line (what a surprise!). In the section of the trail between 1st and Dodds there is now a sort of "speed bump" spanning the width of the trail pavement from where they crossed from one side to the other.
Shrubbery in street island on south Walnut. When you are looping around from college to get back onto Walnut to head north, it’s very difficult to see around the island looking south on walnut so that you don’t pull out in front of an oncoming car that is also headed north.
