Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

Case Date:
4/12/2013

I'm a resident at S Southern Pines Ct. I and serveral of my neighoubrs rely on city bus #2 to go to work, and the only bus stop within walking distance is located at Country View Apts. However, there's no convenient way to get to the bus stop from Southern Pines, because there's no side walk on Rockport Rd between Country View Apts and Tapp Road. The road in this section is very narrow, and there's no shoulder next to the lane either. People would have to walk through bushes right next to the road. Plus, Rockport is becoming a rather busy road, with many cars constantly rushing by at a rather fast speed. With the limited visibility due to the the big slopes in this hilly section, it is extremely dangerous for pedestrians even during the day time, not to mention after dark. I strongly request the city to put an effort in completing the missing sidewalk on Rockport between Country View Apts and Tapp Road, since a lot of people's safety relies on this. Thank you.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

Case Date:
4/8/2013

I would like to bring to your attention the poor walkability of Rockport Rd between W Pinehurst Dr and Graham. This 200 yards' block is the "missing link" between the Southern Pines neighborhood (which has a decent sidewalk network) and the Country View apartment complex, which has the closest city bus stop. On this block of Rockport Rd, if one is to walk north from W Pinehurst Dr along the west side of Rockport, the sidewalk simply ends in a fence (pictured in the photo attached). I pass there often, and I've seen pedestrians use the road shoulder, which is quite dangerous, what with the narrow street, heavy traffic, and limited visibility (hills). On the east side of Rockport Rd, there is sidewalk part of the way, but it is not continuous either; besides, crossing the road twice may be dangerous, especially for older people and children, considering what the traffic and visibility in Rocport Rd is like. I think it would be highly useful for many residents (and for people who have to drive through there) if some kind of improvement project were undertaken. One ought to either build a sidewalk along the west side of the road, or to complete the sidewalk along the east side and create marked pedestrian crossings at W. Graham and W. Pinehurst (or W. Ralston).

Potholes, Other Street Repair

313 1/2 E 3rd ST

Case Date:

There has been a large dip in the concrete in this sidewalk for quite some time now. It is located right when you pull in off of Third Street into the alley between Baked Cookies and Sweet Claire's bakery. The sidewalk must have been unstable when it was poured and one section has sunk down about six inches, leaving a ledge between the two sections. Thanks for your attention to this concern.

Business

Case Date:
4/1/2013

I am very annoyed by the new Tap bar on the corner of College and Kirkwood in the center of our downtown because they broadcast through speakers to the sidewalk area anything and everything: TV, sports casts, music, live entertainment. It is annoying and inappropriate for that area of the downtown. I think it cheapens the area. Can anything be done to stop it?

Street Snow Removal

Case Date:
2/27/2013

Airport road snow plowing and salting-yesterday that is on feb 26 2013 Airport road had many accidents.All between 2:30and 3:30pm.snow started falling after noon but no salt truck or plower came on the road.Iwould like to know why ? I saw trucks after the snow stopped.I am writing this because it was very personal to our family.One car came right into side of our garage .you can see the picture on the Pantagraph.we live in this house for more than 10 years now.i noticed that snow trucks and powers give last priority to Airport road and the streets off the road. As you know there is Normal community high school on Raab road and most of the students and their parents and Unit5 buses use the Airport road.It should be your first priority to salt and plow Airport road as soon as snow starts to accumulate.Please see that you salt and plow before and during the end of the school that is 2:30 pm.I think those accidents could be avoided if your department monitored the condition of the road better.
