Lights 118 (Rogers and B-Line) and 149 (between Adams and Moravec Way) are not working.
Lights 118 (Rogers and B-Line) and 149 (between Adams and Moravec Way) are not working.
The sidewalks between the B-Line Trail and Madison Street at the 3rd Street bridge are getting overgrown. Both sidewalks on the north and south sides of 3rd Street running west from the trail to Madison have low hanging trees and overgrown shrubs. There is also a lot of loose sand on the south sidewalk of 3rd Street overpass. As the only way onto the Trail at 3rd, this all makes for an adventure. On my Bicycle I have to be very careful. I'd like to see this trimmed. I bike commute on the trail from the south to the area of 3rd and Madison. My roommate bike commutes to Cowork. I see others use the sidewalks too. Could be much safer. Thanks!
Three out of four were fixed. But 118 is still out. Also, 89 is out. 4 lights along the B-Line Trail are out 151 & 149 between Adams and Moravec 124 between Fairview and Rogers 118 between Rogers and 8th St.
Lights out along the B-Line: 159 151 (this one was recently replaced and was back out after a couple days) 118 (was on the list to be replaced, but was never fixed) 102
Lots of fallen branches. Some large limbs hanging precariously.
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.
Cynthia owns property just north of Bryan Park at 818 E Maxwell. On Bryan Park property just south of her property there are 4 drainage tiles that have collapsed. Holes are 6-12in deep in area that has not been mowed.
I was at a cookout at Bryan Park this past week and noticed the orange slide near the shelter on the Woodlawn avenue side isn't very sturdy. The top of the slide where it connects to the rest of the structure only has one bolt and it looks as if it should have 4. A man there commented on how "treacherous" it was and wouldn't let his daughter play on it.
We had the water meter turned off due to a line break. Our plumber tells us the meter itself is shatter and will need to be replaced.
several potholes in the eastbound side of Rhorer Rd, east of Walnut St Pike
