The intersection of Winslow Road and Allendale is unsafe. As a resident of Sherwood Oaks, weekly I witness people driving through the stop signs on Winslow Rd. or not obeying right of way. In addition, there is no safe way for pedestrians to cross Winslow from Allendale to the multi-use trail that is on the North side of Winslow (leading to the Winslow Sports Park and YMCA). This is a very wide intersection and it is not one that motorists easily see pedestrians because of the width. A flashing light, a pedestrian crossing sign, or pedestrian crossing painted stripes on the roadway would help. Sherwood Oaks and neighboring areas have many walkers who use the crossing and it is not safe to do so. In particular for children who cross the street to the park on foot or bike.

Hello. There is a battered, fallen-over road construction sign on the sidewalk on the north side of Third Street between College Avenue and Walnut Street. I believe this is leftover from the College Avenue road upgrade project that was recently completed south of Third Street. Can this sign be removed please? In its present condition it

The speed limit sign of 30 m/h on the side of Hillside going towards Highland, just around the corner from, High Street and Stier Park is now totally obscured by a blooming pear tree. Can you move the sign or remove the branches that hang in front of it?

I sent the attached e-mail to the Project Managers for the 494/169 interchange project, but it occurred to me I should send it to the City as well. Many of the traffic circles part of the project (specifically those in the southwest quadrant and possibly others) have earth "hills" in the circle centers which make it difficult to see vehicles already on the circle to which one must yield when entering a circle. I suggest the mounds be leveled and only low-growing landscaping planted in the circle centers to improve sight lines.

The two blocks of S. Banta Ave that connect Tapp Road to Ralston and West Graham have no sidewalks, and many children live in the vicinity (including my own). The Broadview Learning Center's playground a few blocks away is a major draw for the neighborhood children, both in houses and in apartment buildings up and down this road. However, the lack of traffic control on Ralston and the ability to cut up Banta Avenue from Tapp Road during times of the day when the Tapp/Rockport intersection becomes congested due to commuter and other traffic (especially those using it as a means to connect to 37), means that cars race up Banta to speed around the corner and shortcut to Rockport. Since the neighborhood children have no sidewalks here, or on Graham (which is a major route to the only park that is easily accessible), it is incredibly hazardous. If the city won't oversee the creation of sidewalks on these busy "shortcut" roads, could some signs and speed bumps be put in? Particularly on Banta, which is built on a hill up one side and down the other, irresponsible car traffic makes all the parents (and neighbors) frightened for our children. Additionally, the triangular corner of Rockport and Graham and Banta has no shoulder trimmed back from the large pine trees there, which not only makes it difficult to see around, but more hazardous for the many bus patrons that get off at the Countryview Apartments, and are forced to cut through the private property on the opposite side of the street, rather than risk being hit by a motorist that can't see them around that corner.

wondering if you might consider bike lanes or a widened shoulder next time north Kinser Pike is repaved. It's a popular route to reach the Bottoms and as a driver and biker, I'd appreciate the added safety.

We need a speed bump on Allen, in between S. Patterson and Fairview. People drive very fast down the hill west of Patterson towards Fairview, right into a residential area where there are many young children and children waiting for the schoolbus

The view of oncoming traffic is obscured at this intersect by the residences. I have not been in or witnessed a collision, but I believe that safety is a concern. I believe that any misfortune might be mitigated with the posting of stop signs or the placement of convex traffic mirrors. The surrounding residences are property of Indiana University. I am a lessee of one of these properties- 824 1/2 East Cottage Grove Avenue.

Could the city look into removing the temporary sign at the corner of Pete Ellis Drive and Third Street that direct motorists to the various shops in the Barnes & Noble and Best Buy shopping centers? I believe this sign was placed during contruction on the 3rd Street and 46 Bypass construction to help motorists navigate into these shops. Now that construction is complete, can this unneeded sign please be removed?
