At 8:35 this morning, a Centerpoint Energy truck was idling in the bike lane, blocking both lanes so I had to drive in the street, even though there's that big electric sign not far from that spot that says No Parking in the Bike Lane. There was a dude in the front seat reading an ipad or something.
I noticed that the "ONE WAY" sign on 7th Street to the east of Lincoln is behind a tree. The sign is in the median of the bike lane curb on 7th, and it is pointing an arrow to the north, presumably to tell traffic headed east on 7th that Lincoln is a one way. A small street tree is planted directly in front of the sign, obstructing its view.
There is a large put next to the sidewalk at 7th and Grant that has been there for over a week. It used to have caution tape around it, but that has since disappeared, too. I just don’t want anyone to fall in! Thanks!
Trees were planted when the bicycle path was built. Later, the stop sign on Seventh at Dunn was reinstalled. Now, a tree blocks the stop sign when heading east on Seventh so you can't see the stop sign on the right/south side of the street.
Heading east on 7th towards Dunn, there seem to be trees or tree branches blocking every stop sign from full visibility. This seems dangerous to have the one intersection with stop signs in that area have obstructions of being able to see the stop signs as a vehicle driver.
There is an unsecured steel road plate covering up a pot hole, it is not secure and dangerous. It also makes a loud, echoing noise all day and night and residents in neighboring apartment buildings hear the banging all day and all night long. It needs to be secured or the pothole or road issue needs to be fixed. It's been like this for about 10 days.
(1) The speed limit sign on S. Swain Ave. posts a 30mph limit between University and E. 2nd St. This is a block with 3 houses in an area with 25mph. It would make more sense to make it consistent. (2) This evening another deer almost got hit at the intersection of S. Swain Ave. and E. 2nd St. Drivers speed on E. 2nd St. between the stop signs on Jordan and Mitchell. To make it safer, a stop sign should be placed at this intersection. At the very least, a Deer Crossing sign. I've lived here 5 years and it's been a constant concern.
South of the intersectio of E 1st Street and Eagleson (formerly Jordan), the stop sign is completely obscured by tree branches. I have had to stop quickly several times, only because I live in the neighborhood and know there is a stop sign. But if you don't know it is there, you cannot see it. The other day I forgot and almost ran the stop sign into First street. IT was very scary. I am concerned about traffic accidents here.
Debris in the road. 1st Street and Washington, north east corner.
