Street & Traffic Signs

Case Date:
12/6/2021

On behalf of myself and concerned neighbors, we request the inclusion of a stop sign at High St. and Greenbriar Lane. This is an area of fast moving traffic despite the fact that it is also a crosswalk for school children and there are numerous children walking in the area. There are numerous stop signs along High St. up until this point so the lack of a stop sign at this particular intersection is a dangerous anomaly. If you could please implement one here, it would be much appreciated by the various surrounding neighborhoods. Thank you.

With Smith becoming a mess (please address N. Smith too with the State), traffic and speeding only continues to worsen on E. Morningside Drive. Of particular disappointment is the frequent speeding of school and City buses, going far in excess of reasonable speeds with even deadlier vehicles. The small City bus (Access bus or whatever it was called) was going INSANELY quick two days ago. Recent neighborhood chatter: -At the bus stop at Sheffield and Providence this morning I watched a car fly around the school bus while it was fully stopped with its arm out. The car was heading out of the neighborhood. The vehicle was a black Hyundai Veloster, I believe. Very frequently there are kids running across this area, to catch the bus. This driver was reckless, and put our children’s lives at risk. As a mom of small kids I am very concerned with the number of drivers who don’t seem to remember they are in a neighborhood. Those who are against some strategic speed bumps, how do you propose we curb this behavior when a stopped school bus can’t even cause them pause? -I know I have many unpopular opinions such as this one, but, I fully support speed bumps. I know that doesn't ✨solve✨ it but I can't see anything else really being equally as/more effective at this point. -Hear hear! And while we are at it, does everyone know texting and driving is illegal and VERY dangerous? Our house sits high up and we can easily see down onto the road and into cars. We see how many people are doing it. If you’re one of those people, we probably see you doing it. Speeding/being reckless/texting and driving through a pedestrian/bike/pet-heavy area isn’t a problem. Until it is when someone gets struck. Please be mindful!! -I agree, we need speed bumps in this neighborhood. We live on a culdesac and it is frequently a racetrack! -We’d be happy to have speed bumps or strips on Morningside and keep all the kids by the park, crossing the intersection, safe. It’s clear it’s being used as a cut through. Someone flying into their driveway the other day in front of my son gave us a good scare. I know we all get in a rush, but slowing down would do us all some good. There are so many littles and pets in the neighborhood. -Well, since my house has been hit twice in the last 20 years by speeding teens, and the fact that the stop on N Park Ridge and Walpole seems to be ignored more than not, I'm fully behind speed bumps!!!! -Ron Smith" Please let us know what change and enforcement can be coming soon. In addition, the Longview Greenway portion behind Aldi's has now been destroyed? That was a primary bike path for our neighborhood to campus and downtown. When will that be restored? We have hopes speed humps with cut-outs and/or other measures to slow traffic will not only be present there but be present all the way through Park Ridge East for east-west connectivity and safety of children/pedestrians/cyclists.

Front yard of 704 W Dodds has been covered with large sheets of black plastic for 1.5 years. That is long enough to kill what was under it and come back with new landscaping or whatever he is trying to do. Please make him respect his neighbors and remove the plastic sheeting.

I witnessed a type of "crash" at the corner of 7th Street and Morton. The driver was headed north on Morton, stopped at the stop sign, then turned right/east onto 7th Street but the driver first tried to pull into the bike lane, then at the last second hit the bike lane barrier so hard it sounded like a terrible crash. The driver/car lost a couple of large pieces of the car on 7th Street. There needs to be better signage especially for cars driving NORTH, turning EAST onto 7th Street.

Hi there, I live at Madison Downtown, 200 S Madison Street// 47404. My current landlords are Granite Student Properties. (This property has changed property management companies 4x in the 3 years I've lived here.) There was, apparently, a literal dumpster fire at this apartment complex. It must have occurred either on 2/6/22 or the early morning of 2/7/22. My conspiracy theory: Granite seems to have been neglectful in arranging city or private trash/ recycling pickup, and the dumpster overfloweth. There was an impressive pile of trash that had accumulated over the last few weeks, it smelled, it was a problem. I'm guessing a disgruntled resident (or ex-, recently-evicted resident) set the dumpster aflame in an act of vengeance. Also, near the dumpster, there is a sizable pile of human excrement. Unclear if related. In any case, since the landlords seem to be doing literally nothing about it, this seems like something the city should know about?? Help us get a new dumpster? Make sure Granite properly informs its residents when said dumpster is on fire? Insist that Granite remove the human excrement in the apartment quad? IDK pls assist SOS help
