Mid-way on 4th between Dunn & Indiana, south side of street. Sidewalk is blocked with a fallen limb.
189142 - FYI this is not a Duke issue. It doesn't look like a power line. Perhaps ATT or Cable. Maybe put it on the list for the crew to inspect before calling Duke, who will likely just say its not their issue.
The new pedestrian crossing signal at 11th and Diamond has a locator tone that beeps continuously 24/7, all day and all night. The signal is very close to my house (<10ft) and I can hear the tone from inside my walls, which is absolutely maddening when I'm trying to fall asleep! Please turn off the persistent locator tone on these signs, there are other tactile cues to help those with impaired vision find the crosswalk. Thanks!
The north/south cycle at the intersection of College and 45/bypass is extremely short, to the point where only a few cars can make it through the green before the signal changes. This is potentially dangerous because folks will run the yellow to make it through. A traffic study is needed here, and potentially a smart sensor to permit more throughput when there are more cars waiting at the light.
Small pothole in front of driveway at 11th and Blair. Hopefully can be repaired before winter!
The sidewalk on both side of our driveway have become a major trip hazard with about a 5 or 6 inch drop. We have small children that have tripped and fallen due to the root system of the trees that have caused the sidewalk to raise and crack. Additionally, small animals seem to make their way under the sidewalk.
Uneven sidewalk in two places on this block (south side)
Can the sidewalk at xxx East 7th Street be shaved down to eliminate the height difference between the two adjoining slabs? See photo attached. This height difference can be dangerous for westbound cyclists riding on the sidewalk who need to negotiate both a quick right turn and a left turn to enter the SR46 underpass. Now that an asphalt multi-use path has been built at Relato Bloomington at the intersection of Pete Ellis Drive and Longview Avenue, westbound cyclists are more apt to ride on the path/sidewalk vs. the street, and will continue to ride on the sidewalk all the way to the underpass. Cyclists will be going at speed since it is downhill westbound. To negotiate this sidewalk height disparity, while at the same time negotiating a sweeping turn, poses a dangerous situation that can be easily eliminated.
