Carter's Remodeling sign at the intersection of Moore's Pike and Smith Rd, in the grass. This was #173858, which I thought was closed, so maybe they just put the sign back.

A huge sidewalk is being put in on the west side of Sare. It seems like Sare is now too narrow and ripe for traffic accidents.
West 17th St was (once again) scheduled to open on 11/6, the street is still closed. Will this project ever be finished? It is now almost a year behind schedule. Hopefully the contractor continues to be fined for their poor performance.
The new pedestrian crossing signals on South Walnut are programmed to take too long. The flashing yellow takes too long and half the motorists come to a stop while others continue thru the yellow to beat it. This becomes dangerous because pedestrians see certain cars slowing and stopping and begin to cross. I've seen folks almost get hit. Then the lights go solid red, oftentimes after the pedestrians have already crossed the road. Then the flashing red is too long, confusing many motorists who can't read or understand the sign. The entire sequence needs to be shortened for safety sake.
2 "HOPE for the Holidays Auction" signs on the Renwick roundabout on Moores Pike
On Wednesday, Nov 11th this light was struck and knocked over by a truck. The truck was part of the crew putting sod down on Rogers Rd. as part of the Rogers (High to The Stands) Multiuse Path Project.
ATT and smithville were both doing work in the alley earlier this year. They dug a trench across the alley. They filled it in when done but now the trench is collapsing.
Thank you for the completion of the Sare Rd pedestrian path! Just outstanding! We who live in Hyde Park can now safely cross the street and access the neighborhoods and parks on the west side of the road and connect to Southeast Park! Wonderful!
There are signs at this intersection for vehicles turning right onto Kirkwood that say "YIELD" but I think that it would be helpful if the signs were more explicit. I am confused by them because in general left-turning traffic must yield to right-turning traffic but there is also a crosswalk at that point, which makes me wonder if the yield is for pedestrians who are crossing or left-turning traffic. In addition, the bike lane has two exits near there; I think that one of the exits is for bicyclists who want to continue on Adams and the other (at the crosswalk) is for bicyclists who want to turn right. Is the yield sign to tell vehicles to yield to bicyclists entering the roadway and turning right, for pedestrians crossing, or for traffic? Explicit signs would be helpful for all parties at this intersection.
Just clarifying where that second 'Wampler for Judge' election sign is: on Moores Pike, close to the corner of Arbors Lane. Continuing in that direction, you will see another Music Lessons sign on your left hand side. I am not sure if that is ROW, but there is a path, then grass (where the sign is) and then the road.
