Several months ago a vehicle drove into and knocked down a light pole on the opposite corner. Due to that, there have been metal cables coiled up on the corner of 11th and Fairview. Now they have fallen into the right of way of the sidewalk. This is dangerous and I respectfully ask that it be fixed. Thank you.
The street lights need to be reangled or shielded so the light shines only onto the intersection and stops blinding the houses at the intersection. The light on the southwest corner is particularly bad due to the height of the land and the angle of the light. We issued several complaints when the intersection was re-done and nothing has ever been done. The light pollution is terrible at this intersection and there is no reason it should be brighter than even Walnut and Winslow. Please install light shields to angle the lighting properly.
Heading east or west on 2nd street/bloominfield rd. The intersection at Adams is really out of hand. East and west always has a red light which builds up traffic while adams north and south rarely has a single car pass. In addition the light at patterson and 2nd heading east and west is always missed timed with the light at adams. When adams goes green heading east, patterson goes red. Please please help or at least respond via email and give a reason as to why these are so poorly timed.
The intersection on 17th Street and College avenue. The stoplight where you turn left on College Avenue, the left turn signal is about a second long giving no time for cars to turn left.
Kirby Alley is tagged as a street in the City's GIS system and this appears to be a mistake. It shows up in the City's street centerline product published on the City's data portal. For planning, streets this close to downtown would have sidewalks, but alleys do not. This is also a traffic issue. Having this alley tagged as a street means that Google Maps (shown in image) and other software will give driving directions down the alley, which is usually not intended or desired for pass-through traffic.
The road/sidewalk construction crew sprayed concrete on my car as I was driving down the street. I assume they were cleaning out the cement truck, but ended up spraying the hose as I drove by splattering my car with cement and rocks. I think it will all wipe off and not harden on the car, but I'm not exactly happy about it or having to clean it up.
Left turn backups continue to get worse from Smith and 10
The property at 708 S Adams St. is in a very run-down condition and it is at times being used by homeless people and they have been caught carrying property out of the house. The police have been called on these issues. However, our church Adams St. Chapel own's the propertiy connecting with this house at 712 S. Adams St. and are concerned for our pastorial family who have recently moved in that there could be issues with people living in and coming and going in the 708 residence. We would like to get it boarded up or condemed so that it is off limits to anyone and we would feel much safer. Please let us know if anything can be done to get this place condemed as unfit for anyone to live in. The lady who lived in it was admitted to Golden Living Nursing Home and her name is Margret Lamb. I don't believe she owns the property but maybe she could tell us who does and they can be notified about the current problem. Thank you. We will be waiting to hear from you. Mrs. B. White
Since the end of the construction on 17th St, a crosswalk sign along with its pole has been lying on the ground. Several times, because it was an obstacle on the sidepath, I moved it to the side. The crosswalk is over 17th St just east of N Arlington Park Dr. It has curb cuts for a cross walk while it's not painted in the street. The sign should be either put up or taken away.
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.
