Hello. I think our neighborhood is actually putting together a committee as so many people are concerned and keep complaining about speeding traffic on east morningside drive but we had a neighbor suggest a great idea of parking on the street or otherwise narrowing the street to slow down traffic, not just speed bumps. So ideas like https://www.smartcitiesdive.com/ex/sustainablecitiescollective/12-ways-slow-down-traffic-car-oriented-city/262221/. A neighbor suggest lines (or art) could be painted as an option to try. I forget what city it was but they simply painted parallel lines a few feet in from both sides of the road and it slowed traffic. Maybe this is cheaper for the city and can be tried? I hope someone from our neighborhood reaches out more formally soon and gives you all a call. I think we'll be part of the super cool 7-line someday? And guess we'll have something change then probably that hopefully will fix this. Maybe we can get the narrowing lines until then? The street is oddly too good right now, as it's clear and wide and easy to drive fast on! Can we get a random basketball goal and court painted? that would make cars slow down and think twice :) Take back our streets! Pleaes don't forget us. Thank you for making improvements to our safety in our neighborhoods! I drive like many, but there's no reason we can't slow down once we enter our residential neighborhoods.
West sidewalk on rogers st just north of 10th st / B-line heights (pedcore project). They're using this vacant lot as a staging area for the trades district garage. They often park overhanging the sidewalk. This trailer hitch is a daily problem. The transportation plan calls for a 1.5ft shy zone beside sidewalks, and municipal code explicitly bans parking on unimproved surfaces. So can we get at least 1.5ft here!!! The photo is from yesterday but the situation is the same today.
Co-live site, 14th& college. Mud on sidewalk, sand on sidewalk, truck bumper overhanging sidewalk. Erosion barrier still fubared.

Vegetation blocking sidewalk on north side of fairview just west of fairview/11th st train bridge.
Park ridge East is close to University but a shame there is no safe path. Spouse and I walked Smith tonight and don't feel safe letting our kids on this road. It would be awesome to have a walking path from PRE to Green Acres for neighborhood kids to safely get to the crosswalk. Awesome. Can you please pursue an easement or other way for this? Would help hundreds for years to come
Big red truck with trailer in n Smith east side of road just north of rail tracks. In yard
Noticed the iu library crosswalk on 10th is getting worked on? Our class last semester picked problem areas in town and about half of us picked that crosswalk as super awful needing to have a overpass or a pedestrian signal, etc. Please please tell me it's getting fixed finally.
Excessive growth and weeds as well as debris all over property. Also extra house not zoned correctly on property. Disregard previous wrong location. Thanks
