Potholes and damaged road all along Rockport Road between Tapp Road and Rogers&Rockport intersection
Potholes and damaged road all along Rockport Road between Tapp Road and Rogers&Rockport intersection
Large deep pothole at the crest of the hill on Rockport Road close to Pinehurst Drive. You must hit the pothole to avoid driving into oncoming traffic, risking damage to your vehicle.
There is a deep growing pothole at the corner with Cathcart Street going towards Mooresville Pike.
2 street lights not working. Corner of Cathcart and S. Renwick. The other is at the corner of Cathcart and S. Ira Street
The road needs re-paved. It was great that the potholes got filled, but the road itself just needs an actual coat of ashpalt on it or something. Every time it rains, more if it washes down the sewer drains on the street.
Street light at corner of pine meadows and Pinehurst drive works inconsistently, rarely staying in. Street lights along Pinehurst do not function either.
Early morning hours light will remain red and won't be triggered by waiting traffic.
This light is on a timer that is disproportionate to the traffic that flows on patterson. It is constantly backed up to rogers during high traffic times and is green while no cars need to exit fairview.
Light sensors need calibrated. Stops Patterson traffic with no traffic on Fairview.
The signal at this intersection was set for a number of years so that it was traffic activated. Recently, this has been changed so that that light switches to red on Patterson (for quite a long time!) even when there are no cars waiting on Fairview - which is almost all the time. This holds up traffic on Patternson, which often backs up, sometimes to a depth of six or seven cars, and occasionally enough that the last cars in line can't make it through the intersection until the next cycle of the light. The city did this a few years ago with this light, only to change the light back to traffic-activated status after a few months. Has the lesson of that time now been forgotten?? Time to go back to things the way they were a couple of months ago! Leave well enough alone, people!
