(Not really "street repair" but I couldn't find the right category): The eastbound Stop sign on Maxwell @ Highland, in Elm Heights, is OFTEN ignored. I have seen cars race right through it without even the pretense of slowing down. On foot, I have jumped out behind the car as it sped on, waving my hands and shouting "STOP SIGN!!", and once a driver waved an acknowledgment. Another time, driving north on Highland, I turned and followed the offender, honking and blinking my lights hoping s/he would notice that someone had noticed and be alert next time. The Stop sign is quite visible, not obscured by overhanging trees, so I am stumped. But I wonder if it could be moved closer to the road, enlarged, painted (the post too) a more neon/catchy red, and/or moved to the CENTER of the intersection (tricky for the snowplows, I know), and/or a "Stop-sign alert" sign added well before, or maybe it could be removed altogether with appropriate alerts posted for the north/south drivers, which might be safer than assuming people will stop. This is a potentially lethal situation for drivers, bikers, and walkers in a very pedestrian-heavy neighborhood. Thanks.
Hole in street just off curb resulted in fall and twisted ankle. East side south in front of Chevrolet corner of Buick Cadillac and Auto Mall Rd
Missing street sign for E Hunter at Mitchell.
Street light out on the corner of Abby Lane and Camby Lane in the Bentley Court neighborhood, off of Winslow.
Road (asphalt) is cracked from one side to another - all of its width, right in front of 1630 S Ira St. Please fix/pave/take corrective measures for crack not to become worse.
The alley way behind Mother Hubbard's Cupboard (1100 W Aleen St) needs gravel. Traction is limited right now, but we need to be able to have trucks move through without getting stuck. Thank You
Small crater in the road. West side of Rogers (southbound lane) just north of Lois Lane. You'll know it when you hit it or see it. Large hole that keep growing. Not sure if this is City or County, just hoping someone can patch it. Thanks!
Street light on S. Walnut across from West Allen is out
