Can the city consider installing “cross-traffic does not stop” signs below the stop signs on Allen Street at its intersections with Washington and Lincoln Streets? Cyclists may be lulled into a false sense of security as they ride on Allen Street, a marked bicycle boulevard, especially if they have just come off the B-Line trail where they are conditioned to cars yielding to them at intersections. As such, they might not be watching diligently for cross-vehicular traffic (or will assume that vehicles are going to stop for them) on Washington and Lincoln Streets, which does not have to stop at their respective Allen Street intersections. By installing “cross-traffic does not stop” signs (both eastbound and westbound) on Allen Street, safety can be improved by giving cyclists another warning that they had better heed the stop signs.
A traffic light is required to safely drop off and pick up children from Arlington Heights Elementary.
Overgrown bush blocking left turns, heading east taking a left north to the light.
I am trying to find out who is responsible for this cable. It is connected to one box near Kinser and Rosewood and runs 246+ feet north to another box. It has been in my yard since early May. I asked the people doing the trenching for fiber network and they said it is not theirs. I asked someone from Btown Utilities, and again, they said it is not their cable. I again went to the people trenching in my neighborhood and they said they believe it may be AT&T. I have to move this cable out into the road every single week in order to mow the grass. How do I find out, other than ripping it out of the 2 boxes, whose cable this is. The fiber network crews have long moved out of the neighborhood. Has someone forgot they left this cable just laying out in my yard? Any help is appreciated.
My daughter very nearly hit her elbow on this new sign. May we suggest that instead of this hard to see danger to bikers, we paint the poles with reflective stripes, and remove the sign? Pretty please? We use this route for multiple daily bike trips.
Vegetation overgrowth hindering sidewalk clear zone - north side of Tapp between Adams and Pinehurst.
Eastbound automobile traffic on allen st approaching patterson faces a "no turn on red" sign. However, the right turn curb radius there is more than 30 ft, meaning drivers will not only ignore that sign, they will do so at 20mph on a regular basis! Extremely dangerous and frightening for pedestrians in the area. Practically a guaranteed collision for anyone who bikes on the sidewalk there - is that your plan?
Now that the students are coming back, can the protected left turn signal going from Union St to Tenth be turned back on? Thanks.
Our children, with 2 adult supervisors have to take a chance by crossing the street to go from the east side of S Highland Avenue to the west side of S Highland to go and enjoy the Winslow Woods park. Please paint a crosswalk on S Highland Avenue leading from YMCA entrance to across the street to the Winslow Wood Park. Will need to erect signage for motorists to see there is a crosswalk. Children and adults could safely cross the street and not fear for their lives.
