Scooter blocking ramp /sidewalk
Scooter blocking ramp /sidewalk
Illegal parking happens all the time. Orange curb needs to be repainted. I see people park here all the time and it makes it dangerous when people turn right onto E. University St. from Henderson.
Request for walkway lights around the Bryan Park walking route. For both outer walkway and the inner route stating north of the pool.
Storm drain casement junction is clogged with branches. You can see it through the heavy iron grid on the drain at the SW corner of Southdowns and Ballantine. It will require lifting the grid cover the clear out.
Signage plastered on house rental
The new median at the intersection of 3rd and Grant has been helpful. However, I have seen a number of drivers who are disgruntled not being able to turn the direction they want go around the median in a dangerous way. In one instance I witnessed, I believe this caused a fender-bender accident. In another instance I experienced as a pedestrian crossing, a car made an illegal turn around the median and had to stop right before me. I suggest that there be an extra pylon placed at the ends of the median's yellow lines to disincentivize this erratic driving.
This Ditch Witch machine on a trailer has been carelessly left obstructing the entire lane of traffic on Southdowns just west of Hawthorne. Traffic is driving into the bicycle and pedestrian path with blatant disregard for those using the path. It is very dangerous and this company that left its trailer in the road should be fined a significant amount. Someone could very easily get seriously injured with this setup.
There are a couple very deep potholes in the alley between E. 2nd St. and E. Hunter Ave., near Harmony School.
Sewage system overflow; sewage/waste flowing down the street from an apparent source
Corner of Wylie and South Woodlawn. Pavement has dropped (2 inches?) In the northbound lane of Woodlawn. It's impossible to miss like a pothole because the dropped pavement has formed a hard ledge you jolt over. This would likely throw an e-scooter rider forward over their handlebars. Gives me a serious jolt in the car so very dangerous. It has been previously patched but is continuing to drop quickly. May need to check for collapsed infrastructure under the road. I will take a picture if requested.
