Large pin oak tree has large horizontal limbs that are dead and overhangs a big traffic light and sidewalk. This poses a danger to the traffic light, to cars in the intersection, and to pedestrians on the sidewalk. Please remove these dead limbs as soon as possible. Thank you.
Signal gives a green left turn arrow to east bound traffic on East 3rd for a left turn onto Hillsdale every cycle even without cars in the turn lane.
Please have the city traffic software programmers review this signal's program. It is basically ignoring the street sensors for westbound traffic on 3rd.
At the intersection of E 3rd St & Hillsdale to the north & Woodscrest to the south, the traffic light is disproportionately lengthy for the traffic traveling on Hillsdale/Woodscrest. The majority of the traffic goes east/west on E 3rd St., yet the light stays red/green for an excessive amount of time relative to the traffic that passes in the respective directions.
The signal light at Third and Woodcrest always thinks there is a car turning left, even when both East and west traffic in the turn lane is empty
I often find that this light is red for traffic on 3rd street, with many cars stopped and waiting most times I cross this intersection. There is much more traffic on 3rd street than Woodscrest and Hillsdale. It has often led me to believe that the light might be mistimed, biassed towards the traffic crossing 3rd street. I am not at all sure that it is indeed mistimed, but it seems like it, and might be worth checking if there is a way to assess that issue. (I don't know how street light timing is optimized) Thanks for considering! Sincerely, Andrew Goldman
The pedestrian crossing buttons at all four corners of East Third Street and Hillsdale/Woodscrest aren't working. Pedestrians never get a walk signal. In addition, the traffic light stays green for Third Street car traffic until a vehicle pulls up on Hillsdale or Woodscrest to wait at the light (meaning pedestrians often must try to cross when there are drivers turning left across the crosswalk).
Lot is overgrown, piles of trash are in the driveway and a homeless person lives in his car on the driveway.
Scattered trash and lots of newspapers in Drive Way, and yard are now blowing out into the street.
