Apartment building (Hyatt Place) construction on S. 4th Street between College and Madison has been frequently blocking traffic or limiting it to one lane near the B-Line for the past 8-12 months. There is rarely anybody directing traffic (and if there is, it is usually a construction worker who only sometimes has a handheld stop sign). Construction vehicles often dart out into the street during high traffic times (morning and evening work rushes) and block entrance to nearby apartment buildings. Furthermore, lack of barricades or proper containment causes debris, shrapnel, and other detritus to spill into the street from construction vehicles and dumpsters, often causing hazardous conditions for drivers and vehicles. My own vehicle was recently damaged by stray debris (which was impossible to avoid) and may even be totaled as a result. This also creates dangerous conditions for pedestrians on the sidewalks and makes it impossible for pedestrians on the B-Line to see oncoming traffic before crossing 4th street.
Woodburn and Grimes street sign down
Missing stop sign at Silver Creek and Winston. It was knocked down.
Overgrown sidewalk
There is a dead dog just off the road at the NE corner of 3rd Street and Franklin. He has a collar. I saw him from the road...didn't stop and look for a tag.
This car has been parked in grass behind 900 w. 8th street for years.
The Solid Waste District hours are terrible. I was just turned away at 5:34pm as were a bunch of others (cars lined up behind me trying to leave the lot, so they expected it to be open too). If the hours were friendly to the people trying to recycle they would be open MORE on the weekends, not less. And they would be open MORE after 5pm, not open during 9-5. Unless you're trying to pick up recycling primarily from servers and bartenders, these hours do not make sense.
