Scooter blocking sidewalk, 600 block, South Ballantine, west side of street.
Fourth Street sidewalks and street pavement conditions between Washington and Rogers Streets (and perhaps further). The roadway is littered with potholes, cracks, undulations, bumps and is generally in poor condition (all of this precedes any activity around the fourth street garage, serendipity construction and Vectren pipe or line modifications). The roadway and sidewalk are not suited for cars, bikes, scooters, power chairs nor for the emergency vehicles, school buses and city transit buses that utilize it. Pretty much the same for the sidewalks.
When trying to make a turn from Orris Dr onto W. 11th St, the excessive growth from this home obscures the view enough to where a driver has to stick the nose of his/her car all the way out on 11th to be able to see if the way is clear. Obviously, this is dangerous. It could cause an accident with cars, schools busses running to and from Tri-North, or any pedestrian walking down the sidewalk - which, in and of itself, is obscured.
The overgrowth at 913 W. 11th St is obscuring the view for drivers turning from Orris Dr to W. 11th Street t the point where a driver has to pull the nose of his/her car all the way out onto 11th St to see if the way is clear. Obviously, this could cause accidents with other cars, school busses going to/from Tri-North, or pedestrians crossing on the sidewalk.

I live on the corner of S Clifton and Hillside Drive, each day I feel I take my life in my own hands as I walk east on Hillside Drive. There is no shoulder between the sidewalk and the street. Cars are speeding by well over the speed limit, liter a few feet from me and potential disaster. I would ask that you look at 1. Lowering the speed limit 2. Mandate a soft shoulder between the sidewalk and street. 3. Place a speed indicator. Anything you can do I feel could reduce the potential for the next accident.
