Line of sight issue, referred from Street.
A resident called in to report traffic signage (detour signage, perhaps?) fell into the roadway and scratched their vehicle at 2nd and Patterson. They called to inquire about the tort claims process; they were directed to Legal's webpage about the process for filing a claim. They also called to trigger a response from staff to address the signage in the roadway.
Abandoned foam mattress on the corner of S Henderson and Graham, south of BHSS.
Resident, working as a rideshare driver, reports observing traffic at the intersection of E 17th St. and N Eagleson Ave. for approximately 20 minutes. During this time several pedestrian near-misses were observed. Resident believes that Rush Week has created a situation where IU students are frequently crossing the road while distracted with their smartphones (i.e., participating in Rush-related activities). Consequently, students are using sidewalks according to existing paint markings on the road. Although 2 crosswalk curb ramps have been removed recently, paint for those crosswalks is still on the road. The paint is also impeded by mud in parts, which can be difficult for drivers to see. Students are prompting traffic to stop at 4 separate locations along E 17th St. at irregular intervals. Resident is requesting removal of old sidewalk markings and/or posting of a crosswalk closure sign.
