Biking & Walking

Case Date:
5/30/2018

This morning I was bike commuting to work when I had a near miss at the intersection of Smith Road and Morningside. A car on Smith Road going towards 10th St. did not give me the right of way. Luckily I never assume a car would give me the right of way at a stop intersection so I was able to stop in time. These events occur sometimes on my commute. However, I decided to contact you because the same happened yesterday, another car, another time of the day. Would it be possible to place extra signage in that area, e.g. Beware of bicycles and pedestrian?

DO NOT MAKE MAJOR ARTERIES TWO WAY!!!!! That proposal is insane. The people that proposed it don't live here and clearly never have traveled Walnut and College when trucks are blocking two of the three lanes. Atwater and third also should not be changed as Third is a parade of buses and the only lane able to be traveled is the left one. I hope you don't pay the Toole people. Those suggestions are not feasible and will make going downtown something no one will do any more. Insanity!

I am very much opposed to the city considering a corridor from thoroughfare from Maple to 7th Street to Fairview Street to 17th Street. Fairview School is at the corner of Fairview and 7th. The safety of school children is more at risk. Fairview Street is very narrow with barely 2 cars being able to pass. My understanding is that 7th Street is also being considered as a green corridor welcoming more bicycling which I think is a good idea but contrary to the former proposed idea of making the corner of Fairview Street busier. Thank you.

My friends and l rode the Clear Creek Trail, and finished at Tapp Rd, turned left to Weimer Rd where our map said we would find a signed bike route. I saw a narrow street. A driver at the corner said there was no bike route on Weimer. Did l miss some marker?

1916 E Arden DR

Case Date:
9/5/2018

The problem exists at the intersection of E. Arden Dr. and S. High St. There is a 4 way stop there. People driving on High St. regularly run this stop sign, even when there is a car on Arden Dr. that has the right of way. There have been many close calls there. This is also an intersection where families and children cross High St. on their way to Southeast Park. Something needs to be done to discourage cars from running the stop sign on High St. before someone gets hurt.

Is there a reason there is NO sidewalk on Indiana Avenue on either side of the street from 15th St. going north to the IU Credit Union property? It is dangerous to walk that stretch of street without a sidewalk available.

There are barricades protecting the bike lane just north of 11th on college, presumably to stop drivers from using it as a right turn lane during construction?? Nice thought but the crane significantly overhangs the barricade. Nvm that the bus stop is hindered.

East Fourth Street on the east side of Jefferson is blocked by tree limbs. The limbs hang down across Fourth (which at that point is just a pedestrian path) and extend down almost to the surface of the path.

400 W 7th ST

Can we please get a barrier like cones to partition the bike lane on third? This would help bikers feel safer and actually use the lanes and cars from blocking other cars and buses and creating problems by CONSTANTLY parking in a no parking area by slowing down and pulling over. I get annoyed as a driver but would be even more mad if trying to bike or driving a bus.
