Traffic's been unusually bad at the Hillside & High traffic light this week due to the Sare Road closure. High is being used as a detour. This is problematic since Childs school drop-off (8:30-9) and pick-up (3:30-4) result in lengthy back-ups at the High & Hillside intersection. Can someone be assigned to direct traffic at this intersection during those high periods of use while the Sare construction is happening?
Police property attached to tree in the yard.
I live near the intersection of Arden and High. I have personally witnessed several cars blow through the 4-way stop without stopping or slowing down. There are a lot of children in this neighborhood, including many who walk to Child's school. Please consider some sort of traffic warning/calming/etc at this intersection. Thanks, Sarah Schmiechen
Trucks are using their engine brakes on the bypass/College Mall Rd. It's very loud. I can hear them inside my house. Perhaps the police department could help restrict the use of engine brakes in this residential area.
Speeding on w. Allen is getting out of hand
The towing company Tow Time at 2620 S. Rogers street. Tow trucks travel down Fairview to W. 7th several times a day racing their engines a driving very fast even when school is in session. The noise from these trucks is so loud that you can still hear them as the get to the down town area. Our neighborhood has complained to the owner and to individual drivers this past summer. The noise is a disruption and a nuisance.
Please, can something be done about cars speeding up and down Winston Street? The posted speed limit is 25mph. I live at 2809 E. Winston. Thank you! Kathy Sheehan
I have started commuting to work on my bicycle and this prevalent and irresponsible action of drivers running red lights, especially when making left turns, just became increasingly dangerous now, more than ever. This happened to me this morning going north on the bypass crossing 3rd street. I had the green signal for more than a second yet the driver continued to make her left turn coming the opposite way, passing behind me! I witness this offense every day and is simply unacceptable.
Another mailbox was hit on Allendale Dr. in Sherwood Oaks neighborhood near the corner of Allendale and Dunstan. This is the 2nd time this mailbox has been hit by a distracted driver in the last month. I live on the corner of Allendale and Dunstan and have witnessed countless drivers fly through the stop sign. This is also a city bus stop as well as my child's school bus stop. I am now in fear of letting my children use the sidewalk to walk to the little library, the park, and friend's homes. We shouldn't have to worry about this in our neighborhood. Many kids, adults, and pets use these sidewalks every day and shouldn't feel scared or worried that they are in danger. My neighbors dog was hit and killed last year at this 4 way stop. Let's do something before another pet or person gets hurt.
