Damaged post on NW side of Kirkwood at Washington
Damaged post on NW side of Kirkwood at Washington
This is on 6th Street between Walnut and Washington Streets on the north side of the road on the northwest corner of the alleyway. The sidewalk is raised above a 1/2" (ADA says less) making it hard for a manual wheelchair to get over it. Must go around the block or out into the street. Can it be smoothed down or asphalt added to make it beveled?
The pavement on the south side of 6th Street between Washington and Lincoln Streets, in front of the Monroe County History Museum is impassable for someone in a manual wheelchair. Degradation is pretty severe.
The curb cut has turned into a sink hole at the southwest corner of 9th and IN. The sidewalk on the opposite corner (north side of 9th between Indiana and Fess) is also a problem.
Sidewalk on NE corner of Dunn/11th has a sinkhole forming in it. It is not too large now, but it is dangerous and progressive. Not clear is this is a City issue or if the adjacent property owner is responsible for sidewalk upkeep.
It was reported to me that one of the stop signs at Grant and Alice had been damaged. I did not see it. A citizen texted me. >>>>>> text below: Hey, realize this isn't exactly your department, but someone has turned stop and street sign at Grant/Alice intersection 90 degrees
So much broken glass in the bike lane
Sidewalk project is complete, but the large signage was left behind. See east side of property along Grant.
The traffic lights at 10th Street and the Bypass no longer operate the way they used to. Either the sensors no longer work, or the system has been set up in a manner that allows for particularly long waits for cars traveling east or west: left turn signals are triggered whether there are cars needing to turn left or not. The eastbound direction always gets the green light first, regardless of traffic. This always occurs, whether during rush hour or even on Sunday mornings at 7:30 a.m. This very inefficient setup is not how they used to function. Why?
The "Stop at the Stop Bar" sign is missing. The sign and the pole have either been removed or stolen because you can see where it once was placed.
