The light at Patterson and 3rd doesn’t seem to be working.

Constituent reported that the sounds (those in use for the visually-impaired) on the traffic signals at the SE and SW corners of Kirkwood and College aren't working.
The traffic light at the intersection of Moore’s Pike and Sare Rd seems to be off on timing. If you are on Moore’s pike heading east/west the light is Red for a long time.
Check left turn signal 10th and college. Turning left from 10th. If single car the left turn signal seldom triggers.
Traffic signal obstructed by branches when approaching Kirkwood and Adams from the east. See photo.
YIELD sign on Adams as you are going north on Adams and preparing to turn east on Kirkwood is facing AWAY from the street. It is facing the cemetery and there is no cemetery exit at that location. This sign should be turned so it faces the oncoming traffic-- vehicles going north on Adams and turning right on Kirkwood.
I'm with the IU Grounds Crew, I received a report that the light at 10th and Fee is completely out.
We were traveling east on 10th St. this evening, approaching the bypass on the east side. While waiting for the red light to change to green, the train gate on the bypass lowered and a train approached also from the east. When a train is crossing the bypass, the light rightly does not allow traffic through from the north, as it would soon have nowhere to go. This is good. BUT it also did not allow our lane to travel through the intersection going east! I know there is no separate right-turn signal there to stop people from turning south onto the bypass, but it is not logical to stop all traffic going east as well. And besides, the light DOES allow westbound traffic on 10th Street to BOTH continue west AND turn south onto the bypass -- even though there is a separate signal there for the south-turn lane -- and those cars then are stopped by the crossing gate. This is really illogical, and should be remedied.
At SR46 and 10th St. While a train is crossing SR46 I saw two disfunctional aspects of the signaling. 1) The pedestrian crossing requests are totally ignored while the train is crossing SR46. Pedestrian signals stayed red until the train had finished crossing SR46. 2) Eastbound 10th never was given a green signal while the train was crossing SR46. There is no reason that this direction should be kept from crossing and several cars ended up crossing against a red light during the green signal for westbound 10th.
Utility Box at 1st and Walnut. Is this a new / replacement box? Or were the beautiful images painted by a visiting Cuban artist defaced ot vandalized beyond repair?
