The street light is malfunctioning. It is a free color and doesn’t provide the light necessary to illuminate the intersection, leaving it extremely dark.

People have been using this walking trail as a road using cars, trucks, and motorized scooters. Driving cars on this path is unacceptable. There was once a cable at the top stopping people from driving but it has been cut. Please put a metal post at the beginning and end of this path preventing vehicles before someone gets injured.
The striping separating the eastbound lane of W Dodds St from the westbound lane/S College merge lane is always gone. This creates visual confusion. Many drivers going east drive in the middle of the road because it appears unstriped. Then, drivers coming southbound from S College don't realize that they have a small width to turn into, causing a severe collision hazard. I use this junction to leave my neighborhood, and 80% of the time, someone is flying down south on S College and coming far too close to my vehicle at speed. This could be fixed with a small, highly visible *physical barrier*, perhaps of concrete or rubber. I have not once seen the painted stripe at this location since it apparently wears off so fast.
need a traffic sign at intersection
The double yellow line on Henderson just south of the Hillside intersection meaners all over the road. While this is mostly an aesthetic issue, the line veers to the west right at the south side of the intersection with Hillside. This narrows the road for southbound traffic on Henderson to the extent that southband vehicles routinely must cross the double yellow line to avoid hitting cars parked on the west side of Henderson. I think this section of double yellow line should be repainted several feet to the east.
Please finish traffic line striping and stop bars before winter. Thanks.
Metal cylinder blocking gas meter was recently knocked over by a car and has never been replaced / repaired.
Just wanted to say great work on N. Smith repave/repaint.
I understand State intersections but please work with State to provide better intersection support at N. Smith and 10th and N. Smith and 3rd. Both are confusing/dangerous at present as people whip around others out of line when impatient on left turners, since there is no left turn lane, etc. Vision gets obstructed and otherwise is a safety concern.
The corner of Winslow Drive and Allendale Drive has many reflective "stick" posts that are bolted to the street that are damaged or missing. These are in the eastbound lane of Winslow when turning south onto Allendale. Can these be repaired or replaced? Alternatively, since a dedicated right-turn lane exists at this intersection for turning south onto Allendale, can these posts be removed so the right-turn lane can be used again? Why was it determined that the right-turn lane can’t be used any longer? If the right-turn lane cannot be used, can that pavement be removed and the land converted to grass or a landscape bed?
