Pothole at 3rd & Bryan St - northeast corner
Going north on Old 37 from Gourley Pike, I recently rode down the hill that leads into the Cascades. As this hill is frequently used by cyclists, it is good that it has a new smooth pavement. Cyclists will attain a high speed on this hill and maintain their speed beyond the bottom of the hill. When I did this, I came to a place where I experienced several terrible jolts. I found that there is a place beyond the bottom of the hill where the pavement is very rugged due to a cluster of deep potholes. This road hazard could easily flip a bicycle over. It is easy for a cyclist to unwittingly get caught in this perilous situation. Since many cyclists use this route one can expect what happened to me and worse to happen to many of them. This is of critical importance right now because in a few days, on Sunday October 27, thousands of Hilly Hundred riders will be riding down this hill. It is imperative that this rugged place in the road be repaired.
Potholes and deep cracks on southbound side of High Street between Hillside and Arden. It is critical for bicycle riders to stay to the far right as they ride south because of the blind hill; however, the potholes and cracks at the edge of the lane prevent this. Also please note the large crack/gap in asphalt near the water drain. The entire southbound lane could use resurfacing.
Potholes at this intersection
Sorry - it's dark and I can't get a photo but in today's storm a very, very large branch (the size of a small tree) from my neighbor's yard fell and is blocking the alley behind my house. No traffic can move through the alley. There also seems to be a downed wire.
There is a stop sign at the intersection of S Henderson St and E Maxwell Ln that is difficult to see at night. It is the sign seen by traffic heading south on Henderson. It is high - almost in the foliage of a tree - and has either lost its reflectivity or is angled so that it is not effective.
The bicycle crossing button at Walnut and Allen on the south west corner is missing.
Potholes
This section of sidewalk close to 3016 E. Daniel St. in Kensington has been lifted by several inches likely due to a tree root below. Recently witnessed an individual in a wheelchair who had been at Schmalz Park almost tip over as she attempted to roll across it. It is very unsafe and will most certainly cause someone to have an accident if not addressed. It is hard to tell from the photo how bad this section truly is, must be seen in person.
