Blocked Street
S Rogers St
- Case Date:
- 10/2/2025
On September 29, the road project on 2nd Street near Rogers involved shutting down Rogers just north of 2nd Street. I live in that area, and in order to get to my home, I had to get out of my car twice to move blockages in the road. At the intersection of 3rd and Rogers, there was a barricade that I was able to drive by, but it was barely passable for my car and I had to almost drive up on the curb. Then at the intersection of Howe and 2nd, I had to get out of my car to move construction cones. There were cars going through the intersection and it was dark, so that was not a safe situation. Then when I tried to pull into my drive, there were construction barriers blocking it. I had to get out of my car again and ask a street worker to move it. He was very nice, though. The issue only took place that evening, but I wanted to report it since it was difficult and dangerous.

Westbound traffic on E Hillside congests at the S Walnut and E Hillside traffic light, which often causes backups and results in traffic blocking the E Hillside and S Washington intersection. Can there be a “do not block intersection” or one of the roadway painted Xs placed at that intersection? This has happened to me numerous times, and I get frustrated and honk, and E Hillside drivers either ignore me, or give me a mean look like this was my fault when they’re blocking the roadway.

Yesterday (Thursday 25 Sept) at 5:15pm, a Ford Bronco turned *North* (left) onto Dunn from 10th Street (against the one-way direction), traveled north at a high rate of speed several blocks, and then pulled into the parking lot of 820 N. Dunn. During this illegal maneuver, another car that was traveling south on Dunn (the correct direction) had to pull over to avoid a collision. The driver might not have known he was committing a violation because that intersection is not clearly marked "Do Not Enter". Maybe a sign should be put up there to make sure that careful drivers know it is one-way.

Unprofessional demolition occurring. Dust and particles (asbestos?) flying everywhere. Once the City/County have given permission to demolish, is there an office that oversees the activity? Who checks for all the lead paint flakes that are released? The crew who did this looked Mennonite/Amish, but they might not be because they were using industrial equipment - and making a huge mess.

The N Walnut St area near N Fritz Dr where the two bump signs have been placed should be repaired as I try to avoid the offset of inches but, other drivers are not patient and feel they can pull on around vs tailgating. Thank you for reviewing lowering the speed if possible in this stretch with neighborhood roads and businesses.

Vehicles driving east on Grimes often stop in the middle of the road (rather than in their "lane") at the stop sign at Woodlawn. This makes it impossible to turn onto Grimes from Woodlawn until they have moved on, leading to difficult and unpredictable traffic situations. Would it be possible to put a center line here on Grimes, just for the intersection and the approach to it? To encourage drivers on Grimes to be in their lane when they stop at the intersection.

There's an orange sign on Rogers Street that says "road closed on or after 8/20" and the road has yet to be closed. This is confusing as a near-daily user of the road and I am hoping this is removed or updated with the correct date of closure, if possible. Thank you.

The intersection of W Watson and Madison, in the Broadview Neighborhood, is used all the time to cut traffic and miss the light. Cars don't stop. They fly through the intersection. Can no pass through signs go up, but also a speed bump on either side? A speed bump on each side of the intersection would stop people from all sides. The neighbors also fly through the stop signs there.
