There is a lot of high speed traffic on West 13th Street between Rogers and Maple and I believe it is unsafe for the neighborhood. I live at the intersection of 13th and Fairview with my son who is developmentally disabled, so it is even more concerning for me to have cars zipping by at speeds far too high for residential areas. I believe a 4-way stop would solve the problem and request that you consider this.

Thank you for the all-way stop controls at the Fairview/11th intersection south/east of the railway! This has been a huge improvement to the intersection. Can we get a marked crosswalk just south/east of the railway bridge to cross from the north corner to the east corner (as shown on my laughably cartoony mark-up)? I know that this intersection has been considered recently, so there may be a reason why a marked crosswalk was not recommended. But if there is not a good reason, a marked crosswalk here would be so helpful.

The left turn arrow for the left turn does change to green. I sat through this light on Thursday and today for two light cycles and it never turned green.

Vegetation needs to be cut back as it forces pedestrians to walk in a busy street. This issue was raised last summer and was ignored. Thanks

The traffic signal at Woodlawn and 3rd requires pedestrians to push the beg button to get the walk light to cross 3rd. Maybe that's reasonable on the west side of the intersection, but the walk light should come on automatically on the east side of the intersection, because there is no conflict with turning traffic. It is a particular issue because pedestrians coming from the north can't see what phase the lights for car traffic are in. This lack of information for pedestrians often causes some unsafe behavior that could be avoided if they could just rely on the walk signal that faces them to accurately convey whether they are in an east-west phase of the light cycle or a north-south phase.

Can the City explain how a driver of a vehicle is supposed to see cross-traffic on 7th Street from Morton without being in the crosswalk and almost in the intersection? I was headed north on Morton and came to the intersection at 7th where cross traffic now does not stop on 7th. The buildings, trees, and other clutter to either side of the intersection make it very dangerous to see bicycles and traffic coming on 7th Street. I had to completely block the pedestrian crosswalk and approach the intersection to feel safe about my assessment of cross traffic.
This is a very bad design. The entire 7th Street project seems poorly conceived and designed. I have witnessed multiple people driving in the bike lanes. Was the budget so low that stop signs and "traffic keep left" signs were not affordable and we ended up with this mess to just make something work? There are a ton of safety issues I have witnessed. Someone is going to get hurt soon it seems, or taken out by a bus mirror.

For weeks, the contractor doing the concrete curb work at Miller and Henderson has left a deep drop off as you head westbound on Miller to the stop sign unprotected. Of course they have plenty of barrels everywhere else where they filled in the cuts, but not at this the worst one. And every city utility worker coming to and fro from the Miller garage drives right by it.

The small piece of extra curb at the pinned location is in the path of cars turning from 7th onto College and is not well marked, leading to cars driving over it instead of around it
