Blocked Street
502 E Kirkwood AVE
- Case Date:
- 3/21/2023
There is almost always a truck blocking one lane or another around this area in the a.m., but this is a bit ridiculous — two at once taking up most of both lanes with just enough space for a car to squeeze through. This was about 8 a.m. on 3/21/23. One of the drivers lost control of a keg and it rolled across the street, too. (Apologies for poor quality, this was taken quickly while stopped at the stop sign. I waited there while he got control of the runaway keg.)
Sidewalk & Curb Complaints
308 W 4th ST

Hello!
I work at WonderLab Science Museum. We were wondering what would be needed to improve a curb that is on the west side of our building in the front. It goes into an alley that school buses use. Bus drives have a very difficult time getting in without hitting the curb. This curb also has an accessibility ramp that does not line up with the rest of the side walk on 4th street going west (due to the entrance to the parking garage of the neighboring residence). The curb cut is currently closer to the alley way than on the corner of the sidewalk.
We would like the ramp to moved to the corner of the curb for accessibility and bus movement. An oversized cut on that corner would be ideal.
Thank you!

The overhang to Bubs burgers is far too low. As a tall person, I have to go around it and step into the road.
Why are sidewalks discriminating against tall individuals? I pay taxes to maintain this area and deserve to be able to walk freely on that side of the street.

The cover of one of the new boxes in the ground for the fiber optic cable is off. This makes a deep hole about 1.5 x 3 feet that a small child or dog could step into.
Street & Traffic Signs

Hello, I am filing this report to follow up on open case #181958 regarding "Cross-traffic does not stop" indication signs to be added to the West- and East-facing stop signs. I would like to see this report acted upon as there have been more collisions and near-misses since I originally reported this intersection and as a nearby resident, it would reduce the extra noise (honking, collision sounds, yelling, etc) off an already very busy/noisy street, and I worry for the safety of drivers, especially those unfamiliar with this unique intersection that are most at risk for causing an accident to occur. Thank you for your consideration in this important matter, and I hope my remarks are helpful as you move forward to a solution.

This sidewalk has been broken for FOR OVER 2 YEARS! And it has been reported before. It's been broken for so long you can see the damage on the satellite image you're using lmao. Pretty bad. Not just is the corner broken up into large chunks but going down the sidewalk east on 17th, the sidewalk has been worn down for years as well with no repair. One is walking on sharp pebbles instead of smooth sidewalk. Not sure what it takes for you all to actually give a shit and do something about it. But, y'know, it would be pretty cool if you did.

The hole that a contractor dug to install the fiber in November 2022 is caving in across my driveway.

Request a new Street Light

in the morning and in the afternoon when school is starting/ending one can spend more than 10 minutes making a left turn here. Today I had one car ahead of me attempting this who eventually turned right after 11 minutes, while at least 5 school buses trying to get to Tri-North and a large number of cards piled up behind me. A stop sign or a light that is programed for school hours would make it a lot easier and help keep everyone arrive on time. An additional challenge is that you have a lot of new drivers (HS) who don't always use their turn signals or don't know to stop before turning on to Prow Rd and allow for taking turns.
