This is an all-way stop with marked stop signs and crosswalks. Unfortunately, many drivers (mostly on Winslow going East or West) do not stop at all. And there are quite a few that don't even slow down if they presume no vehicles are close enough to hit them for speeding through unabated. A few anemic attempts to place police near the intersection at haphazard intervals hasn't really had a beneficial impact. This intersection is very busy and is a frequent crossing for pedestrians and cyclists along with school children. I have seen other communities that have purchased solar powered flashing stop signs that significantly increase attention to the sign. Or, to monitor the scope of the issue, and maybe levy some tickets, can one of the mobile police observation hubs (I see them at the Seminary Square Kroger parking lot) be placed at the intersection. I don't ever feel safe coming any direction in or out of my own neighborhood. With all of the out of town students and faculty returning soon, the problem isn't going to get any better. This has been a pervasive issue for the roughly 8 years I've lived in this neighborhood.

In 2020/2021 a multi-use path was installed directly behind the Woodlands condos, which included a raised cement median/crosswalk. This raised median has caused multiple problems since construction. Various vehicles frequently strike the raised median while attempting to navigate the area. In addition, the turns into and out of The Woodlands and The Stands are challenging due to the construction of the raised median. From my perception, this raised median has made the area more dangerous for pedestrians, vehicles, and cyclists. It was my understanding that the original intent by the city was to make the area safer, not more treacherous. Furthermore, the bus stop was relocated and is now closer to my home than it was before, which again causes more dust and noise pollution inside my home and the surrounding area. Clearly, an all-way stop is needed to provide predictable safety for all roadway users. Please note that neighbors have been in favor of traffic control at the intersection of Rogers Rd, Winding Brook and The Stands. In the last several years, neighbors have noticed the intersection has become less safe. I recently checked the Crash Data Dashboard and found the map to be very hard to read. I would appreciate a detailed and up to date report of the number and type of crashes reported at this intersection. Lastly, I am aware that currently, the construction that’s underway will be completed eventually, and the traffic pattern that I am referring to in this report will resume.

There is a large metal sheet over the road work that is not bolted down. It makes a very loud boom all through the night when cars drive over. Please please fix it. We can hear it two blocks away from high Moores intersection.

At the S Highland / E 2nd St 4 way intersection I have within one week noticed four vehicles that have not obeyd the STOP signs on E 2nd street going east and west. Maybe the big tree in the north east corner needs to be trimmed a little? Or put up a pre warning sign of an upcoming four way STOP?

The amount of pedestrian traffic on Eagleson and crossing 17th is extreme. Eagleson needs speed bumps immediately. There is absolutely no reason to have cars flying down that road when so many students have to walk and cross here. Additionally, there are a number of students that must cross 17th to get to the other Greek row and they take their life in their hands every single day. There needs to be a light and a minimum of a flashing pedestrian crossing stop sign on 17th.

When turning right from S Highland Ave onto E Hillside Drive, vegetation on the left badly blocks the view of oncoming traffic on Hillside. You have to nose your car well out into the street to be able to see to the left and verify that it is safe to turn right onto Hillside. Please have that vegetation trimmed.

Cars are parking in front of 302 E 19th St. in the street along the very edge of the pavement, restricting traffic on 19th St. and obstructing the view at the intersection of Lincoln and 19th. This should be a no parking zone.

Multiple student have been hit and some hospitalized from trying to walk across this very dangerous intersection. Students use this crosswalk many times everyday and also at night. The lack of lighting, signs, stop lights, and increased drivers that aren't paying attention makes this issue urgent. As a current member and resident of the Alpha Gamma Delta house I use this crosswalk multiple times every day and rely on it to get me safely from one place to another. It is very frustrating to have seen all of these accidents happen and no solution being worked on for this humongous problem. Please add a stoplight or some sort of safety mechanisms. 1 accident was already enough, but now multiple is just outrageous.

I frequently drive through the intersection of Hillside and Henderson, often approaching it from the south (on Henderson). I hope the city can consider putting a "No Right on Red" sign there. This intersection has students from Templeton and South High School as pedestrians and cyclists (and from South as drivers). When you are turning right/east from Henderson onto Hillside, you do not have visibility until you have pulled forward into the crosswalk across Henderson. Because of the difficulty seeing if you have a clearing, I can imagine someone wanting to speed into a right turn...but it is a very populated corner with Feast there and apartments and Templeton close by, and pedestrians in the crosswalk could be at risk. I have counseled my daughter, who is learning to drive, not to try to turn right until the light turns green (and to wait to signal till then). If you have your turn signal on, people behind you can get impatient...a stressful situation for a new driver. And since there is a lot of traffic going to and from the high school, this intersection has a high concentration of new drivers. A friend of hers on a bike was hit last year at that intersection.

At early hours and evening hours, it is nearly impossible to see pedestrians moving on these crosswalks. As an extremely safe driver who never takes their eyes off of the road, I have had several encounters with the crosswalks in this area where I can barely see a pedestrian and have to brake rather hard as I see them so late. I know this is an issue for many other people as we have been discussing it and given that those crosswalks are utilized for all stadium related events, they need to be better lit to ensure the safety of all pedestrians as they lie in an extremely busy road where cars go rather fast.
