Trees and weeds overgrown in side yard and impairing traffic and street on Broadview Drive.
The amount of semi tractor trailers traffic has increased. Semi’s turning from Bloomfield Rd on to Allen have to wait and block traffic for the turn while using the their lane and the center turning lane. Also they almost bother lanes of Allen St for a block or more until they get their semi straightened out. And if 2 happen to pass each on Allen st they have to crawl to not hit rub each other or take out mail boxes or trees. When they heading westbound on Allen Dr and try to get on to Bloomfield rd is an ordeal depending which way they and turn in and if they have a load. I don’t understand why something can’t be done to force them to use the truck route that was put in just for this purpose.
This section of sidewalk along West Third is almost completely blocked by weeds.
The alley-way behind the salvation army and the brown house next to it has discarded lumber and overgrowth blocking access to & from the alleyway.
Received multiple calls that this street is blocked by the construction development of the new apartment complex across the street. Spoke to HAND who transferred me to the Street Division who transferred me to Engineering Department, where I left a voicemail. Multiple residents/vendors of our apartment location there on Lincoln Street have been told that they cannot use the street today d/t construction and as of 20 minutes ago it was blocked. This is the only street in and out of here for us/residents/etc.
pulling out of the parking lot of IU Health SIP office onto Rogers Street you cannot see Rogers Street clearly due to the landscaping being to tall
I'm not sure if you are aware, but they are resurfacing Washington and that makes this the PERFECT opportunity to do something here that makes sense, ie: not paint a line and say it's for bikes and hope/pretend that cars don't park in it, because they will. The easiest and most obvious solution is to do nothing, or at most paint a "sharrow". Simple fact is: a car can't block a bike lane if it isn't there.
At corner of Ralston Dr and Rockport Rd there is a line of sight hazard due to very tall foliage. It is very difficult to see traffic going NE on Rockport without sticking your car out into the road.
When driving north on Harold St to 10th street there is a large shrub, on private property at 404 10th St , that blocks the view for the turn onto 10th. My family has now had several close traffic wrecks at that intersection. Can that shrub be cut back or removed by either owner or city? Thanks
