There is quite a lot of brush/foliage that has grown onto the sidewalk at this location. It is unclear which side of the property line the brush is coming from--whether that be from 508/512 N Indiana, or from 516 N Indiana Ave.
There is quiet a bit of brush overgrowth on the sidewalk on and around the property line between 503 and 505 N Fess Avenue.
Weeds plants trees over grown makes impossible to walk on large portion of sidewalk
This is on the S Sheridan side of house. Residents have been trimming vegetation and leaving large bundles lying in middle of road, forcing southbound traffic into northbound lane. This has been going on for over a week.
Construction is very loud. It starts at 6:30am and even 6am making it very hard to sleep. There are lots of diggers, and drills which are very loud and even making the house rumble. All the residents in my block face this issue.
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.
I live north of the roundabout at Tapp Rd and Adams St. Almost every time I am entering the roundabout from the north, I am almost hit by a car coming from the west. Vehicles habitually drive very quickly into the roundabout and don't yield to traffic already in the roundabout. I often end up having to stop in the roundabout to avoid a collision, which can also be a traffic hazard. It seems that area would benefit from a speed bump for those entering the roundabout - especially from the west as they are generally travelling the fastest when coming from the highway.
New road height is significantly below curb edge (over two inches) along all of newly finished roadway on Fullerton Pike and new roundaboat but is hazard for drivers and cyclists entering and leaving Southwest public library branch. This is a very rough transition for cyclists and could cause issues as cyclists will be turning in or out while also ascending or descending over this sharp edge between surfaces.
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.
The protected turn arrow on Fee Lane (traffic turning westbound onto 17th Street) is not functioning. Our transit buses are required to turn left on a none protected signal, and the increase in traffic has made the turn challenging. The signal has a protected turn arrow, but it was deactivated at some point over IU's summer break.
