My guess is you are aware that: (1) Driving west on 17th there is a small no left turn sign. (2) Drivers (to be kind) apparently aren't seeing the sign (surely they aren't ignoring it). Anyway, it is causing some big backups at times. I was there twice today and both times someone waited to turn left onto College. Not sure it is solveable, but hopefully there is something.
I submitted a report a day ago reporting that the City’s fiber project filled holes in the road with stones that were washing out. Surprise, with the rain yesterday they are even worse!
The city’s fiber project made a bunch of small holes in W 11th ST and filled them in with small river rick. As expected, they are washing out in the rain and leaving deep holes. Please repair!
The second question is about pruning - I have a friend over in the Crestmont area who walks to Butler Park often, and there are some trees on Fairview, where it intersects with 11th St, that just completely block the sidewalk there. It's absolutely impossible to walk on! Would it be possible for someone from the city to prune those trees? It's not simply a nuisance - you really are forced to walk directly in the street, and there's only a sidewalk on one side on that part of Fairview.
West of 1434 W. 11th cannot see because of tree hanging over roadway.
Pulling off if west 10th on to north adams street the visibility to the north is impossible to see. I have had numerous close calls trying to pull out off of 10th the trees and brush need to be cut back.
Stranded pedestrian: Sidewalk ends on both sides of the street going west on Rogers at the Stands. There was no signage for the lack of pedestrian access when I came out of Spicewood.
Bike route sign at entrance to "The Stands Drive" neighborhood west side of obscured.
Picture Vs. Map = unrelated. The picture has relevance as that is what traffic is like on Tapp/Country Club at 3:40 - 5:45 on a Friday near to Rockport intersection. And NO, this keyboard has not disappeared, it is holding its own; = yeah. Randy 812-360-3600
