3840 South Rockport Road

Case Date:
6/23/2018

The closed road sign is at the very end of the road for the north bound lane of rockport upon exiting Fullerton pike. I understand informing that the road is closed about 1 mile ahead, but its blocking safe access to the lane for anyone traveling to their homes in bachelor heights. I feel that it is unsafe and obstructing traffic.

The road closed barricade on Rockport (traveling southwest) and Rogers is too much in the road that buses and other large vehicles are having difficulty turning the corner from southbound Rogers onto Rockport when cars are at the intersection (on Rockport) waiting for the light. It is assumed that vehicles need to be up at the intersection in order to trip the light for Rockport travelers. Despite the closure, the road is heavily traveled due to the various neighborhoods and Summit Elementary (summer school?). Being a resident of the Adams Hill neighborhood, I travel through this intersection daily. If the barricade can be moved off the road more, that would be an easy fix. However I like that it makes it obvious to travelers that the road is closed, as I do not want even more traffic through our neighborhood than we already have. My suggestion is to alter the light-trip indicators. If the cars traveling northeast on Rockport can be further back to trip the light, it would allow cars to weave through the barricades in single file when it is their turn. This also means there should be a "No Turn on Red" for southbound Rogers. A solution would also need to allow for those in the neighborhood across Rogers to come through the light onto southbound Rockport. The traffic from that direction is minimal. My thought for those traveling from that direction would be to have their side trip individually and the lights would need to be green one direction at a time. If the closure was only for a month or two, it would not be much of an issue. However with the closure going until near the end of the year and school starting in August, this intersection will need addressed as the traffic (buses and parents) to and from Summit Elementary is quite measurable. Thanks for your consideration.

Please unblock this road it is ridiculous I live at 2738 S Pinehurst Dr and I have to drive though some neighborhood to get to my house. If you are trying to stop people from going through my neighborhood you are failing because people will just go through more neighborhood to get around the construction and can you blame them you have completely shut the south side of town down and you are going to send all the Jehovah’s Witnesses though my neighborhood now since you cut off the only direct access to their church.

The barrier in the west bound lane of Country Club west of the Rogers light blocks too much road. I know you're trying to discourage people from going down Country Club and cutting through the neighborhood but the fact is that we are going to do it. Right now turning west from northbound Rogers leaves very little room if someone is in the Country Club left turn onto nb Rogers. Please consider moving that barrier mostly to the side of the road and grass, not in the road. There are going to be accidents from people turning west and not noticing until it's too late how little road is available if cars are in the left turn lane.

This morning when I was driving to work, there were signs halfway blocking both sides of traffic at the light of S. Rockport Road and S. Rogers Road near Sunoco Gas Station. What is going on?? Please do not tell me this road is being closed off because for those of us who live back there, going down Countryside Lane and out onto Rockport to Rogers is the only way we can leave now that the four way stop at Rockport and Tapp are closed, as well as the Country Club Bridge. Hope to hear from someone soon. Thank you!!
