The apartment development on Gourley Pike has just poured a curb that impedes access to W. Cascade Ave. The curb extends into the approach to W. Cascade. There is no longer room for 2 cars to pass one another simultaneously to enter the street
Vegetation from the yard (North of driveway) is six inches into the street.
A construction sign is completely blocking the bicycle lane on a very busy street with speeding drivers. The sign was originally used to warn about road construction. But that construction was complete more than a week ago. All of the past week the lane has still been blocked. Why does the city not fine the contractor for this negligence? The contractor also left a significant about of debris in the bicycle lane between the sign and 17th street. Why does this happen? Does the city really care about bicycle safety?
7th st (at intersection with maple) fully blocked by downed tree
Vegetation growing into roadway. It is thorny and a hazard to cyclists or automotive finish. I understand the vegetation is allowed to grow wild within the property, but this is clearly impinging upon the travel lane of Hillsdale Drive.
We are wondering if the E/W stretch of concrete between 707 N. Lincoln and 711 N. Lincoln is an alley (public thoroughfare) or a driveway (private property). If the former, the resident/tenant at 707 has blocked passage through it with stones and a basketball court. We have assumed for a long time that this is actually an alley and would like to be able to walk down this stretch, but if it is indeed private property we would like that made clear so that we not trespass.
Every time I drive through this intersection, there is a car parked in front of this house and I have to drive around it. It's right in front of the traffic light, and this is VERY dangerous - especially because people love to run the red light at this intersection all the time. Would appreciate both if (1) the property owners/residents be reminded that they can't park in the street, and (2) the city could be made aware of the amount of people who run this red light. I see people run this light every single day. (I don't even know what can be done about this, but I wanted to make you aware of the problem if you weren't already)
There is almost always a truck blocking one lane or another around this area in the a.m., but this is a bit ridiculous — two at once taking up most of both lanes with just enough space for a car to squeeze through. This was about 8 a.m. on 3/21/23. One of the drivers lost control of a keg and it rolled across the street, too. (Apologies for poor quality, this was taken quickly while stopped at the stop sign. I waited there while he got control of the runaway keg.)
Construction is just a nightmare. The road to my knowledge is open heading south but every time I try to get through, construction vehicles parked all over the street and semi’s blocking the road. Will city look into this. Happens during early hours and gets worse as the day continues.
The alley behind my business is blocked with Trucks and cars servicing IU building next door. Since IU parking lot is right there why are the trucks blocking the alley. My customers need access to my parking lot and Trucks and cars parked in the alley make it difficult to enter my lot.
