Sidewalk in front of house has degraded to a point that it is dangerous if someone used a scooter in the dark along this stretch, or even walking. Next time the owner applies to renew the rental permit, please stipulate that the current sidewalk be taken up and a fresh one poured to match the rest of that block and remove the current hazard.
Here in Winslow Farm it appears that almost none of our sidewalks intersect with the road in an ADA compliant manner. My Wife was transitioning from this sidewalk end to the street (East Winslow Farm Drive)and her mobility scooter tipped over dumping her in the road. She sustained three serious wounds which required a trip to the emergency room, where we spent fives hours. I don't know if this is a city issue, Winslow Farm issue, or combination of the two. She is not the only mobility challenged resident here and I would hate to see someone else seriously injured.
A scooter has been parked on the east side of Jackson, on the sidewalk, between 3rd and 4th for weeks. Thank you.
The sidewalk on moores here is sloped dangerously towards a steep drop into a creek. It's not safe for wheelchair/mobility scooter/crutch users
Ridgefield IV neighborhood Bob Shaw is the developer. Bob tore out sidewalks august 2022 without city’s permission. Almost 2 yrs later and still no sidewalks. 3 residents with disabilities(one uses a scooter) along with multiple children in neighborhood. We need accessible sidewalks and for the city to go after Bob Shaw!
With all the new people coming to town I think it would be helpful to place one of those yellow safety signs on the B- line where the B- line crosses Kirkwood like the one on 6 th where the B-line crosses it. I have lived here quite awhile and I still often forget to check for pedestrians, bicyclists, scooter, etc crossing the B-line on Kirkwood. In fact I think it would be helpful to place these yellow safety signs wherever the B-line crosses the streets.
I'm disabled and can't shovel if I try to back the truck into one lane. Wouldn't be able to unload my scooter from the truck bed and road would be blocked.
Hello. I am a graduate student at the Kelley School of Business. This semester my team and I are responsible for consulting with a small business, Wick's Wheels, to help the store gain more access to students and make a greater presence on campus. One of the things we are recommending is the business have a "booth" opened on Kirkwood for next welcome week helping to kickstart a scooter rental idea we are pitching to them as well. I am just wondering for reference, would the business have to gain a permit to set up on Kirkwood somewhere or how would that work? Thanks!
The scooter sales business has a temporary sign without a permit.
