Traffic light out of sync
On E Second Street on the west end across from Rogers and Binford schools: the YOUR SPEED indicator sign has been broken for a while now.
The light at Walnut and Kirkwood is mistimed for northbound traffic on Walnut. Instead of waiting at one light and then getting green lights for the rest of the lights on Walnut, traffic has to stop at Kirkwood and again at 6th Street.
The 'do not walk' light on the southeast corner of 7th and Walnut is burned out.
Constituent reported that the sounds (those in use for the visually-impaired) on the traffic signals at the SE and SW corners of Kirkwood and College aren't working.
The view of oncoming traffic is obscured at this intersect by the residences. I have not been in or witnessed a collision, but I believe that safety is a concern. I believe that any misfortune might be mitigated with the posting of stop signs or the placement of convex traffic mirrors. The surrounding residences are property of Indiana University. I am a lessee of one of these properties- 824 1/2 East Cottage Grove Avenue.
11th and Grant. This stop sign is just hanging by a single bolt (with no nut) to the pole. And it is also only approximately five feet off the ground unlike the other stops signs in the area that are about 7 feet off the ground.
Traffic headed south on Washington is no longer forced to stop. Street parking on the northwest corner of the intersection makes it dangerous for cross traffic to pull through the intersection on 6th. There are bound to be accidents.
Is there anyway the city can paint parking lines on 100 W. 8th street? Before the paved this road, there were lines and since they paved this I believe last year, the city has neglected to doing this causing vehicles at times to take up two spaces. This has been mainly an issue at night. Please look into this. Also, the blue curb for the handicap space is extremely faded and really needs to be repainted.
I wanted to propose the addition of a pedestrian crosswalk at the intersection of N Fess Ave and E 10th St. I live in Collins, and when walking between Hillcrest and the general courtyard buildings there are no immediate crosswalks in the area. The addition of white lines, particularly on the west end of this intersection (where there is already a metal grate where the sidewalk meets the road) would be very helpful for residents of Collins and would make the area safer for pedestrians trying to cross the street.
