Please! Can someone tell me why the intersection of Second Street and the B Line is still impassable?!? I understand that anything south of Second Street is part of Phase II so officially there has been no need to complete it and that there will eventually be a fancy inlay saying "Second Street" but just having a large hole where that eventually will go is unacceptable! Every other intersection along Phase II of the B Line has a piece of plywood or something laid over it so people can safely cross, why hasn't that been done at the busiest intersection along the trail! I bike that section of the B Line at least 4 times a day and every single time I have to awkwardly go offroading in order to get back on the trail for that 3 feet of trail that isn't paved. Or I have to continue on to Morton Street, usually angering drivers who are trying to turn onto Second. And that part of the B Line that isn't paved is so close to the street that is extremely unsafe for everyone. I can't count the number of times I seen children suddenly getting off their bikes in the middle of Second Street, with traffic that rarely yields to pedestrians, to maneuver around the unpaved section. Large groups of bikers will hold up traffic for a while as each of them get off their bike, walk around the hole then get back on. It is so frustrating and infuriating to continue further down south and see that landscaping has been completed and agility benches have been installed, yet no one has thought to put down a piece of plywood over that tiny section of trail that makes it extremely unsafe and inconvenient for people to use! I should have complained about this a year ago when it first became a problem but every day I thought "no, someone has to fix it, it's such an obvious problem that can be so easily fixed." I know I share this concern with many regular users of the B Line. My apologies for this not being a well-formed letter, I am just at the end of my rope!

We live on Wellington Drive in Sherwood Oaks and our street sign is turned so it looks like Wellington is Allendale and vice versa. Also off of Allendale, the Roxbury sign is bent. Many of the street signs hang crooked. I was hoping we could get a street sign crew to come check out our neighborhood sometime soon.
Thanks,
