This complaint is for ice covered sidewalks between Nancy and High
Chuckholes on Muller Parkway at top of hill after exiting State Highway until passing Longview Mobile Home Court. Need repair in both east and west lanes.

The white traffic pylons were installed in such a way that there is now only one lane, with oncoming traffic, to turn into. This makes the intersection more dangerous, and I have seen several near-accidents there because there used to be a second west-bound lane to turn onto from Mitchell. Surely this was a mistake--the pylons could have been installed in such a way as to guarantee immediate access to Third St. from Mitchell, with no chance of a merging accident, and allowing merging further west.
Was there a rationale for the recent (this summer) changes to this intersection? With the closure of the 2nd lane of 3rd street it's dangerous to enter from Mitchell now. You're angled terribly to look for oncoming traffic unless you can crane your neck 120 degrees back and to the right. Also, as traffic heads east on 3rd street (from Mitchell) they block any visibility you might have. Are there plans to sort this out with a light, stop sign, or anything?
How is the city inspecting the newly installed curb cuts on E 2nd St. between Mitchell and High to ensure they are accessible? Several of these new curb cuts seem to have been completed, but they are not flush with the pavement -- they have at least a 1 inch lip on them.
