Pedestrian Crosswalk needs better markings and lights. This crosswalk at N. Fee Lane and Foster Drive has terrible markings - the paint is faded on the roadway and it is hard to see as a driver, especially at night. This crosswalk is used by many students daily and should be made more safe as my daughter was almost hit by an SUV while on the sidewalk waiting to use the crosswalk this past weekend. A car had stopped at the crosswalk for the pedestrians and an SUV that came up behind that stopped car decided to not stop and passed the stopped car on the right, in the bike lane, going approximately 30 mph just missing my daughter and her boyfriend. Please paint this crosswalk and add the flashing lights in the ground and around the crosswalk sign to make this a safer crosswalk and more visible to drivers.
The sidewalk has a severe depression, due to faulty construction in 2024 or 2025. I reported this same problem seven months ago. (See Case #204111.) Nothing has been done to repair the sidewalk. Rain, snow and mud collect to such an extent that the sidewalk is often unusable – forcing pedestrians and bicyclists into a dangerous, high-speed street.
The city never cleared the snow from the bicycle lane after the January storm. As a direct consequence, the melting piles of snow left mounds of debris when they melted – similar to glacial till. Please clear the debris from the bicycle lanes on N. College Avenue and N. Walnut Street, which has been there for nearly 3 weeks now.

The significant amount of debris under the railroad viaduct has made bicycling very hazardous there. Please clear it ASAP.
There is a 4 way stop sign at this intersection yet most people don’t come to a complete stop. Some don’t even slow down. Allendale has sidewalks that many people (kids, people walking their dogs, etc) use everyday. I would love to see people slow down before someone gets hurt maybe some enforcement from our fine police department would help.
