Bushes create blockage into street and for line of sight, parking on street with inadequate space for renters parking and traffic.
Moody Drive is not wide enough to accommodate parked cars on both sides of the street as well as through traffic. There are a few rentals in the area that have excessive vehicles that park on the street causing problems for cars to get through. She is also concerned about emergency vehicles. The residents have driveways.
Claire Robertson states that there is a parking problem on South Rose Avenue between Hunter Avenue & Atwater Avenue. There should be no parking on the East side of Rose in this block. The block to the North is currently no parking on the East side and this block should be consistent. The road is too narrow to accommodate parked vehicles as well as through traffic. There are not very many homes that front Rose Avenue.
Church goers are parking on both sides of Adams St instead of using the parking lot that was recently constructed to alleviate this issue. With cars on both sides of the street it becomes wide enough for only 1 car to pass and given the bend in the road, you cannot see on coming traffic depending on how many cars are parked out there. This leads to some dangerous situations where someone has to reserve.
There is a No Large Trucks/ commercial vehicles sign posted at this location yet semi trucks for Secretly Canadian consistently use this street for their commercial traffic and have been damaging trees on other street.
The people who live in this house constantly have several cars parked outside on the street. Sometimes they park on both sides of the road, making it nearly impassible. They also often park almost all the way up to the stop sign because there are no yellow lines or No Parking signs. It makes it very dangerous for cars pulling off of or onto Rogers.
Homeowner continues to park work truck in front of fire hydrant when not at work. Two vehicles park the wrong direction on the street.
Cars can drive faster than the speed limit over the traffic calming humps that were installed. Witness many vehicles increased speed over humps.
Vehicles consistently driving at high rates of speed on Winslow Rd. The detour on Rhorer Rd has exasperated this problem. It would behoove our community if there were some traffic calming measures implemented here, or actual enforcement of posted speed limits by BPD.
The east-west signal at Covenanter and College Mall Rd remains a persistent problem for cyclists. The signal seems to be triggered at best by a motor vehicle presence, meaning a cyclist approaching the intersection with no car nearby has no way to get a green light except by pressing a pedestrian beg button that is not accessible from the road. This is a recurrent problem that keeps getting marked “closed” but without real evidence that the matter has been addressed successfully for east-west transportation at this intersection. See these past comparable complaints: 11/12/2025 #206750 (when the signal was not even responding to a car) 8/5/2025 #204676 6/26/2025 #203711 4/2/2024 #187457
