There is are several crosswalks on Allen St. that are very hard to see at night. The lines could use reflective coating or blinking lights to help them be visible by car headlights at night.
Vehicles driving east on Grimes often stop in the middle of the road (rather than in their "lane") at the stop sign at Woodlawn. This makes it impossible to turn onto Grimes from Woodlawn until they have moved on, leading to difficult and unpredictable traffic situations. Would it be possible to put a center line here on Grimes, just for the intersection and the approach to it? To encourage drivers on Grimes to be in their lane when they stop at the intersection.
Can we please get a "no parking" sign here? There is a near constant issue with people parking on the yellow curb and it's dangerous!
I live north of the roundabout at Tapp Rd and Adams St. Almost every time I am entering the roundabout from the north, I am almost hit by a car coming from the west. Vehicles habitually drive very quickly into the roundabout and don't yield to traffic already in the roundabout. I often end up having to stop in the roundabout to avoid a collision, which can also be a traffic hazard. It seems that area would benefit from a speed bump for those entering the roundabout - especially from the west as they are generally travelling the fastest when coming from the highway.
Please paint the new speedbump on rogers bright yellow or with stripes. I do not think that the signs are visible enough, especially at night.
Thank you for paving Henderson, it looks great! I understand that you likely have to wait before painting on new asphalt, but I’m writing in to suggest some temporary traffic management during that time. Henderson is a heavy traffic street for cars, pedestrians, and cyclists. Newly paved roads with no markings can encourage faster speeds and other close calls with pedestrian and cyclist safety. I am most concerned about where Henderson turns into a one way. This is a bit confusion without road markings (luckily, I’ve been driving it for years). But without the markings, you do not know that the left lane is a bike lane. This morning on my commute, I saw a car parked on the left side of Henderson just after it turns to a one way, where the bike lane is. I’m not sure how much longer it’ll be before permanent markings can be painted, but some temporary markings or signs would help increase safety during the interim. Thank you!
No traffic markings on freshly paved asphalt at this intersection. Saw car southbound on Henderson completely "blow through" the stop sign. Please put temporary markings, if not permanent.
Can the speed limit be reduced near the entrance of Switchyard Park on S. Rogers Street? This is an entrance to the city's largest park and there will be a pedestrian crossing built that will also cross S. Rogers Street, to the park entrance. Currently, the speed is 30 mph, which will be too fast for a pedestrian crossing and the current busy park entrance. Per City Ordinance 18-09, the speed is reduced on Winslow Rd around Allendale Dr. to accommodate for the pedestrian crossing that is near a city park. Other examples of reduced speed near park entrances includes (but not limited to): S. Highland Ave near Winslow Sports Complex and E. Morningside Dr. near Park Ridge East Park.
The curb on the south side of 2nd street on the southeast corner of the intersection of 2nd and Woodlawn needs to be painted yellow. (all curbs in the intersection should be evaluated.) It was painted yellow prior to the curb and sidewalk work this past summer but the new curb has not been painted. This is particularly problematic when traveling south on woodlawn and turning east on 2nd if there is a car parked on the south side of 2nd street close to the intersection but all curbs in the intersection should be evaluated.
Excessive speed by most motorists from high street to Sheridan drive. No traffic control measures in place , add speed bumps or a stop sign at Eastside or something . Also many deer in area and not one single deer warning sign.
