The pedestrian overpass across SR46 at Arlington School has a very rough alignment with W Gourley Pike. Also, the sidewalk leading toward Colonial Crest and Kinser Pike is discontinuous and there is a blind curve on Gourley Pike at that point making the use of this pedestrian route quite hazardous for me in my power wheelchair.
Blocking sidewalk
On 10th St during the rush hours, drivers going straight will often swerve into the right turn lanes to go around drivers who are turning left and waiting for a break in the traffic. This is dangerous and I had an close call once when I was going to turn right onto Pete Ellis and a driver in the straight/left turn lane swerved into my lane to get around the car in front of them. This is also dangerous since a driver turning left doesn't expect oncoming vehicles in the right turn lane to go straight. I'd recommend a traffic officer be present during the rush hours one day to ticket people who do this so people realize that this is not acceptable. Thanks for listening!
Aren't signs like this on public land now illegal?
Based on my experience over the last three years living near this intersection, I believe we would benefit from a minor change to the traffic pattern at 10th and Range. The left lanes on both sides of the street should be converted to left turn only lanes and the right lane should be converted to through and right turn lanes. Currently, drivers need to use the left lanes to turn left and drivers behind them move to the right lanes to pass them creating unsafe driving conditions. I have seen many near collisions. I think this minor change would make the traffic pattern more safe and efficient with minimal costs to the city. As a concerned citizen, I hope you take this into serious consideration.
