Light out in front of Circle K
Going East on Grimes and turning South on Walnut in the morning and evening is already a nightmare. I must do it regularly. If you stop Eastbound drivers on Grimes from turning South on Walnut on the red light, simultaneously with the Walnut Northbound and Walnut Southbound drivers turning left on their green arrows [ie, turning West and East off of Walnut onto Grimes] then you will turn a bad dream into a nightmare. Traffic on Grimes is already so backed up in the morning and evening that it often backs all the way back to Rogers. If you choke off right-turn-on-red-to-go-South-on-Walnut for the people traveling East on Grimes, then it will back up all the way to Cook and no one will get anywhere. Hundreds of drivers turn right on red, going South on Walnut, every morning and evening. Put in a right turn lane for the eastbound traffic on Grimes!! Grimes from Walnut West is nuts every rush hour.
S. Walnut left turn arrow onto East Grimes continues to turn green every cycle even when there are no cars present which delays all northbound traffic for 15 seconds every cycle. This has been reported several times. What's the fix?
When will the traffic signal at S. Walnut and Grimes be repaired? The delays every cycle for northbound traffic is costing us in more ways than one.
Complaint of traffic light out at the corner of S. Kingsbury Ave. and Allendale Dr.
This lot backs up to Acuff Road. The resident called to say there is brush, old fencing and some debris on the backside of 1150 W. Sugarberry Court (the area near the sidewalk and Acuff Road) that needs to be cleaned up. He thinks the lot is still owned by the developer.
The drain pipe under the driveway is broken.
Our residence is 1002 W. Acuff Road. We're the only house on that road, but we have NO curbs!! Rain and water has cut a trench along the road which makes it difficult to mow our grass. All the rain and water washes dirt from the farm field behind our house through the trench and all the debris completely covers our storm drain on the corner (near the pole in the picture), and the water washes all across Kinser Pike rather than going in the drain. People are constantly driving through our yard and cutting the corner where the storm drain is. We are CONSTANTLY cleaning out the drain ourselves. We REALLY NEED curbs on Acuff Road. Please help!!!!!
We live on the corner of Acuff Road and Kinser Pike. Under the thick layer of soil and big pile of leaves lies our metal storm drain. Rain rushes and washes dirt from the farm field behind our house via the deep trench along the side of Acuff Road (obviously we have NO curbs or rain gutters), and all that debris ends up on top of our storm drain. The drain is consistently covered and therefore clogged, so all the rain water rushes right over it and flows onto Kinser Pike. We are constantly cleaning all the collected debris from the grate even though we pay for this cleaning/maintenance service on our monthly water bill. We are in desperate need of a solution to this problem.
This is a follow-up to case # 167833. So the storm drain was uncovered, which is good, however, all the debris that was covering it was thrown in our yard--very much NOT appreciated!!! Now, we have to clean that up. Plus, the 4 or so inches of silt/sand/soil in front of the grate is keeping the rain water from reaching the storm sewer as seen in my photo. We received rain today, and it just collected on the road.
