Hi there! It seems like every week there is an accident at the intersection of N Washington and 7th street. I’m wondering if you could put a stop sign there since it’s really dangerous for people driving and pedestrians crossing. Thanks!
deep pothole at bus stop on south side of 7th St. just west of the intersection with Woodlawn.
Stop sign heading West on 7th is blocked from view by tree.
Every time I ride on the 7 line, which is every day, there’s some incident where a car almost runs me over. It’s terrifying but I keep riding because it feels worth it. But today, there were four incidents. Every time, I had the right of way. And every time, whoever was driving was completely unaware that there were other people on the road whose lives and needs mattered as much as theirs do. And despite my having the right of way, they all came close to plowing me over because they weren’t looking. Even when they would have clearly seen me riding ahead of them before they came to an intersection to turn. I don’t know if there need to be more signs, or speed bumps, or driver education, or making cars illegal unless you’re disabled. But whatever the case, something major needs to happen if this city is going to be safe for bikers and pedestrians. I am fed up with risking my life every day and trying to adapt to a city that is built around cars and not human bodies. When are we going to prioritize all other modes of transportation over cars, which are deadly machines that emit toxic fumes? Why is there a new parking garage but there’s no way to bike to the east side? I’m tired of feeling like I could be killed at any moment because of some stranger’s lapse in judgment. Also, there’s been broken glass in the 7 line just east of walnut for like 3 days.
There is an UNBELIEVABLE amount of broken glass on the 7th St bike path, it has been unrideable for days
Right in the middle of the intersection of 7th/Grant is a metal plate that is damaged and dangerous. It is not as big as a sewer manhole or even a water-meter cover. It is about 7" in diameter and appears to have been painted bright blue, but the entire center of the plate is missing, leaving a hole that one could step into and twist an ankle or a small animal could fall in there and not be able to escape. We called the City Streets department about this awhile back and made a verbal report, but nothing has been done about this. That was probably a month ago.
Would like the city to look into repairing this sidewalk. It’s on 400 W. 7th street on the south side of the street (close to the intersection of 7th&Rogers). Much thanks.
There is a large amount of broken glass in the 7th Street bike lane (worse in the westbound direction, but also eastbound) in two spots. One is just east of the 7th / Walnut intersection (clear glass) and the other is between Walnut and College (green glass). I hope they can be cleaned up. Thanks!
“Now Open” feather flags hanging over the sidewalk. Thank you!
The sidewalk in front of Chabad House and Sigma Chi are both really icy.
