Snow plowed directly onto intersection of hillside & b line
Snow plowed directly onto intersection of hillside & b line
Snow is blocking the intersection of b-line and hillside. I dug a canyon through it last night. With my hands. It only took 15 minutes. You're welcome.
Unless GIS is wrong, this is publicly-owned land that provides a valuable intersection between hillside & b-line. My hand-dug canyon is now well-used, trampled to the point where you can cross it on a bike without dismounting. You're welcome
Signals are not responding ro traffic. Have to wait for light to change from west bound Curry when there is no one there in the first place.
North of 4th on B-line, the east ballard is directly in the path of a typical northbound cyclist. It is about 3 feet too far west. Every other ballard on the B-line is to the side of the decorative arrow, but this one is directly in the path suggested by the arrow. It is hard to see at night and is surprising every time it is encountered at night. I have witnessed one cyclist collide with it and many close calls.
Just south of lamppost 117, on the east side of the b-line, is a statue that is structurally defective. Every time I see it, it is at a different angle. Sometimes it hangs into the path. It is scary and dangerous for cyclists, as it hangs at eye level when it extends into the path. If this hazard existed on a road, it wouldn't last one week but it has been allowed to damage bike&ped infrastructure for years. The scrapyard is right across Rogers. You know what you have to do.

deep sand and gravel collects on trail due to elevated soil and grass blocking proper draining. The worst area is on trail corner adjacent to Moores Pike and culvert underneath. The area becomes problematic for wheelchairs and strollers when muddy. risky for kids on bikes and scooters. thanks
trail from parking lot near shelter to the tennis courts is not ADA compliant and hasn't been compliant for years. Rest of trail has lots of bumps and surface issues.
