Sidewalk Requests

4151-4177 East 10th Street

Case Date:
3/25/2016

I am the President of the Eastern Height Neighborhood Association and our community has been in desperate need for sidewalks along 10th Street from E Etter Drive through to Grandview neighborhood, as well as crosswalks to University Elementary School. The Grandview, Park Ridge East and Park Ridge neighborhood organizations are also requesting this, as well as University Elementary School. We understand the complications with the State, but a meeting is needed to begin the formal process of gaining walking access in this area. Not only will it allow our children to walk to school, but it will provide community members in Tamarron and Eastern Heights the ability to safely walk to the bus stop and access the University and downtown without the use of cars. Please contact me in order to discuss how we can help you help us. Thank you very much. Lauren Dula

I have been a resident of the Eastern Heights neighborhood since 1978. Even before I moved into the neighborhood I remember seeing signs along St. Rd. 45 pleading for sidewalks to be constructed there. Our children have to ride the bus to school (even though University School is literally right across the street from our neighborhood) because of the lack of sidewalks and safe crossing of St. Rd. 45. I know that our area is governed by the Seymour district of INDOT and that they believe the area does not have enough traffic to warrant a sidewalk. I also know that the traffic count was completed several years ago in December during I.U.'s winter break and half of the town was gone. I suspect if they conducted another count during a time with typical traffic, they would find a completely different result. We have waited long enough for sidewalks. Now is the time, please! Thanks for your help in getting this accomplished.

I would like to request sidewalks along the 10th Street and a crosswalk from and to University Elementary School at Russel Rd or Tamarron Dr so that more children from neighboring communities can enjoy walking and biking to school. I understand the complications with it being a State road, but with schools and the city promoting healthy living and lifestyle, it seems that a discussion about gaining walking access in this area is important. Not only will it allow our children to walk to school, but it will provide community members in Tamarron, Eastern Heights, and nearby apartments the ability to safely access the bus stops and downtown without using cars.

Sidewalk request for 10th street to make a path to University school I am a resident of Eastern Heights neighborhood and our community has been in desperate need for sidewalks along 10th Street from E.

Not only will it allow our children to walk to school, but it will provide community members in Tamarron and Eastern Heights the ability to safely walk to the bus stop and access the University and downtown without the use of cars. Also it is essential that there be a cross walk so that children can safely cross 10th street to get to University Elementary school. Thanks for your attention to this important matter.

There are no sidewalks along 10th street in the Grandview Hills Neighborhood area and Eastern Heights. Several years back we tried to get a light/crosswalk across the University School (and the City Church) when there was discussion about widening SR 45E. I do not know what the plans are for improving SR 45 for the new hospital access and it may include some work that might help this link. The intersection at 45/Pete Ellis really needs some imporovement for left hand turns (even more with hospital coming!)

On January 13th of this year I sustained a fall on the sidewalk on N Washington St. between 6th and 5th street. My shoulder was hurt when I broke the fall and is still sore as of 4/18/16. The fall was caused by ice on the drain cover crossing the sidewalk. The covers on that block are smooth aluminum with no grids for traction. It was covered by clear ice so I couldn't see it. A postal carrier was close behind me and he helped me to my feet. He said those drain covers were a hazard to him as well. I have waited thinking my right shoulder would improve but it has not. What is the city's policy for this kind of injury? I'd prefer not to have to pursue civil litigation to correct this.
