Blocked Street

Case Date:
6/11/2018

This morning when I was driving to work, there were signs halfway blocking both sides of traffic at the light of S. Rockport Road and S. Rogers Road near Sunoco Gas Station. What is going on?? Please do not tell me this road is being closed off because for those of us who live back there, going down Countryside Lane and out onto Rockport to Rogers is the only way we can leave now that the four way stop at Rockport and Tapp are closed, as well as the Country Club Bridge. Hope to hear from someone soon. Thank you!!

Case Date:

The barrier in the west bound lane of Country Club west of the Rogers light blocks too much road. I know you're trying to discourage people from going down Country Club and cutting through the neighborhood but the fact is that we are going to do it. Right now turning west from northbound Rogers leaves very little room if someone is in the Country Club left turn onto nb Rogers. Please consider moving that barrier mostly to the side of the road and grass, not in the road. There are going to be accidents from people turning west and not noticing until it's too late how little road is available if cars are in the left turn lane.

Please unblock this road it is ridiculous I live at 2738 S Pinehurst Dr and I have to drive though some neighborhood to get to my house. If you are trying to stop people from going through my neighborhood you are failing because people will just go through more neighborhood to get around the construction and can you blame them you have completely shut the south side of town down and you are going to send all the Jehovah’s Witnesses though my neighborhood now since you cut off the only direct access to their church.

Traffic Suggestions

2027 South Rockport Road

Case Date:
6/13/2018

The barricades set up on Rockport Road at the intersection of Roger's Street and Rockport Road are creating a dangerous situation. Specifically, the barricade in the lane for Rockport approaching Rogers requires traffic to drive in to oncoming traffic. This particular barricade doesn't seem to serve any purpose, as it is only visible to traffic traveling on Rockport towards Rogers street, the opposite direction of the Tapp/Rockport intersection.

Line of Sight

Case Date:
6/14/2018

I noticed several signs that are overgrown by foliage, causing them to be hard to see. One sign, a stop sign at E. Hunter Ave and Eastside Dr. is dangerous as it is covered up and could cause an accident. Other signs on E. Hunter Ave and South Eastside Dr are also covered. See photos. However, when the "foliage trimmers", came by, my tree was the only one trimmed and the 'parking permit' sign could be seen by an airplane as they butchered the tree. Other signs were ignored. Why? I would like them to notify me, the owner, if it needs to be trimmed and I would like to be there or do it myself.

Traffic Signals

Case Date:
6/18/2018

RRFB at allen&walnut doesn't work - northbound traffic does not yield. Went through twice on bike at about 9:30-10AM today (June 18), activated the beacon, and both times, SB traffic yielded and NB did not *at all*. I did not investigate the flawed design - that's planning&transportation's job.

Blocked Street

Case Date:
6/20/2018

The road closed barricade on Rockport (traveling southwest) and Rogers is too much in the road that buses and other large vehicles are having difficulty turning the corner from southbound Rogers onto Rockport when cars are at the intersection (on Rockport) waiting for the light. It is assumed that vehicles need to be up at the intersection in order to trip the light for Rockport travelers. Despite the closure, the road is heavily traveled due to the various neighborhoods and Summit Elementary (summer school?). Being a resident of the Adams Hill neighborhood, I travel through this intersection daily. If the barricade can be moved off the road more, that would be an easy fix. However I like that it makes it obvious to travelers that the road is closed, as I do not want even more traffic through our neighborhood than we already have. My suggestion is to alter the light-trip indicators. If the cars traveling northeast on Rockport can be further back to trip the light, it would allow cars to weave through the barricades in single file when it is their turn. This also means there should be a "No Turn on Red" for southbound Rogers. A solution would also need to allow for those in the neighborhood across Rogers to come through the light onto southbound Rockport. The traffic from that direction is minimal. My thought for those traveling from that direction would be to have their side trip individually and the lights would need to be green one direction at a time. If the closure was only for a month or two, it would not be much of an issue. However with the closure going until near the end of the year and school starting in August, this intersection will need addressed as the traffic (buses and parents) to and from Summit Elementary is quite measurable. Thanks for your consideration.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

Case Date:
6/21/2018

The brick street on Park Avenue, in between 8th and 9th Streets, was torn up by the construction crews when they built the new Fiji house. They completed the work a while ago, but the street is still in awful shape. There are ruts everywhere, and a huge hole just south of 9th street. The bricks need to be replaced on this whole block.
