Responded to resident and explained that the southbound pedestrian/bicycle crossing warning sign had been struck in a 2023 collision and was not replaced. Staff has asked the sign shop to reinstall the sign.
Other: The signs at the B-Line Trail cross on N. Rogers just south of 10th Street create confusion and dangerous situations. Rogers traffic headed south to the crossing are told there is a speed hump, slow down to 20mph. The Rogers traffic headed north are told there is a bicycle and pedestrian crossing. Eastbound trail traffic is told to stop, as cross traffic does not stop. It seems in experience crossing here on foot and bike that northbound traffic stops for trail users more often than southbound traffic, mainly because southbound traffic is not told there is a reason to stop or yield to trail users. Is there any consideration for a crossing signal with yellow flashing lights or better and more consistent signage that put everyone on the same page here? is this just a speed hump for the City, or is it a safe trail crossing point? With some businesses, like Friendly Beasts, moving into an area west of this crossing, there might be more trail users in the future. Maybe the City can review this proactively to prepare. Thanks.

We found that a pedestrian/bicycle crossing warning sign for southbound traffic had previously been installed at this location, but it was struck in a collision in 2023 and was not replaced. We’ve asked our sign shop to reinstall that sign. Thank you for catching this and bringing it to our attention.
Thanks for reaching out about the B-Line crossing on Rogers Street. I understand the concern, especially if the signs and markings are causing different expectations for drivers and trail users depending on the direction of travel. We’ll take a look at the existing signage and crossing treatment to see whether it is clear and consistent, and whether additional improvements such as enhanced warning signs or a flashing crossing treatment should be considered. With this being a trail crossing and the potential for increased activity in the area, I agree it is worth reviewing proactively. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
