Northeast corner of Washington and Grimes. This tall grass makes it very difficult to see traffic coming south on Washington, pedestrians, cyclists. The grass is 6 or 8 ft tall and very wide. It needs to be trimmed and removed.
The northbound traffic at Kinser Pike and the bypass gets so backed up many evenings past Brookdale Drive. It takes so many lights to get through. If you’re going straight, the majority of the cars are making right turns, especially now with the amount of student apartments that are along the south end of Kinser Pike. There needs to be a right turn lane on that side of the intersection. Also, on the opposite side of the intersection, the right turn lane and the straight lane of southbound. Kinser Pike holds a lot of water when it rains due to the new white curb with the white poles that has been installed there. Those are really an eyesore, but it’s causing water to flood when we have rain.
I own the law firm at the corner of 4th St. and Walnut Street. My parking lot access is from the alley on 4th street. The city allows street parking on 4th street up to the entrance of the alleyway. When pulling out of the alley, it makes it impossible to see if traffic is heading east on 4th street when there are cars parked in the spots next to the alley. A space or two needs to be removed so that people can safely pull out of the alley to turn left without getting hit by oncoming traffic.
Cars driving on Adams St between2nd and Allen Sts drive very fast. No speed limits posted. Pedestrians and bicyclists must travel in road because sidewalks are not completed. Vehicle speeds are dangerously fast. Needs traffic calming
This intersection is very difficult to see around when you are trying to come off of 8th st, street parking blocks visibility to see if cars are approaching from N Walnut, and often times results in having to inch up into the crosswalk which blocks pedestrians. Even inching up is often times not enough as the front end of a car can stick out into the left most lane of N Walnut. There needs to be something done to increase visibility for 8th St. as it is not a protected intersection.
2nd time this week: While traveling west on west first, there is nobody directing traffic around the work being completed for Hopewell neighborhood. One lane of traffic is being blocked, without assistance directing traffic.
The road visibility on this corner is not good. In situations when the road floods or a lot of snow it is very hard to see where the edge of the road is on the corner. This is the second car in a flooded ditch I have seen recently. Some kind of marker would be helpful.
It is unclear who has the right of way between southeast bound and northwest bound at the intersection of Fountain and 11th. Southeast bound cars either turn left or continue straight, but there is no yield for either option. A northwest bound car could collide with a southeast bound car turning left onto 11th and there is no signage preventing this.
When there is medium to heavy traffic, this 4-way stop sign between Jonathan Dr and Alexander Dr becomes dangerous. Drivers lose their patience and take off when it is not their turn, resulting in near accidents and testy confrontations. Additionally, the traffic begins to back up into the more busy streets (3rd St and the shopping plaza), causing further delays. We need a roundabout at this 4-way stop to alleviate traffic and dangerous interactions. This would also provide better crossing infrastructure for pedestrians who use the sidewalk. Thank you!
W. 1st seems to be open through Walnut as of 12/23/24. There are no speed limit signs anymore. It used to be 20 I believe. People are zooming by excite that it’s open but it’s dangerous for animals and pedestrians. Also does no parking still apply? Speed Signage and oversight needed asap.
