Living on N Walnut for 4 years, I've noticed there's a marked increase in the frequency of drivers revving their engines unnecessarily loud as they go through the W 11th & N Walnut section. The sounds and incidences are so loud that they have interrupted my meetings, indoor activities, and startled me to drop my kitchenware. My neighbors have also shared this concern on how this happens much more often recently, especially in the past 2 years. I remember there used to be a couple of police officers stationed off the W 11th & N Walnut section and it was noticeably more quiet and peaceful. But I haven't seen them at the same spot anymore and the corresponding noise issues arose instantaneously. My neighbors and I would love for the city to either station an officer here to deter these activities and, in the long run, implement policies at curbing these disruptive actions from reckless people.
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.
Speeding,black dodge charger upwards of 10 times a day. Lots of speeding cars,but the black charger is out of control.
Two Kia Cars parked illegally. One is a Kia soul and the other is a Kia suv. Both don’t have tickets and one is over the yellow line
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.
Car repeatedly parked blocking in my car and blocking sidewalk
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.
Tenant submitted complaints regarding ice in the alleyway. Tenant stated that the alleyway is difficult to walk and drive on. If you could please salt/remove ice, Tenant would appreciate it.
