Tree branches obscuring stop sign at east corner of 2nd and Highland Avenue & cars blowing through stop sign.
Tree branches obscuring stop sign at east corner of 2nd and Highland Avenue & cars blowing through stop sign.
There is a near constant gridlock on 10th St. near campus due to the concern for allowing students to cross the street. Perhaps an underground tunnel would help. It is a daily nightmare.
At the intersection of Allen St and Strong Dr.,vehicles park along the curb up to and past the stop sign, making it dangerous to make a right turn. Is there a law that states a certain distance away from stop signs is required? Thank you for your time.
Please ask parking enforcement to monitor for vehicles parked the wrong way on South Park Ave. This presents a safety hazard for the students and parents of Templeton Elementary.
The 7th & Jefferson sign is bent over. Also, the stop sign at this intersection, on 7th heading west, is covered over by tree limbs. Thanks!
People have been using this walking trail as a road using cars, trucks, and motorized scooters. Driving cars on this path is unacceptable. There was once a cable at the top stopping people from driving but it has been cut. Please put a metal post at the beginning and end of this path preventing vehicles before someone gets injured.
There's something else going on in the neighborhood. The Indiana RR trestle on Adams Street is hit about twice a week. A RR truck took a look at it a few days ago. Rebar is exposed again, they will have to fix it. A neighbor says the trestle is hit about twice a week. I saw a semi with a 40-foot trailer turn around at 6th Street and Adams. Closing Vernal Pike is squeezing traffic, and maps don't help. How about a "No Trucks" and "Low clearance ahead" signs at 5th and Adams?
At the intersection "T" of Adams Hill Circle and Countryside Lane, there are rows of trees along Countryside - both sides (right and left) - when stopped at the STOP sign on Adams Hill Circle you the line of vision is obstructed by trees that need very sever trimming. You cannot see oncoming traffic from the right (coming WEST toward Summit Elementary) until halfway in the road. This road is on an incline and then EAST going traffic appears over rise and you are in the middle of the road to see traffic. TREES NEED TRIMMING!
There is no sign instructing vehicles leaving the Jordan Avenue garage driveway that they are entering a roundabout, so most of them turn left by entering the roundabout and immediately turning left. This causes near-head-on collisions as vehicles driving south on Jordan follow the roundabout around to enter the parking garage driveway.
Between approximately 1910 until about 1925 on 3/21/24, I witnessed 6-8 vehicles drive south in the northbound lane in the construction area from Fountain then turning west on 7th St. The vehicles ranged from a full-size truck pulling a trailor, the kind to haul a riding lawnmower, to an either 2-door or small 4-door car and judging from the high speed at which the car drove and the timing of the next northbound car, the southbound car entered the construction zone at the same time or after the northbound car entered from Kirkwood. This was all within 15-20 minutes on the 4th day of the closure.It's going to be a problem.
