Need limb & brush debris from storm picked up
Need limb & brush debris from storm picked up
There is a lilac bush on the southwest corner of East 7th Street and Hillsdale Drive that blocks the line of sight as you pull off of 7th. There is also a concern that people fly through the stop sign at this intersection. The stop sign is placed a ways back from the intersection. They would also like for the City to look at a multi-way stop.
Man reported overgrown bush blocking view of traffic, located outside the Walnut St. entrance to Walnut Park (the shopping center with Lucky's, Dollar General, etc.). Almost caused accident as driver could not see biker on sidewalk. Citizen does not want followup.
A CONCERNED CITIZEN CALLED IN AT THE FRONT DESK COMPLAINING ABOUT PORTABLE SIGN ON WINSLOW ROAD NEXT TO WALNUT STREET PIKE THAT IS BLOCKING THE LINE OF SIGHT FOR VEHICLES TRAVELING THIS AREA. THE SIGN ADVERTISES "SULTAN'S DEN GOLF SHOP".
The line of sight leaving Switchyard Park by the police substation to exit onto Patterson is in need of some help. First, when you look to your right (east) there is an overgrowth of brush and bushes that obstruct the view. Then, when you look to your left (west) the Switchyard Park sign is in the way! This park is horrendous for traffic flow. There is not a single entrance/exit to the park that has a well planned or safe means of entering and exiting. All three of the main parking areas exit onto a busy street with no traffic signals or signs to aid in the entry or exit. Traffic backs up on Rogers, for instance, at times when one car is waiting to make a left turn into the park on southbound Rogers. This is going to only be worse when there is a concert or an event going on. What a bad design!
At Lemon and Vernal you can not see coming out onto Vernal. This person was hit because she could not see around the corner when pulling out.
There are trees/shrubs that hinder the line of sight for vehicles pulling off of Lemon Lane onto Vernal Pike. The citizen said the problem is when you are turning to go West onto Vernal Pike.
If pulling off of Clark St. on to 3rd, you can not see to pull out due to bushes.
Citizen stated that there is a large bush at the corner of Ford and Coolidge making it impossible to see on coming traffic. (Address approx.)
Line of sight problem at the intersection of S. Curry Pike and Glen Oaks Drive. Lawson met w/Don Porter, Traffic Division. on site. The bushes & trees need to be trimmed back on 2302 S. Curry Pike.
