Complaint received via twitter. After City work was done on the south side of the square, there was a large screw sticking up out of the sidewalk. I've attached the picture that was sent to us. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DFlpx5TXcAEzm02.jpg
Missing several bricks in sidewalk between the pourhouse and old national bank. Hazard for peds and cars
Northwest corner of 4th and Washington. The sidewalk is raised above a 1/2" (ADA says less) making it hard for a manual wheelchair to get over it. Must go around the block or out into the street. Can it be smoothed down or asphalt added to make it beveled?
1 upper left) This accessible space is not. To use it, you must get out of your vehicle into the street and go down the street to the left to get onto the sidewalk (see 2, upper right) and back to the meter. 3 lower left) The meter is next to a raised portion of the sidewalk which a manual chair could not traverse either way, north or south. 4 lower right) The obvious solution to this is to swap the accessible space with the one just south of it that has a ramp built into the median between the street and sidewalk. A van parking there could get their life directly onto the ramp. The other issue, of course, would be to fix the raised sidewalk so the person could then go north from there, as opposed to going around the block.
Winslow Woods has overgrown into the sidewalk along Azalea making it impassable. Residents and students walking to South are forced to walk on the road.
On Fees Lane between 10th and 9th street on the west side, the sidewalk has a wooden repair. The concert stops and this is a section of the sidewalk that is made out of wood. It is not a wide as the sidewalk. This morning (2/7), in the rain, I stepped onto that piece of wooden bridge and slipped. I did not fall, but I came really close and now I'm feeling it in my back and legs. Clearly someone knew there was an issue, but, the time to fix the sidewalk correctly was not done. If I develop any issues because of your departments failure to maintain the sidewalk, or your failure to enforce sidewalk repairs, I will be sending the City a bill.
Thank you for patching the cut in the sidewalk, but now instead of a small trench it's a bump. Please patch sidewalks to be flat. (southwest corner at Southdowns/Woodlawn intersection).
Broken curb pieces in road, I removed the largest pieces, but there are still several smaller pieces. There are actually two spots that need repair. Both are within 4' of each other. Thank you Randy Craw 812-360-3600.
Can the City review this section of sidewalk at College Ave and Kirkwood, right out front of The Tap? It may be out of compliance with the City ordinances that require a minimum 5-feet of width for sidewalks. This portion of sidewalk has felt narrow and congested for years. Today, I was walking through and with other foot traffic got pushed to the side where that limestone corner cap sticks out beyond the base of the planter and hit my leg on it. The railing from the Tap combined with that planter creates a significant hazard for pedestrians and restricts the flow of foot traffic. The sidewalk narrows right there. This could be fixed by removing the planter.
