While traveling West on Kirkwood, just prior to Rogers, on the North side of the street is the curb bump out to protect the parking spots. It needs to be paint yellow ( the curb) to alert motorists about an object in the road. One can easily see that it had been hit by many a tire and rim. Thank you for your consideration to this matter. Randy Craw 812-360-3600
Hello, I just moved to a new home. I am not sure if the side walk and curbs are safe in this neighborhood. There is no sign for speed limit and the curb itself is not safe. I feel really unsafe to leave the kids alone outsife.
The entrance to the alley between 725 S. and 701 S. Highland is a wreck with a steep step off that included a sheared off street level. And the concrete is broken up with a muddy base up to the line of the alley-city sidewalk. Also the curb from 701 S. to the alley is broken and muddy. Additionally the entrance to the same alley from Jordan Ave. is also broken, but less so.
The treeline along the west end of Weatherstone lane has several dead trees. With as much pedestrian traffic as there is along there I think it is a safety hazard. Please inspect it.
If city is responsible for sidepath on the 45/46 bypass, there is a large rock and broken glass covering the path just south of 17th Street on the east side of the bypass. Also a fair amount of broken glass in patches continuing north and west.
Sorry, but this was the most appropriate place I could find. I think the street department does a terrific job. However, I have a complaint about the actions of a snowplow. I live at 344 S. Rogers st. I went out several times yesterday to keep my front sidewalk clean. Sometime after 8 pm a snowplow came by so fast that snow was thrown not only on my sidewalk but also on the retaining wall next to the sidewalk, see the picture. What is even more annoying is that the same snowplow did not do this to my next door neighbor. I hope that in the future the snowplow driver will have more understanding of the problems with going too fast and ruining a homeowners hard work. Thank you
The property owner just south of me added a driveway ramp in September 2013 that completely prevents water runoff on the east side of N. Park Ridge Rd. (My property is #300). Water stands for weeks without draining. It is a traffic hazard - especially now when it completely freezes over. (I spoke with members of the street dept. who were out trying to clear the area during the last storm on Jan. 5/6. They told me they would report it to the dept.). It will be an even more severe health hazard in the spring/summer during mosquito breeding season. I understand the need for the ramp. However, could you persuade this resident to at least partially remove some of the ramp to allow water to effectively drain once again - please? I made a report on this issue in September 2013. According to this program the case was/is closed. However no action was taken and the situation persists.
Sidewalks not shoveled at 1311 and 1309 S Walnut. St
Sidewalk in horrible disrepair in front of 420 W. 4th St and adjacent houses.
At (or very close to) 509 N Lincoln St there has been water flowing onto the sidewalk for months. There is now a huge mud slick across several yards of sidewalk that everyone waking on that side has to step into the street to avoid.
