Drivers going east on third make a U turn to get going back west on Third Street. They seem unaware of drivers on Peter Ellis also turning west onto Third. One driver went across both lanes making the U turn. Needs a NO U TURN SIGN.
Yesterday (Thursday 25 Sept) at 5:15pm, a Ford Bronco turned *North* (left) onto Dunn from 10th Street (against the one-way direction), traveled north at a high rate of speed several blocks, and then pulled into the parking lot of 820 N. Dunn. During this illegal maneuver, another car that was traveling south on Dunn (the correct direction) had to pull over to avoid a collision. The driver might not have known he was committing a violation because that intersection is not clearly marked "Do Not Enter". Maybe a sign should be put up there to make sure that careful drivers know it is one-way.
This four-way stop intersection has a very wide approach. Despite there being no visible lane markings, save for a faded arrow on the southbound approach on S Auto Mall Rd to this intersection, drivers frequently make their own rules and act like there are two lanes or just one. I don't even know what the proper lane configuration here is, but there should be clear markings and repaving done to this stretch from College Mall to S Auto Mall on Covenanter Drive. Speeds are low, but this intersection clearly needs an overhaul. It's been like this for years now, so I'm flagging this for relevant city departments.
The intersection of N Jefferson St and E 5th St currently only has a two way stop. Drivers and pedestrians would highly benefit from making it a four way stop. Cars drive 40+ mph down N Jefferson St, which makes it dangerous when proceeding from E 5th St. It is hard to see if cars are coming, because of the street parking. Many pedestrians have to cross this street in order to get to campus. I believe in the last year there have been at least 3 accidents here.
Vehicles driving east on Grimes often stop in the middle of the road (rather than in their "lane") at the stop sign at Woodlawn. This makes it impossible to turn onto Grimes from Woodlawn until they have moved on, leading to difficult and unpredictable traffic situations. Would it be possible to put a center line here on Grimes, just for the intersection and the approach to it? To encourage drivers on Grimes to be in their lane when they stop at the intersection.
Can we please get a "no parking" sign here? There is a near constant issue with people parking on the yellow curb and it's dangerous!
We have a safety issue at Zikes Rd., south. At the top of Zikes Road we have many families with young children who play out in the yards and ride their bikes. We have a speeding problem Zikes Road. This needs addressed. People come up the road going north at high rates of speed. I would hate to see a child get hurt or killed. This is an ongoing problem. We need speed bumps here on Zikes Road.
I live in the trailer court on Muller pkwy and every year with the influx of students I have been trying to turn left on to Muller pkwy and multiple times cars have come out on to 3rd Street trying to turn left ignoring the Do not enter sign I have almost been hit on multiple occasions. Then on Muller Pkwy itself students speed and do not pay attention to pedestrians and their dogs there isn't a sidewalk or speed bumps to slow we traffic down there isn't a speed bump until by the apartments complex Village at the Muller t
A painted center line is greatly needed on the newly resurfaced & heavily trafficked N. Kinser Pk. From BHSN to at least the bypass. High school kids, etc., often cross the center part of the sharp turn near the skate park endangering oncoming traffic.
Today I saw someone yell/yonk because someone stopped to look for pedestrians/bikes on the crosswalk. They were yelling because there "wasn't a stop sign," so this made me consider that perhaps placing a stop sign here where the B-Line goes across between Morton/Dodd Street would help with safety.
