This sign stand has been here for over a year. It used to have an End Construction sign on it, but some one has apparently taken it.

I recommend removing the new zebra crossing at the lights on the corner of 3rd and Jordan. It is the only zebra crossong at this intersection but all pedestrian crossing at this intersection is controlled by crossing signals. I have seen a number of pedestrians cross against the crossing signal at this zebra crossing suggesting there may be some confusion regarding when pedestrians can cross.
The Winslow/S. Walnut intersection is such a mess, especially when you're heading west. There is only 1 westbound lane & traffic gets so backed up if someone is trying to turn left to head south on Walnut. Since the straight & left turn lanes are the same now, can the lights be changed? It would be good if only 1 direction goes at a time. Westbound has green light for turning & straight traffic, while eastbound has a red light. Then it reverses. I used to take that route every day coming home from work. Now I go an entirely different way because it's really out of control. People sit there for several rounds of green lights when the person in front is trying to turn left. Please consider this as a solution?
During peak hours of the day (4-6:00pm), I would like to see a no left-turn sign from east-bound third street onto Rose or Union. In addition, it would be nice to have a no left-turn sign from those roads turning on third street. This area gets very congested during the standard commute to the east side and significant delays are caused by motorist trying to make those turns.
We have cars flying down Ruby Ln heading to High Street. Our house is on the corner of Ruby and S. Covenanter and they fly down Ruby Lane and turn having headed into the ditch. My main concern is that cars fly down Ruby Lane and we have several families with small children. On the lower side of Ruby Lane there is no sidewalk and these cars are flying down the road. Their speed would kill a pedestrian or a child playing if they got hit. It would be nice with a sign or a speed bump to slow some of the traffic flying down E. Ruby Lane. We never see police officers patrol our neighborhood...not even when we file a report that we are out of town and would like beefed up security checks. The same culprits drive exceedingly fast down both E. Ruby Lane and E. Southdowns Drive and never get ticketed for speeding. If you want to get extra income for the city...that would be the way to do it. Set up a police officer and catch all the drivers driving too fast down these streets.
Intersection at South Rogers and Chambers is often blocked for vehicles entering or exiting Chambers. Blocked traffic is due to close proximity to Rockport and South Rogers intersection. Please paint white X or similar markings on pavement at Chambers and South Rogers intersection to keep vehicles off of this 3 way intersection.

Bus stop for MCCSC and park at intersection, high pedestrian use intersection. Request crosswalk markings be repainted with bold "piano key" type highly visible markings.
The road is too narrow approaching the intersection at Kinser Pike and 45. Traffic gets very crowded and unnecessarily backed up. -Amanda Mentzel (I was unable to put my name in the fields above.)
In the morning from 7-9 the traffic gets extremely backed up on Kinser Pike coming from the North, the neighborhoods and the school buses from the High School. The left turn signal, to turn on to 45/46, is extremely short, less than 10 seconds I would say, and then it's extremely hard to turn left on green as there are lots of cars coming across the intersection. Is there any way to make this turn signal longer for at least those 2 hours in the morning? Traffic is sometimes backed up all the way to the Skate Park, which is on a curve so that is very dangerous. You round the blind curve and all of a sudden there is stopped traffic. Thank you for your consideration in this matter!
