No attempt at clearing snow
No attempt at clearing snow
I witnessed a tractor-trailer wipe out a pedestrian crosswalk button as he was rounding the corner. This was across from the speesway gas station amd chick filet. busy intersection!
This address has a "mosquito" sound-producing device that is a hazard to pedestrian/bicyclist safety--the shock from the sound has made be veer into the road in shock multiple times.
Please disregard #207053.
Failure of city to clear snow and ice from the bicycle lane.
Ice covering sidewalks on both sides of street. Last year was the same, never clear ice or snow from sidewalks. These are house rentals for IU students, so surely the owners can afford snow, ice removal!
South side sidewalk is all ice. Very unsafe. Needs ice melt .
Sidewalk missing. Hazardous and dangerous for walkers.
All of the painted lines that were crosswalks here have long since worn away and no one has come to repaint them. Some drivers still treat this area as if the lines are painted, but many do not. Crosswalks near stoplights and Hills often have people driving accelerate the most. Please repaint all four crosswalks, 2 on Washington, and 2 on 2nd st.
Instead of slowing down when motorists see pedestrians attempting to cross 3rd Street, they instead often speed up and appear to only have their eyes on the stoplight ahead of them and other cars, especially westbound traffic when the pedestrian is crossing the crosswalk from The Burger Bar to head south to the other side where the apartments, bus stop, and Pizza X is. East bound traffic is only slightly more gracious (likely because their eyes aren't fixed on a stop light that is around the corner and somewhat out of view.) Obviously, I would not walk out right in front of a car, but only cross when the Westbound traffic is high up on the hill, but they accelerate driving downhill regardless what color the stop light across from the police station is. They accelerate for red lights, even though they are hurrying up to wait. Just overall hostility and carelessness at this cross walk. Perhaps a push button with flashing lights would be appropriate here since drivers ignore the pedestrian signs and painted cross walk.
