There is a piece of rebar sticking up out of the sidewalk along the Northside of Fairview Elementary School. My wife and I were walking to farmers market this past Saturday and she tripped on it, almost falling to the ground. This needs to be removed.
The HAWK crossing on S Walnut St between Switchyard & the B Link has some serious safety issues due to drivers not stopping for the flashing red light. I have witnessed even BPD officers blow through this. If our own cops can't figure out how it's supposed to work, I have no confidence in regular drivers. I have nearly been hit at this intersection multiple times due to drivers either not stopping for the flashing red or blowing through the solid red entirely. This corridor is in the highest priority tier on the city's safe streets map so I am hoping Planning or Engineering can look at ways to improve this intersection. Even just increasing the solid red timer would help in the short term, but this HAWK crossing doesn't seem to work well in general compared to the ones on Country Club or the new one on the rail trail on S Rogers.
Can the city figure out a clearer pedestrian route to connect N.Woodburn to Old SR 37?
Can the city connect N.Morton St to N.Woodburn, with a pedestrian bridge over the railroad? In the next transportation plan update, can Woodburn be deemed a neighborhood greenway?
Can the city connect Blue Ridge Dr and the Visitor Center to the lower cascades playground parking lot? I'm asking this one for a friend, her vision was a grand staircase, more of an art object than a bike trail.
Can the city connect N.Old SR 37 to N. Skyline Dr? There is an old roadbed parallel to and south of the waterfall in Cascades Park and it's creek, with a yellow gate by the small pedestrian bridge by the lil circle thingy. Crossing N.Kinser near the basketball courts/ skatepark can be a little daunting with the poor sightline of the curve. I suspect a crosswalk further west at Skyline Dr may feel safer.
Can the city connect E.Glendora Dr to Old SR 37, by the site of the old motorcycle shop? I assume it would include a sidewalk to Cascades Inn and crosswalks across N.Walnut and N. Dunn.
Can the city connect the B-Line to N.Summit St? There is a user path, with exposed bedrock. I believe the elevation ~11'.
Can the city connect the B-Line to N.Maple St, a neighborhood greenway? There is a user path, with exposed limestone bedrock. Guessing the elevation is ~14'. I believe there is space in the B-Line ROW for a ramp.
