Concrete not repaired by contractor. Clifton union greenway.
Concrete not repaired by contractor. Clifton union greenway.
I am writing to express my concern over the design of the Third street corridor, from just east of Jordan St. running east to High St. As a daily commuter cyclist, I am concerned about the design of the bike and bus lanes on the north side of Third St. There is no safe way to ride east from the university, on Third St or Atwater. Obviously the north bike lane allows safe passage into the university but the width of the lane on Third St. means that as a cyclist heading east, cars are backed up behind me until they can pass.
Sidewalk directly east of/ next to Noodles Restaurant building @ 517 E. Kirkwood is completely dark afer 5:30 pm. Last night, there were people in the tree/shrub area as we walked toward the restaurant, hidden from view. Construction tarp along this sidewalk makes walking along this strip between building potentially dangerous. There is no lighting coming off of the building or the construction site/lot. Suggest some type of lighting from building or IU lot now storing construction materials.
Water fountain broken
A plastic drain cover in my front sidewalk is missing at 710 E. Maxwell Lane. Someone will break their ankle on this if it is not repaired. I reported this some time back and nothing happened. Thank You.
Broken glass, very small pieces, scattered across b-line, just south of crossing between parking lot behind marriot. Bad for bike tires.
Bike/Pedestrian Underpass underneath Highway 46 has stacks on concrete blocks piling up along the walls; these are difficult to see in the darkness of the tunnel, and are going to cause an accident for some unfortunate bicyclist.
Grant st sidewalk south of 9th street covered in mid and chunks of concrete.
Retaking wall collapsed onto sidewalk
Retaining wall falling on sidewalk at 307 e cottage grove
