Transit benches and seating during off peak hours of operation when the building is closed and no staff or security is in sight in between bus arrivals and departures has led to blocked access to sidewalks and benches that correspond with the proper transfer to the city's hospitality and retail districts, but when contacting Transit, the lines were either closed or I was told to just contact 911. Contacting 911 when you're one of very few bus riders and most of the persons are invited to take up entire benches and sidewalks and alleys that are dark without any supervision or preventive action after previous reports and constant, daily calls from various individuals to emergency dispatch leaves me feeling that continuing to call 911 and sexual harassment being viewed as a civil matter is unsustainable for any one individual who's just trying to use the transit center for its intended purpose against multiple unknown daily rotating individuals and unknown issue to All City officials. My rational response is to report it as I fear that I will just keep being viewed as someone who is having a personal issue and reacting poorly to daily grooming and sexual harassment in what has become a legal grey area of daily surveillance of lone, predictable, public transit commuters, and especially women. Your hospitality staff is trained to be welcoming and not always reacts or response appropriately at 6:30 in the morning off the clock to unknown individuals in an unpredictable environment. This is a pressure cooker the city needs to pay close attention to instead of asking your Transit passengers who are dropping in numbers to act as individual issues between individuals. I don't want to have to go speak to a judge and take off work to use your sidewalks.
Sidewalk south of Dixie is full of multiply-cracked sections. Msybe put it on a to-be-replaced lost? Also, easier to take care of: greenery is encroaching on the sidewalk; there's even a large branch there. Thanks!
220 W 14th St. This is a repeat of #212155. I need you to understand the methodology behind this photograph. I held my phone pointing directly ahead of me, with both of my feet squarely on the sidewalk (at the edge of the sidewalk). My phone was directly in front of my face. The branch directly in the center of the photo is exactly where my eyes would be if i had continued to walk forwards. Practically, this is a genuine problem because I really do walk along the edge of the sidewalk so that i can walk 2- or 3-abreast with my family. It's a safety problem because if I do not see the branch then it will hit my eye, as has already happened at this location! It's an inconvenience because it is a point where the sidewalk narrows from 5ft to effectively 4ft. Pedestrians are forced to reconfigure their groups at these narrowings. It costs us time and energy and makes conversing difficult. I'm not sure what enforcement authority you're acting under but it's a legal problem as well, for example BMC 12.24.040 requires a clear distance of 8ft above sidewalks. FWIW, I'm asking for 6ft. The transportation plan also weighs in on this, Table 5 Pedestrian Zone Design Parameters "Clear space for all pedestrian travel, should be clear of any and all fixed obstacles." I didn't think it was necessary to be so explicit but they were -- "any and all" definitely includes branches that extend 6 inches into your eye sockets. The specific undesirability of having fixed obstacles extending over the sidewalk exactly at eye height *for any distance* has been explicitly acknowledged and i can't believe i'm trying to point this out today. Anyways i really do appreciate that this has seen already more enforcement action than the whole city put together before about 2022 but if this is what compliance looks like then we have a problem.
