Traffic Related Complaints

1720 N Kinser PIKE

Case Date:
6/23/2025

The northbound traffic at Kinser Pike and the bypass gets so backed up many evenings past Brookdale Drive. It takes so many lights to get through. If you’re going straight, the majority of the cars are making right turns, especially now with the amount of student apartments that are along the south end of Kinser Pike. There needs to be a right turn lane on that side of the intersection. Also, on the opposite side of the intersection, the right turn lane and the straight lane of southbound. Kinser Pike holds a lot of water when it rains due to the new white curb with the white poles that has been installed there. Those are really an eyesore, but it’s causing water to flood when we have rain.

Traffic Signals

S. Rogers st. and w 3rd st.

Case Date:
4/24/2025

My wife and I live at 515 W 3rd st, in Prospect Hill. I would like to request a simple upgrade to the functionality of the pedestrian signals at the S. Rogers st. and W. 3rd st. traffic interchange. I will reference the City of Chicago as a best practice. In Chicago, in almost every intersection with a traffic light, all pedestrian signals utilize the following sequence: a) When the light turns green, the white walk icon light actuates. b) When the pedestrian signal reaches the 30 second level (sometimes more or less than 30 seconds, depending on the overall duration of the light), the white walk signal changes to a red blinking don't walk icon and countdown timer, which counts down the remaining walk time. c) When the timer reaches 0, the blinking light changes to a full red don't walk icon. This coincides with the traffic light turning yellow. d) This functionality is in place 24/7/365. This functionality provides crucially important situational information to both drivers and pedestrians on the status of the traffic light. This is especially important as we somewhat frequently witness incidents of road rage at this intersection, as an unintended consequence of the no right turn on red signage that has been placed at this intersection. I am generally supportive of the no right turn on red signs, but the signage has definitely created this new issue. Because this functionality already exists at this intersection (in some pedestrian signals, at some times of the day), there should not be any material cost to make this change. It will require a technician to modify the code in the microprocessor that controls the lights. Please feel free to reach out to me if you would like to discuss further. Thank you.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

100 S College Ave # 220

Case Date:
6/11/2025

I don't have an actual issue. I witnessed this vehicle driving over the curb and into this flower bed on the evening of 6/2/25 (~5:38 pm). They left the scene soon after. I just wanted to share my knowledge with the city in case they are looking for the person responsible for damaging the flower bed.
