street light at 8th and Grant is burned or burning out. A good addition of a light would be on the opposite side of the pole at the alley between 8th and 9th on Grant, where the apartments have one for their lot, but the street is dark. The light at the corner of 9th and Grant is really bright and a good solution for intersection lights.

Just after the light, headed east, there's a big square patch much lower than the road surface. Its on the right hand side of the lane and people swerve into oncoming traffic to avoid it. I don't think it's a pothole, maybe an old drain or a utilities hole.

Cherokee drive is now a through street to Osage place and already drivers are driving too quickly down the hill. I'm requesting that a traffic calming bump be installed somewhere in the new Osage place Cherokee Drive. Thanks for keeping our narrow street safe.

Landscaping crew at this Airbnb blew leaves into a big pile on the street, not bagged, and it’s making an already narrow road even more difficult for pedestrians and vehicles to pass.

Street Snow Removal
338 S Morton ST
- Case Date:
- 12/1/2025
A request for snow removal practices going forward. The location is where South Morton ends at the Convention Center overflow parking lot. Vehicle traffic is stopped by three yellow bollards, but many pedestrians and cyclists use this road to enter the B-line from Morton St. In past winters, snow plows push the snow into a large pile that entirely blocks off the end of S Morton St, so even pedestrians can't pass through. In the past, I have shoveled a pathway through, but it takes hours depending on the size of the pile and how frozen it is, and I have to redo it every time plows come through, and I go through at least 5 snow shovels per year since they break from the amount of snow I need to move. Now I have a back issue, so I can no longer shovel a path through. Can you please coordinate snow plowing so that the end of S Morton is not entirely blocked? Maybe a smaller plow (like they use on the B-line) could work with the larger plows to keep the path as open as possible. Thank you.

Absolute CRATER of a pothole on the stretch of N Woodlawn between 11th and E Cottage Grove, just across from Luddy. Completely blew out my tire, I had a flat within 30 seconds and had to buy a new one! Not to mention, the campus busses take this route every day. I have seen numerous people fall because the driver hit this pothole head-on. It is only a matter of time before a campus bus gets a flat. PLEASE fill this pothole! It cost me $150 dollars!!!
