I am writing to ask when I will ever be able to park my car near my house again. I live at 1416 S Monon Dr and all street parking has been outlawed pending road work that seems to have moved North onto Walnut St. A flyer was circulated at the beginning of May stating that the work would conclude before June. It has now been two months that no one on my street has been able to park at their home. Unloading groceries, entertaining guests, and transporting garden items have all been difficult or impossible because of the parking embargo. I have a motorcycle in storage that I can't take out because there is nowhere I can safely park it near my residence. Is there an end in sight? Should I just leave the motorcycle in until next summer? Obviously if the tentative end date is as illusory as the June deadline just don't tell me because that will be more infuriating than just hoping to wake up one day on a street not ravaged by smashers and cement trucks.
The west entrance to the shopping center that contains Staples and Barnes and Noble from Pete Ellis Drive is in terrible shape again. I understand that it is hard to keep this intersection smooth due to the different elevations of the two streets at this entrance, but the potholes are back and are capable of vehicle damage. The damaged area is right where the entrance road begins and Pete Ellis Drive crosses. Thank you for your prompt and excellent responses to my reports.
Traffic backups on 17th have been really bad recently. The backups start from College/Walnut in both directions. Westbound traffic is sometimes backed up to somewhere between Lincoln & Dunn, and eastbound traffic is sometimes backed up to somewhere between Madison & Maple. This occurs at various times per day, not just at rush hour. Last night at 7:45pm it took me ~10 minutes to get from Grant to College. It also causes problems for drivers turning from College/Walnut onto 17th because the traffic already on 17th St has it gridlocked between College & Walnut. I don't know what has happened recently with construction, detours, light syncing, etc., but it's really bad and wasn't like this last school year.
Timing of light seems off. Please check.
The left turn green arrow for traffic on 2nd street turning north on walnut st is out.
On Walnut Street between 4th St and Kirkwood Ave, there is a handicap parking sign that is laying on the ground in our landscaping. We wanted you all to be aware that it was there if it needed placed anywhere in particular.
