Biking & Walking

600-612 North Washington Street

Case Date:
4/23/2015

I'm constantly having problems crossing 10th street in the unmarked crosswalk at Washington. This morning I was walking southbound on Washington street, and begin to cross 10th with no visible traffic. A motorist turned eastbound onto 10th from Walnut, accelerated hard even though I was in the intersection, and proceeded to honk and yell at me I have had similar experiences on North Walnut, crossing between 10th and 17th where there are no signalized intersections. Please look into making crossing at unmarked (and marked) crosswalks safer for pedestrians in our city, especially on roads that see higher speed traffic flow.

The path that runs along 10th street has no lighting from Stonebelt and beyond. The path is used by students and residents at all hours of the day, and at night the area is pitch black. The lights of the vehicles passing make it more impossible to see where you are going and your surroundings once night falls. I know that 10th Street at this point is owned by the state, but is it possible for the City to get lights set up on the walking path? I would feel much safer if this area was better lit.

Biking & Walking

2120 S Highland AVE

Case Date:

Fix the bike routes we have! Placing patch over a patch over another patch might be good for cars, but it make biking dangerous. The stretch of Highland between the Y and Winslow are already very dangerous because of speeding cars and poor visibility around bends in road. Add poor road conditions and this makes biking very dangerous. Someone is going to get killed.

bike islands are a terrible idea, I am an every day bike commuter and I just about hit 5 college kids as the got off the bus staring at their phones and texting. SERIOUSLY, COME ON.

Biking & Walking

501-509 North College Avenue

Case Date:
11/12/2013

Hello, I wish to voice my concern in the nicest way possible. I am not asking for compensation or threatening to sue. I just want to bring light to a situation that is possibly hazardous and/or costly. As I was biking to a meeting at work last night, I ran over a large steel plate in the middle of College Ave. It is in front of the construction site where the Waffle House used to be. It nearly threw me off my bike, and I could have easily been run over by other cars. Luckily, it just popped both my tires and no further damage was taken. I would love to see a warning sign, or some sort of reflective material on these large steel plates in the future. Just something to thank about. I thank you in advance for your responsiveness. Sincerely, Caleb Fossee

Case Date:

There is a lot of sand and debris in the bike lanes on College and Walnut as they go under the railroad bridge. It's dangerous because it's difficult to get traction and keep from spinning out and falling into a lane of traffic.

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.
