The railing on the north side of the overpass between the B-line and College is damaged. Some of the uprights appear to have broken off and the fence is listing into the sidewalk. There have been spot repairs here before--I reported one last year. A spot repair would be good, but I suspect something more permanent needs to be done.
There are several areas of crumbling sidewalks on South Laurel Ct. in Peppergrass. Many residents need a smooth walking surface due to use of walkers, etc. Dogs get pebbles in their paws, children cannot safely walk on these areas. These areas have been in need of repair for several years.
Sidewalk raised and broken due to tree roots causing tripping hazard.
sidwalk broken sidewalk need fix
The north side of 13th Street between Indiana and Fess has an old limestone masonry sidewalk, maybe from the 1950s (?) It is interesting for historic reasons - it looks like it matches the sidewalks that flank Lincoln between 10th and Cottage Grove - but parts of it have degraded to a point that it is now a bit awkward to walk on it, especially at night. (It is definitely not ADA-complaint.) Is there an office in town dedicated to historic preservation that could commission a team of masons to redo this sidewalk? There is a concrete sidewalk just east of this block that appears to match the pattern, but it is poured concrete with pattern-pressed and actually looks a little comical, as if it is trying to be something that it is not. Also, a side note: there is no sidewalk on the south side of 13th Street in this block. If there were one there (especially ADA-compliant), people could more safely walk from campus to "The Standard" along that street.
There is a patch of sidewalk in front of 3215 E Winston St that is completely eroded to gravel/dust (see attached picture). This is a safety hazard, a nuisance, and an eyesore for those walking the sidewalk and living in the neighborhood. Anything that can be done to repair this stretch of sidewalk would be sincerely appreciated!
Tripping hazard caused by uneven sidewalk section.
The tree/roots between the sidewalk and road between 2704 and 2702 E Brigs Bnd has caused the sidewalk to tilt and hold water. This will pose an icy surface and is difficult with my walker. I also am concerned the water will cause damage to my driveway. Is this something you can look into. Thank you. V/R Kenneth Crevier
On the Howe St. sidewalk of this address there is an indentation in the sidewalk that is holding water after it rains. The elevation of the sidewalk is also a problem. The caller had also contacted HAND to request an inspection and repair.
