Traffic Suggestions

This area does not have a left turn lane and I've been in multiple instances where the traffic has been backed up to the light because people are waiting to turn left. It seems when there are events or something at the Warehouse or Mill, traffic gets really bad. Any way to add a turn lane or remove the ability to turn left?
Street & Traffic Signs
7th street from Walnut to Woodlawn
- Case Date:
- 5/30/2025
East 7th is unique in that it is two parallel roads each with its own signage. Stop signs have been installed, removed and reinstalled at various intersections. No where else is there traffic going the opposite direction (west) on both sides of an eastbound vehicular lane. Nor is there another pair of lanes going east with a westbound lane in between them anywhere else in town. The stop signs become more critical due to the additional complexity. Going east the vehicular lanes cannot see their signs. The bike next to me yesterday blew thru every sign while pointing at drivers at the intersections. When the motorized bike, electric scooter etc. keeps going as he did the car driver will instinctively assume the same especially if there isn't a sign visible until the last minute. Delivery trucks, city maintenance vehicles, and trash bins blocking one or the other at times create confusion. Remove the trees and, if a barrier is deemed necessary, plant low bushes.

A left turn light turning from Patterson onto Allen is needed, the oncoming traffic is obscured by foliage and the curve of the road
Blocked Street
4651 S Abington AVE
- Case Date:
- 5/30/2025
Leaving an oversized vehicle and stacks of lumber blocking half of the street is unsafe for vehicles and pedestrians in this neighborhood. Lumber and steel are also blocking a sidewalk, but I was only able to attach one picture. There are vacant lots available to store construction materials which would not be a hazard to residents and visitors.
Line of Sight
Walnut St Pk & Allendale
- Case Date:
- 5/30/2025
It is difficult to see onto Walnut St Pk from Allendale, to see if it is safe to turn onto Walnut St Pk. Driver must pull very far forward in order to see if there is incoming traffic. Additionally, many people speed on Walnut Street Pike, making it more dangerous to pull out.
