Car brings homeless and children
Underneath the railroad viaduct, there is a substantial amount of one-inch gravel strewn across the bicycle lane.
Rain has washed piles of sand and gravel into the bicycle lane on N. College Ave. from Old State Route 37 to 11th Street. This creates a sliding hazard for bicyclists in close proximity to high-speed motor vehicles.
The street signs (i.e. S Henderson St and E 1st) are missing at this intersection.
Trash strewn in alley
There are several issues: 1) Cars and frequently parked jutting into the alleyway or the city right of way, which is a hazard to traffic and also partially blocks exit from our garage. 2) Somewhere between 5 and 10 different cars come and go on a regular basis, some of which stay overnight at different times. Thus, the backyard is sometimes stuffed with cars. It's not clear who lives here and what the nature of the living situation is. For example, is this a community that provides mental health services to young men? If so, is it appropriately registered with the city? There is too much traffic at this property to fit a typical family or group living situation. I think there needs to be a welfare check or a visit of some sort by the city. 3) There still is trash stuffed underneath a blue tarp, including half of a toilet.
Looks like I can only attach one pic. Walking East on Hagan I almost took a bad fall from tripping on sidewalk concrete that was about 2in higher. It’s the sidewalks facing back of Stonegate Court. There are at least 3 really bad spots. If needed I can meet someone there to show you. Thank you.
This intersection, no one knows if is two lanes or one- heading East on Covenanter. There is no paint suggesting it is two lanes, but many drivers treat it as such as there is enough room for two lanes. It is very dangerous. Please add paint or signage to help drivers
Pedestrian light at the northwest corner is partially obscured by overhanging branches. Also, branches of a tree in the yard of the house on the southwest corner, are hanging over the road (Second Street) and making it impossible to see the color of the traffic light until you are almost at the light, when you are driving towards Rogers and Binford schools. However, this is only a problem in the summer when there are leaves on the tree.
