Biking & Walking
East 7th Street
- Case Date:
- 8/9/2017
In the transition from Longview Ave. to E. 7th St., the asphalt multi-use lane turns into a double-wide cement sidewalk. I've always stayed on the path because it links directly to the underpass at the bridge and seems and extension of the bike path. But today someone told me, "Get off the sidewalk idiot!" I pride myself on following the rules of bicycling. AQm I right or wrong to be using that stretch of cement?
Also, Smith Road between 3rd St. and Moore's Pike is a disaster for bicyclists--way too narrow to safely bike on the road, but only a cement sidewalk on the west side, which then vanishes to become a multi-use path on the WEST side of the road, which then vanishes again at the corner of Moore's Pike to become a sidewalk traveling west. How can my kids safely ride their bikes down Smith Road!?

Please shovel paths for pedestrians to get through massive snow mounds to cross at any intersection. We walkers take our lives into our hands, in all that traffic.
Traffic Signals

- Case Date:

A tree branch is obscuring the yellow turn arrow on a traffic signal at 2nd and High. The traffic signal is for westbound traffic on 2nd Street. The signal itself is located on the western side of the intersection and is the southern (left when looking at the lights as traffic would) signal hanging there. It should be trimmed up.

Good morning
Is this road ever going to be repaired? Someone made a big deal about this a while back, and we were told it is the city's responsibility and would be repaired after graduation. It is almost July and the situation keeps getting worse.
As seen in the attached picture, the water is always there. It is constantly leaking from the sewer. The road in question is East 11th and Fee Ln.

Part 3 of my complaint. Last night Officer Skelton would not show up as requested to observe Randy's driving, suggesting that I video it and give a copy to the managers of the bus company. I explained they already know and are making excuses. He still didn't show. I Ieft a message for Ofcr Crider to call me. He was on a run but NEVER called me back. HELP.

Potholes and general surface area of brick crosswalk is in disrepair, with uneven surface area. The concrete surrounding the brick is falling apart, creating hazards for walkers, bicyclists, runners, etc. Restructuring & re-surfacing needed.
