Hello- There multiple cars blocking the bike lane on washington between 4th and 3r streets this evening a bit after 6 pm (as is often the case). I wonder if there's anything the city can do about this; "patrolling the area" is definitely not working. thanks!
Hello- There were multiple cars blocking the bike lane on Washington between 4th and 3rd Sts this evening a bit after 6 pm, as there often is. When there are 3-4 cars parked in the bike lane on this block, it really does cease to be a bike lane and is fully just a pick up/drop off lane for ride share drivers and pick up for davinci. I wonder if there's anything the city can do about this? If anyone in the chain would care to hear, I have a simple solution that would 100% guarantee the bike lane would not/could not be blocked by cars. thanks again!
Hello- There are often cars blocking the bike lane on west bound 4th St between College and Walnut. This was never an issue before becasue there was no bike lane here. The most obvious solution would have been to not put a bike lane here, or to have made it protected, but since a line has been painted notating a "bike lane" I wonder if there's anything the city can do to keep cars from blocking it. thanks!
Hello-There are regularly cars blocking the bike lane on Washington between 4th and 3rd St's a bit after 6pm.I wonder if there's a way for the city to make it clear to ride share drivers and customers of DaVinci that this is illegal and that they cannot block the bike lane. When there are 3-4 cars parked in the bike lane here, it really is no longer a bike lane and instead is a pick up/drop off zone. "Sending people to patrol the area" is definitely not working. Thanks!
Blue, electric "Bird" bicycle #GTH2C has been parked out front of the Grab-n-go for weeks, on north side of 12th Street close to intersection with Indiana Avenue.
The all way stop put in at Smith and 45 will likely cause confusion and/or problems between cars and bikes. There is a very big shoulder there and as a cyclist I have always ridden on the shoulder through this intersection. Westbound on a bike you come to this intersection at relatively high speed and if you have taken the should there's really no need to wait behind cars. I believe that is where the potential for confusion will be. If, say, there are 5 cars at the stop sign, should bikes not use the shoulder and wait in line with cars? Should they use the shoulder, but wait with cars? Should they blow by the line of cars? Should they slow, but still roll past the line of cars? While I am generally against "pained bike lanes" I think some sort of signage/lane could make sense here.

There have been several obstructions in the "walking area" near the road all winter, which is already made smaller by an overgrown honeysuckle bush that pushes pedestrians into the road on Matlock just over a blind hill with limited space for two cars. The honeysuckle bush is directly in the path, and just before it are a bunch of wire planter cages also blocking the path and creating a dangerous impediment to walking. I once tried to just pick them up and move them, but they seem to be held to the ground. They have been smashed down, but are now creating a slippery surface (even without the ice now covering them). They cover a small hill leading into the honeysuckle tree, and I recently fell trying to cross them, which put me dangerously close to passing cars. While the space across the street is actually better for passing, it is generally unpassable, as it does not get mown, and is allowed to grow up tall with weeds the majority of the year. I added a photo--very difficult to see the wire cages, so I have circled them in the photo. They are also difficult to see in real life, which makes them more hazardous. I think these items belong to the house inside the fence, rather than the log cabin, just fyi.
There are large and hazardous amounts of debris in the bicycle lane on N. College Ave. from Old State Route 37 to 11th Street.
