Eldridge Parkway going North between Westheimer and Memorial are multiple pot holes large enough to swallow a small car in a single gulp

Please please add some protection for pedestrians on the hike and bike trail on 11th. It's nearly impossible to cross.

Thank you to whoever it was that started this request! It is a very scary thing to watch bikers, pedestrians and families cross at this intersection and I am surprised that nothing has been done to remedy this already as it seems so dangerous.

I would like to add that the same is the case where the trail crosses Yale and Heights Blvd at 7th Street.

Yes please! So dangerous for our neighbors.

The Hike and Bike Trail that crosses 11th definitely needs traffic light protection. The crossing at Yale and Height Blvd are also dangerous. Something really needs to be done as there are so many more bikers and walkers/runners in the Heights these days.

We are avid bike riders in our family. I even helped get this hike and bike trail built. Now I bike ride with a 7 and 4 year old. I want super safe streets for them. Please help us be safe when riding bikes.

This is needed so badly! We use it multiple times a week. So many families use this trail and it is extremely difficult to cross. One time I was out with my kids in our double stroller on the trail and within 20 seconds of us crossing the street two cars collided right on 11th and Nicholson. One of the cars smashed into the light pole right next to the trail. We were so close to being hit by this car.

Another dangerous spot for this same trail is at 7th and Yale. It will be even more difficult to cross once the apartment complex is complete and occupied.

This is such a stressful crossing, especially with kids. Gaps in the traffic are infrequent and short.

A pedestrian crossing light is desperatly needed. This is a very busy street and crossing is difficult and dangerous.

This is great! It's encouraging to see people able to make our neighborhoods safer by creating awareness of problem areas that would otherwise go overlooked until a tragedy happens.

Especially with the increase in traffic, additional safety measures are needed on the hike and bike trail. If we're going to try to make Houston more walker friendly, then we need to do so in a safe environment. I live on this street and use this trail almost daily. It's become almost impossible to cross.

The Nicholson bike path where it crosses 11th street AS WELL as where the same path later crosses over Yale Street - both places are super dangerous.

This area is extremely dangerous. I know there's already been at least one fatality....and foot and vehicle traffic seems to increase weekly. This issue sorely needs attention.

It would be helpful to have a light at Nicholson bike path where it crosses 11th street and where the path on 7th crosses over Yale Street - could be set up where light only activated by someone on the path needing to cross.

Why install a hike/bike trail and not install safe crossing areas? I was stopped at the crosswalk on 11th, and actually had someone honk,pull around me, and speed past nearly mowing down a young family. please address this!!!

Still no response from the city? Who is the city council member for this area? Call their office

I have called and called and called. Their response is that it is a public safety (police department) issue. They say they are done with it because they have painted stripes on the crossing so that cars should yield. And they point out that there is a stop sign for people on the path to keep them from dashing into the street (??). So, since the police have not witnessed people trying to cross and cars not yielding to them then there is no problem. Here is their contact info: Ja'nae.Williams@houstontx.gov in councilmember's office: districtc@houstontx.gov

Who is the representative city council member for this location? Contact their office and make the case. I always thought folks in the Heights could get whatever they wanted through city council

Let's get this fixed Houston! A perdestrian light was put in at the trail where it meets Yale St. It works very well. If it was deemed necessary on Yale St, the same logic should apply on 11th. Please fix this.

Multiple year old requests for lights at this intersection. Wake up City officials!!

I am so afraid to cross here with my daughter in her stroller that I just turn around. There are so many children in this neighborhood & it's such a lively bike path that something really should be done. A pedestrian activated light would be a great option.

Still unresolved. Called 311 and requested that this be reopened, assigned new case #2477362.

Your request to Houston 311 has been accepted. Your service request ID is #174347.

Hello? City officials, are you really paying attention? What will it take to get this done? I hope you don't wait until one of our neighborhood children gets hit by a car before you take action! Get off your butts and handle this.

Seriously, what a joke. Cars FLY down this road (speed limit is 30 people!!) and extremely difficult to cross.
