Issues: homeless

One issue of concern that is puzzling is all last week Hwy 73 at Cowans Ford @#$% was partially shut down according to your morning news for resurfacing. Needlesee to say I got caught in the mess several times out of necessity. I am not blaming what was put on the air but some one should ride thru there... All they did all that time was creat two or three huge bumps in the road and made the rairoad crosssing even worse that it was..Nothing was resurfaced as you folks had to report.
The second issue Is the old part of Hwy 16 from about the Triangle area up thru the light at Westport. We have been promised but all kinds of officials over the past sevral years this stretch of road would be re[aved and evened back up. Its terribly uneven from turn lane additions new drives etc. and of course the holes that have been fixed are terrible. Driving over it in the day is bad enough but night in the rain is bad... You bounce and twist around to the point you thingk you are drnk or drugged.
Please look into these issues for the residents of Lincoln County as for some reason we can not seem to get anything done...
Sincerely;
Gary Caldwell

This road has not been resurfaced in 30 years.

The potholes after the high school have been repaired and are great! Thank you.
The potholes prior to the high school have not been fixed. They are still extremely bumpy and cause cars to go around them into the oncoming lane. Bad during high school rush hour.
Between the sand pit and Silver Creek Materials there are a couple of curves that are very rough and cause people to swerve around them on blindly. Not safe. One curve has a whole bunch of ripples from potholes being filled that needs to be fixed. One corner with a large dip by the right shoulder also.
One of the bridges (by the sand pit) is accumulating a lot of sand from the gas well trucks. Putting a lot of extra weight onto the bridge. Is it safe?
Are you kidding me? Nothing has changed since I typed the above message. I am going to take pictures and post them and call the city also.

The entire intersection including the southbound left turn lane onto Doris is completely eroded and rough and bumpy. Needs resurfacing.

Major potholes and cracks with major bumps in both lanes. Please FIX!

utility workers cut a perfect hole and then back fill with hot patch with no pride, lumps and bumps and all over the place,thousands of drivers have to navigate your mess every day,it's almost undriveable

I hope that some stimulus money will be used not just to fix Rt. 1 and Rt. 206 south of Princeton (as has already occurred), but will be used to fix 206 North of Princeton all the way through Montgomery Township. This portion of 206 badly needs repaving, as it is badly cracked, bumpy, and filled with potholes.

The entire road needs repaved!!! Potholes that will destroy your car!! Muffler replaced twice last year due to bumps; even if you go slow - the constant rocking does damage!

Well the city in their infinite wisdom decided to redo the sidewalks on alot of Farwell Street but failed to smooth out the bump that's been in the right lane in front of the Park Tower Apts for quite some time.

Lots of bumps and potholes along Green St. from Madison Ave. to Hudson (in front of the bus station). I hate driving over this, the buses must make it worse. I want this fixed !

May not matter a whole lot to every vehicle, but I feel it in my 2-door and all my bikes.

Large pothole next to bump right at end of Quay St where people turn to eventually get to 787.

I ride the bus many days of the week. I have no complains about the bus except one: the intersection of Park and Drachman. This section is very uncomfortable and bumpy. Many elderly and young people ride the bus. It is unfair to put them through the intense shaking that occurs at the bus traverses this route.

10/22/11 WINTER IS COMING, THESE FOLKS AT THE PACFIC AVE. END OF ARCTIC AVE., IN THE PAMPAS GRASS, NEED A SAFE, WARM AND DRY PLACE TO STAY.

was milled over 3 years ago and never finished. there are potholes and large bumps, on both the on ramp, and the west-bound off ramp. roads are so rough that drivers have been using the shoulder for 2 (TWO) YEARS!

This intersection has always caused a huge backup of traffic in all directions during rushour in the morning and evening every day. I believe the intersection would be a good candidate for a roundabout to be implemented. When commuting to work in the morning from Curry Rd Ext, traffic is bumper to bumper almost all the way to the intersection of Kings Rd @ Curry Rd Ext.

The Pete's Pet/Homeless shelter is spilling these vagrants into our neighboorhood where they are persistantly soliciting our families, friends, children. Are these people being run through police data base to check if they are reg. sex offenders/pedophiles?

The little bridge on southbound Fort St. just before Goddard Rd. is in need of desporate repair. It doesn't mater which lane your in you will hit a pothole.

Bushes planted on the corner of (east corner) E. Bayberry and Heatherstone Dr. hinder drivers the ability to safely make a turn. You cannot see around the line of trees or the shrubberies. This is an accident waiting to happen, as there is also no speed bumps to slow the traffic coming down the hill.

Glenwood St. is 2 blocks long. The 2nd block is one-way(out) and right along side of School 19. It is a "speedway"; no matter what time of day or night!! I feel the only way to solved this MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE is to put in speed-bumps like they did in the Town of Colonie, on Delatour and the next street over (can't think of the name). The residents of the block have complained and complained to the police.......and NOTHING has been done. Are they waiting until there is a major accident causing a fatality to do something?
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure......

There are numerous potholes here and they have been here for at least 3 months. From 25th/Indiana to 25th/Ohio is a 2 block stretch. Very bumpy road. Probably the worst in the city. Should be resurfaced very soon!

Hwy 41A near the Bedford County/Moore Countly line is in terrible shape. Construction down the road has created potholes that have been patched over and over, making it very rough. TDOT says 2~3 years for repair. TDOT should be ashamed to make people drive on this road for 2~3 years. You have to drive on the yellow center line or the white shoulder line to avoid the bumps.

A homeless camp has cropped up in the alley behind a few vacant lots in the area, south side of the road. It is visible from 54th Ave. and seems to be growing by the day.

Homeless people have set up large tents/residences in the small square across from the Red Cross building.

(Yes, there are homeless people who sleep in that square, but usually vacate during the day. This has grown into a full blown residence complete with tarps, luggage, and laundry.)

Route 85 between the Albany/Bethlehem line and Interstate 90 is in very bad condition, and has been for a number of years, with large holes, cracks, and jaw jarring bumbs. This section of four lane highway is, by far, the worst highway in the capital region. What is difficult to understand is the State just recently paved a section of Route 85 in Bethlehem, which was just paved a few years ago. Are there any plans to repair this section of highway in the near future?

The road is horrible to drive over, there are so many dips and bumps and needs to be fixed. Its a nice drive to get into downtown Orono, but the beginning of the road always scares me to drive over.

The railroad crossing is very bumpy. It seems worse this year. Please take a look at it.
