Our field technician has investigated and verified that a detection device for this traffic signal is damaged. This traffic signal will be placed in a recall setting to service all damaged phases until this device can be repaired or replaced. We will continue to monitor this intersection for efficiency and to minimize delay as much as possible while on these settings.

349 Tryon Road Raleigh, NC - Southwest

The Burger King on Tryon Road, in order to keep their drive thru times down, directs people to violate the law and park in the handicapped spots. This means that the spots are always full and handicapped people cannot use the spaces the law reserves for them. This has gone on forever and BK ignores complaints. They are violating civil rights and discrimination laws. Can someone please enforce the law?

Between Fairway Drive and The Villages of Tryon Neighborhood are horrible potholes. They were temporarily fixed about a year ago when many had flat tires from it, but they are back and should be worse before too long. Makes for a horrible ride to work in the morning!

Intersection Of Avent Ferrry And Western Boulevard Raleigh, NC - Southwest

Avent Ferry gets bottled up with traffic going north in the mornings. Suggestion for helping traffic flow would be to change to one left turning lane on to Western, next lane be the lane that crosses Western into NCSU campus, Morrill Drive then the other two lanes be right turning lanes only onto Western Blvd going east.

The Public Works staff review the situation and provided the following response.

Channelization patterns at signalized intersections are generally based on current or predicted traffic volumes. The intersection of Western Blvd and Avent Ferry Road does carry a lot of traffic, especially during peak traffic hours. Current traffic volumes indicate that the current channelization pattern is correct based on the northbound left turning traffic is higher than the northbound right turning traffic. Also, the right turning traffic is allowed to go when the left turning traffic off of Western is going, allowing them more time to exit off of Avent Ferry. Current traffic counts show an increase of 5 percent to 25 percent of left turns versus right turns depending on the time of day. Thanks again for sharing your concerns with us.

Our field technician located a bad detection device and has placed certain phases on recall. This causes the signal to cycle for a short time even when there is no traffic. This should be fixed soon and will be placed back into normal operation at that time.

3310 Olympia Dr Raleigh, NC 27603, USA - Southwest

This issue got deleted evidently.

Whats the update on the 1/2 street wide pothole that is now about 5-6in DEEP!

I know the city is trying to put this off on the NEW property owners that are there like the ABC store and the BP that the hole is in between but this issue has been here for a long time and needs to be fixed before it causes a major accident and someone gets hurt.

Having the ABC store and BP pay to have it fixed will result in them taking forever to do so as they are as in the dark on the issue as anyone else after speaking with both personally.

Because this street was never completed to standard and offered for maintenance to the City, it is the property owners' responsibility to do this and it is not fair to expect the citizens of the rest of the City to pay for this. We have sent a letter to the property owners making note of the situation. Because several of the owners are national corporations we are not confident of a speedy solution. To the extent the local franchisees push back on their corporate property owners it may facilitate some kind of solution. The backup plan is to ask the City Council to approve a construction project to bring the street up to standard and assess the abutting property owners 100% of the cost, but even this has a cost to taxpayers at large because our assessment rules allow property owners up to 10 years to pay off the assessment, with the rest of the citizens of the City holding the bag in the interim. I will try to get an update as to when to expect that we would act to do an assessment project.

An update...The City Council voted to wait 1 month to see if we get any responses from the letter. Then their intent is to authorize a hearing on a City project with 100% assessment.

Seems that they have somewhat fixed the pothole but it is no where near up to city code or what one would think it would take for it to be up to code in order for the city to be able to take the street over.

The Council took the following action today. This should ultimately solve the problem. I cannot predict right now when the project will commence but it will likely take place during the summer construction season:

The Raleigh City Council voted unanimously today to move forward with a City-initiated project to make improvements to Olympia Drive.

Located in Renaissance Park in south Raleigh, Olympia Drive has deteriorated and is in need of repair. The City had hoped the six property owners on Olympia Drive would assume the costs of the improvements in a petition effort. The City sent letters to the property owners about the petition proposal but only two responded, with one owner indicating they do not support the project.

The City is proposing that 100 percent of the construction cost for the improvements be assessed to the abutting property owners. The assessments would range from $3,180 to $10,303. In addition, the City would pay the approximately $15,200 cost of the improvements adjacent to the Wilmington Street right-of-way. The total cost of the project is approximately $50,100, with the six property owners paying approximately $34,900 and the City approximately $15,200.

The City Council will schedule a public hearing on the proposed assessments for the Olympia Drive improvements.
