  • Shepherds Ln Ne Atlanta, Georgia - North Druid Hills
    Shepherds Ln NE has many speed bumps since it is sort of a short cut through a residential area, but seeing them is difficult. The neighborhood has poor lighting and the speed bumps markings are worn out and there are no signs warning you of the many speed bumps on this street. I have called this to the attention of DeKalb County, but like most everything else you bring to their attention, nothing seems to get done. They could reflective-paint the speed bumps in one day and the problem will be easily solved. How about it?
  • Clifton Road Decatur, Georgia - Druid Hills
    There is always a backup on Clifton Road between Briarcliff Rd and North Decatur Rd due to the poor coordination of the traffic lights. You wait for the green traffic light on one street, only to go one block to meet another red traffic light. It doesn't matter what time of the day either. If the traffic lights were coordinated it would make the traffic flow much better. And for those concerned about pollution or global warming, the air quality would greatly improve along with the traffic flow. I hope someone looks into this ASAP and does something to fix the problem because it sure needs it!
  • Clifton Road Decatur, Georgia - Druid Hills
    Clifton Road, from Briarcliff Rd to North Decatur Rd, is so in need of repair and repaving, and has been for many years. It is dangerous to drive on, especially with all the traffic for Emory University, CDC, and many hospitals. Why has Clifton Road been ignored when the need for repair has been so evident?
  • Chamblee-Dunwoody Road Chamblee, Georgia - Chamblee
    Chamblee-Dunwoody Road, from I-285 to Peachtree Industrial Blvd is so full of pot holes, cracked pavement and other problems that it is unsafe to drive on this road, which is one of the busiest in Chamblee. I called Chamblee Public Works and they said this is a DeKalb County Road and their responsibility that Chamblee has been trying for over a year for the County to get it fixed. This seems to reflect why many areas of DeKalb County have become their own cities and have made sure that their roads are well-maintained on the North side of the County that has been given little attention by DeKalb. The City of Brookhaven has been paving many streets that DeKalb ignored when it was part of the County. Brookhaven had the same problems that the City of Chamblee is having. My call to Chamblee today informed me that only some potholes would be fixed, but the needed repair and resurfacing was not being done and no one knew when it would be. Why are we paying taxes to DeKalb County for?
