Pothole Archived

Hillsborough St. - Wade

This 2-3 block stretch of Hillsborough St. has horrible road conditions in the east bound lane. Cars are constantly swerving and braking to avoid large cracks, dips, and holes. There are a lot of bikers in the area and it's not safe for two-wheeled vehicles.

The City of Raleigh's Public Works Department located the pothole and the work should be complete. If it is not, please let us know.

Thank you.

I have logged in the issue at our pothole hotline email inbox (pothole@raleighnc.gov). When I hear back from them I will update this issue.

This one very well may be NCDOT responsibility but I will update when I find out for certain.

dangerous bike lanes Archived

2422 Hillsborough St Raleigh, NC 27607, USA - Wade

the bike lanes on Hillsborough are seriously dangerous for bikers. They are too narrow and are in the path of parked cars and their doors. If someone opened a door into the lane the biker has to go back into traffic, often without warning. Why no sharrows?

These lanes were debated thoroughly by the City Council before implementation. They were recommended by the Bicycle-Pedestrian Task Force. I will ask our Bike Coordinator if she has further comment and will post it here when she responds.

I agree that the one thing everybody forgot about on the Hillsborough St project was a place for all the bike riders. I cringe when I drive next to a bike rider. It scares me to drive on the street with a bicyclist, I would be terrified to ride a bike on Hillsborugh St, and there are so many of them. The city sure dropped the ball on that one.

Recent press release:
August 16, 2011
Public Comment Period Open For Hillsborough Street Bike Lanes

The City of Raleigh is seeking public feedback regarding the bicycle lanes that were recently installed along Hillsborough Street between Gardner Street and Enterprise Street. The City will receive public comments until Oct. 7.

The Hillsborough Street Streetscape Project – Phase I was developed to fit within the existing right-of-way with the goal of improving conditions for all users. The City’s Comprehensive Bicycle Plan recommends the installation of shared-lane markings, or “sharrows,” to direct both motorists and cyclists to share the travel lane along Hillsborough Street.

In 2010, local cyclists organized a campaign to petition the City to install striped bicycle lanes instead of sharrows to provide a designated space for cyclists on Hillsborough Street. The Raleigh City Council endorsed this position and made a request to the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) to allow the City to install bicycle lanes on the street. NCDOT approved the request as a pilot project on a temporary basis, with an observation period of two to six months.

Citizens are being asked to submit comments to help the City and NCDOT determine the safety and effectiveness of these bicycle lanes. The comment period will be open until 5 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 7. Comments can be sent via e-mail to RaleighBPAC@raleighnc.gov or by mail to the City of Raleigh Office of Transportation Planning, PO Box 590, Raleigh, NC 27602.

Dangerous Pothole for Bicycles Archived

3300-3324 Hillsborough St Raleigh, NC 27607, USA - Wade

Westbound curb lane in bicycle travel way. Poor utility patch (no sub base) for years since adjacent building constructed. Given traffic counts and axle loads, this needs a proper reconstruction of road bed and then top wear layer. 2" asphalt over dirt isn't getting it done. (Not as serious, but just a bit uphill is a water valve collar that is also starting to get squirmy; a repair now will save bigger trouble later.)

We'll notify the District Engineer but you can always follow up with them directly by calling (919) 733-3213. NCDOT has a resurfacing project from Gardner Street to the Beltline that will start up in the next few months. We will pass this on to them to make sure they are aware as their contractor begins this work.

Abandoned bike frame locked to Bike Rack Archived

In front of Sir Speedy there is a bike frame locked onto the Bike Rack, which has been abandoned. We do not have the tools to cut the lock and dispose of the bike. It has been there for 8 days.

Officer Alexander will address this between his other assignments. We should have it done by early next week if not earlier.
