Coatesville

Why do they not fix the 30 bypass entrance ramp going east from 82? It needs to be longer! And there is room for it. Traffic can not see on coming cars –with all the new building in West Coatesville more people are using this entrance! They fixed the Bypass in Downingtown and Exton? Why did they leave out C-ville? Also, lights would be helpful too on RT 82, it is crazy in the morning and afternoon in all directions. Now they are building more right there. Something needs to be changed to direct traffic better ASAP!

This redlight is a complete waste of time and energy (literally on both fronts). It is a "T" intersection. The VAST perponderance of traffic flows N-S on 1st Avenue, and a simple stop sign for traffic on Walnut would suffice to safely manage traffic at this intersection and allow for smoother flow/less backups in the morning and evening as commuters cross Coatesville to and from E. Fallowfiled development and the 30 Bypass.

Currently in the City of Coatesville we have a recycling ordinance:

Yet this a number of photos taken this past week of the City's Trash hauler throwing cardboard into the trash which clearly is a violation of both the ordinance and the contract with the Hauler

Not sure if this is where I would put this. And I m sorry to be a pain again. But I have noticed that almost all the little signs (example no parking signs) have faded to nothing. My husband has now got 2 parking tickets on 2 different streets cause it was no parking on a certain day but there is NO signs that state it. The only signs around have faded to nothing. You cant read them at all. We are new to coatesville so we dont know this stuff by heart. I am at home durning the day I would be more then willing to help repaint the signs

signs on front lawn advertising a bussiness not even in coatesville !!!!
