    300 W. Clay St Richmond, Virginia - Jackson Ward

    Abner Clay Park, a city park with a playground, is located at Clay and Brook Rd, a complex interaction with a Four-Way stop sign. Blooming Child Petite Academy, a daycare facility, is located at 300 W. Clay St. Because of these two facilities, there are often small children near the street, crossing Brook Rd., and playing in the park. Twice last week, I was almost hit with my 20 month old son crossing Clay or Brook by cars driving above the speed limit or driving through one of the stop signs without coming to a complete stop. Please consider adding a "Children Playing" sign to alert drivers to the presence of the city park and daycare center.

    Boulevard Road Richmond va - Rosedale

    Getting off of i-95 south onto Boulevard is not a fun experience.

    This exit ramp has several major sections that appear to have lost many inches of pavement.

    It is an extremely rough section of road that is traveled by many every day. I know my car is no happy with this section of road and you have to be ready for it or it will send you skipping across the lane!!!

    1700 Monument Ave Richmond, VA 23220, USA - The Fan

    Larger signs are needed to make traffic yield at the monument. Cars travel too fast down Monument Ave at this intersection. Two pedestrians were hit and injured yesterday while trying to cross the street. A crossing guard is needed for Orchard House School on Allen Ave.

    tree removal Archived
    1802 Elmsmere Avenue richmond, VA - Rosedale

    I'd like the tree that is on City property in front of my house removed, please. It is leaning towards my house, and its branches are in the power lines. Tree is currently alive but am worried it might not survive another big storm without hitting my house. Thanks.

    515 W Franklin St Richmond, VA - Monroe Ward

    As you can see from this Google Street View photo:

    http://i.minus.com/jDFuiuOVHasba.jpg

    There used to be a 'NO PARKING FROM HERE UNTIL CORNER' sign next to that tree on W. Franklin St -- the point of this was to prevent people turning onto W Franklin from N Henry (or crossing W Franklin) from having to make a blind turn.

    A few months ago, the 'NO PARKING FROM HERE UNTIL CORNER' sign was removed. Even before then, some people would still park at that corner.

    Whenever there are cars parked there (two of them will fit), it forces anyone on N Henry to blindly make that turn or cross the street. Because of the layout of the parking garage, EVERY TENANT of Park Plaza at Belvidere is forced to make that blind turn if people are parked there.

    It's extremely unsafe, and the 'NO PARKING FROM HERE UNTIL CORNER' sign should be put back and strictly enforced. 2 extra parking spaces isn't worth a traffic hazard.

    3000 Westwood Ave Richmond, VA 23227 - Sherwood Park

    All lights are out in the underpass where 64 goes over Westwood Avenue (RICHMOND, 23227). This is a
    graffiti-prone area.

  • Traffic
    2900 Monument Avenue Richmond, VA - The Museum District

    On Sunday mornings, churchgoers are permitted to park along the Monument Avenue median on the immediate blocks east and west of the Boulevard. When Monument Ave was repaved 18-24 months ago, the block between Boulevard and Sheppard St. was incorrectly re-striped. Though the street is wide enough to accommodate cars parked along interior and exterior medians as well as all four lanes of traffic, the pavement markings were incorrectly replaced. The problem is that when cars are parked on Sunday mornings, two lanes are forced to merge into one as they approach the Boulevard. I have seen several near-fender benders as a result. The lanes simply need to be re-striped to what they originally were before the recent re-surfacing took place.

    There is a tree stump on W. Cary Street behind the VCU Brand Center that was left from Hurricane Irene. It needs to be removed from the ground.

    Alley needs gravel Acknowledged
    2201 Hanover Ave Richmond, VA 23220, USA - The Fan

    Alley behind houses 2201-2209 on Hanover avenue is in desperate need of gravel. Alley turns into mud pit when it rains. I am scared to drive my car to park behind house as it may get stuck.
