    Dix Park Raleigh, North Carolina - Southwest
    There is a group of port-a-potties along the road behind the big field at Dix. One of them has fallen or been knocked over and it is profoundly unpleasant to smell. I noticed it from near the STEM High school building across Blair Drive (approx .25 mile). No idea who is responsible for these, but perhaps the city does
  • Hunt Drive Raleigh, North Carolina - Hillsborough
    The pedestrian walk light keeps turning even when no one is pushing it. usually it is a shorter light across Western at Hunt when the light changes in response to cars alone
  • 610 South Boylan Avenue Raleigh, North Carolina - Central
    The pedestrian cross signal on the northwest corner of Boylan and W. South St. may have been knocked by a truck and is no longer visible from the east side of South St.
  • Boylan Heights Raleigh, North Carolina - Central
    Boylan Heights needs some public garbage receptacles. In addition to helping with general trash and litter removal, many people do not want dog waste bags put into their personal trash cans since they are not always upended by the solid waste services. But as a dog owner who does pick up after my dog, it would likely improve compliance with pet waste ordinances and all other trash in the neighborhood if there were easily accessible garbage cans for the public to use.
  • Hunt Drive Raleigh, North Carolina - Hillsborough
    yesterday and today the light at Western and Hunt Drive does not give a pedestrian signal. It is a wide street to cross and it is very necessary that this work for a person to get across safely. Without the pedestrian signal the light is often very short.
  • Western Boulevard Raleigh, North Carolina - Central
    The intersection of Western Blvd and Boylan Ave remains a problem. In the last three days I have nearly been hit by a car that did not recognize the red light as relevant to their desire to turn left from Western onto Boylan and seen three other cars turning onto Western from Boylan run the red light for pedestrian crossing. Cars do not know where to stop (for westbound traffic on Western some go through the intersection and stop by the walkway others stop before the intersection, eastbound cars on Western turning left onto Boylan do not always stop before the crosswalk but seek to turn while the cars are stopped on Western). All of this is very hazardous for pedestrians and motorists. Is there some kind of signage to alert those turning onto Western from Boylan that they should be alert to the possibility of a red light at the crosswalk? Should the crosswalk be moved? Is there a sign to inform turning traffic from Western onto Boylan about where to stop or can an additional light be placed over the turn lane? I don't know the best solution, but this is an ongoing problem.
  • Western Boulevard Raleigh, North Carolina - Downtown Raleigh
    The bushes in the median between Dorothea Dix and Boylan Heights neighborhood need trimming. It is difficult for pedestrians and eastbound cars crossing at the light to see one another. Since many cars turning left onto Boylan do not seem to think the red light is for them this situation could be made less dangerous if the line of sight were improved.
  • Western Boulevard Raleigh, North Carolina - Southwest
    Many, many times I have witnessed cars coming from Boylan Avenue drive the wrong way down Western Blvd in order to turn left, which is currently not possible to do in either direction without this insanely dangerous maneuver. Crossing the street as a pedestrian is also hazardous as many cars do not stop even when the light has changed. I and my neighbors have nearly been hit many times by cars who do not stop. There should be a light triggered by cars or by a pedestrian walk request as there is at Western and Hunt by the prison.
