Cyclists: Can you help the City fix bad road spots? (CYCM ‘08 Citizen Post)
Here’s a blog post from City Council Member Joan Lowenstein asking for help making the roads safer for cyclists:
Riding Ann Arbor’s streets on a bicycle, you certainly see where some of the problem areas are with our streets. This has been a particularly hard winter and the city council has actually had to appropriate more money for fixing potholes and other road problems. I am going to try to have the city set up a place on the website where cyclists can post pieces about areas that they find very troublesome. For example, I had to ride down to S. State Street yesterday and there’s a really bad spot under the bridge, just north of Stimson. Would others be willing to be “eyes and ears” for our under-staffed city road crews?
