1. Obsolete "yield to pedestrians" flexstake signs insead of "stop for pedestians"

     }

1. Railroad tracks (unused for decades) across sidewalk make it difficult for wheelchairs and other lower-mobility users.
2. Bike lane on Preston ends here
3. Long distance from stop bar to turn
4. Degraded pavement markings

1. Crosswalk and stop bar markings are significantly degraded.
2. Crosswalk markings should be upgraded to continental style markings.

           }
}

1. Pavement Markings degraded.
2. 2 legs use standard markings rather than continental style
3. Part of one standard marking is gone due to curb cut.
4. Signal cycle is very long, leading to long wait times for pedestrians. This is especially apparent on Saturday mornings.
5. Signal time for crossing Monticello is inadequate for the length, making this dangerous for slower walker, particularly relevant to its proximity to Crescent Halls.

Primary corridor connecting Ix Park to Downtown Mall. Public housing (Crescent Halls and Friendship Court) on diagonal parcels.

           }
     }

Issues:

1. Only 3 of 4 legs are marked. Missing leg is adjacent to a bus stop
2. Flexstakes signs incorrectly state that drivers must yield to pedestrians instead of stopping for pedestrians.
3. Crosswalk paint is no longer bright.

1. Stone blocks are more difficult to walk and roll over, but offer no contrast to asphalt pavement to speed design drivers to slow down.
2. No clear crosswalk markings, as all blocks are similar color.

1. Degraded pavement marking of crosswalk

1. Part of crosswalk removed during street cut
2. Marking across Garrett is nearly completely gone, and was an inadequate "Transverse Lines" style
3. Only 2 of 3 possible crosswalk paths were marked to begin with.
4. Anti-slip mat on south crosswalk is detached.

1. Degraded pavement markings
2. wide lane coming down hill from Avon encourages drivers to speed
3. crosswalk has no speed design affordances

           }
     }

1. Crosswalk markings are significantly degraded. "Standard" style markings across Garrett are nearly invisible, and a large portion of one of them is gone from a street cut. "Contenental" style markings are highly worn.
2. There is significant loose aggregate in the roadway from adjacent construction.

1. Bike box obliterated by street cut.

1. Only 2 legs of a 3-way signalized crosswalk are marked.
2. Pavement markings on those 2 legs are degraded
3. The only Leading Pedestrian Interval signal in the City, but not automatic walk, even though there's constant traffic between the DTM and Water Street parking garage.
