Faded street markings indicating No Parking Open

3409 Cresson Street Philadelphia, PA - East Falls

3409-3413 Cresson Street has a private parking lot. This is a VERY narrow street and there is no parking on either side of the driveway. However the markings have faded away and there is no signage, so people consistently park too close to the driveway making exiting the lot nearly impossible. The neighbors have even had to have cars towed just to exit.

  I assume you are talking about Franklins, why don't they get out there with some paint and take care of it. One Way signs are also needed there so when people can exit the lot, they will know which way to go.

  No, this is by the corner of Cresson and Calumet. Right after you make the right after the bridge. There are apartments there and people always park too close to the driveway and then it's impossible to get around them because the street is so narrow. I blew out a tire once trying to make it around a car and curbed it on the stones from the opposing wall that overlooks the train.

  I know right where you are talking about, I live on the other side of the railroad from the apartments. I'm glad I now know the address for those apartments. What are they called? I'll bet is really hard to get out of the lot when all the trash cans and recycle buckets are piled by the curb. Good for you, having people towed! I'll bet they paid attention to that.
  
  Did you call 311 about the problem? If you do, be sure to write down the ticket number and follow up. It takes time but I have had several problems straightened out by a 311 operator.
  
  Good luck.

  The buildings don't have a specific name that I am aware of and I have lived here for 2 years. The trashcans usually aren't too bad in the morning because its an employee of the landlord that puts them out there so he's obviously aware of how difficult it can be to get around them, but once the trashmen have had their way with them then they are all over the street.
  
  Surprisingly the towing stops repeat offenders but not the problem itself.
  
  I am unfamiliar with 311. I'll look into that as an option. Thanks for the suggestion!

Do not turn on red violation Acknowledged

Falls Brg Philadelphia, PA - East Falls

Drivers routinely ignore "do not turn on red" sign and turn right onto the bridge with a red arrow light on jeopardizing pedestrians and bicyclists who are trying to cross the intersection at Kelly Drive and the bridge. Occasionally a police officer may be standing nearby and no driver is ever stopped for this traffic violation.

  see http://www.seeclickfix.com/issues/46648
  
  I pass this intersection 2x / day and most days I see drivers ignoring the red-light... and pedestrians who fail to press the button for the walk signal.
  
  It would be helpful if traffic engineering changed the signal for the right hand turn on the bridge so that a walk signal is presented without regard to a pedestrian or cyclist pressing the button. some drivers may expect to see a green signal and ignore the red when the walk is in effect.

  this is still a major concern. i contacted penndot at the number below and they said this is a city issue. they do not deal with enforcement on kelly drive nor will they look at the intersection design as this is also a city issue.
  
  i'm frankly tired of nearly being run over every day here. this has to stop.

overgrown weeds making sidewalk impassable Open

3650 West Schoolhouse Ln Philadelphia, PA - East Falls

The weeds are getting so long you can't walk on the sidewalk. Someone should cut these weeds. There is no sidewalk on the other side of the road so you have to walk in the street.

  The bottom of School House Lane is dangerous because of the blind curve and walking in the street is a dangerous option.
