Observation:
On 10/13/23, an investigation was conducted at 3200 Chenevert Street, regarding a requestor?s concern that ?a crosswalk was dangerous and better signage was needed?. This is a residential area located in a school zone for Houston Academy for International Studies (1810 Stuart Street). Chenevert runs northeast/southwest, has asphalt curbs, gutters, and sidewalks. It accommodates three lanes of traffic that travel northeast. Stuart intersects Chenevert, runs northwest/south, has asphalt curbs, gutters, and sidewalks. It accommodates two lanes of traffic that travel accordingly, controlled by stop signs. Elgin Street also intersects Chenevert, runs northwest/southeast, has asphalt curbs, gutters, and sidewalks. It accommodates five lanes of traffic that travel accordingly, controlled by electronic traffic devices. The investigation revealed that the crosswalk markings and stop bars were faded at the intersection of Stuart Street at Chenevert and Chenevert at Elgin. School Crossing signs were also faded at Chenevert and Stuart.

Recommendation:
A maintenance request will be submitted to the Paint Shop to repaint the crosswalk markings and stop bars at the intersection of Stuart Street at Chenevert and Chenevert at Elgin. A request will also be submitted to Sign Maintenance to replace the faded school crossing signs on Chenevert.

Can you also please include a left turn yield or move the existing one from the left signal light to the one in the middle and drivers coming off the freeway often fail to yield to anyone and anything.

The green circle shows where there is a yield sign but it is overshadowed by the left lane must turn left and green circle.

A better solution would be to install a blinking yellow instead of several green circles that people seem to forget is NOT a protected left turn.
