  • 7301-7315 Hohman Ave Hammond, IN, 46324, USA - Hammond
    Despite the numerous signs saying "Bikes Only" leading up to the intersection, there is an endless stream of cars driving in the bike lane to turn right onto 173rd St while heading north on Hohman Ave. I do see some angry drivers yelling at cyclists in the bike lane occasionally, but the biggest problem is posed to drivers obeying the signage. I am nearly hit every time I try to turn right onto 173rd St from the actual traffic lane because there is always someone speeding to the corner in the bike lane heading directly at my side. I understand that this cannot be a protected bike lane that prevents cars from entering because it would block off driveways to the people living on Hohman, but perhaps something like the plastic poles similar to those along River Dr/ 177th St that protect the bike path from cyclists could be uses here just before the intersection where it would not block driveways, but would hopefully deter cars from driving through the bike lane.

  • Parking Violation Acknowledged
    7750 Old Columbia Ave Hammond, IN, 46324, USA - Hammond

    RV been parking out in the open for years. Reported here litterally for 3-4 years and nothing happens. It never moves it seems.

    Who do they know ? Guy 2 doors down got reported for boats in front and got talked to right way this year. Is parking limit 96 hours or 96 weeks in this case ? Seriously. You don't even investigate. Simple drive by you'd see it.

    "DESCRIPTION
    To Whom It May Concern,

    I am writing to express my utmost concern and disappointment regarding the abuse of elders living near the train crossings in Robertsdale . Specifically, I am referring to the incessant honking of trains at all hours of the night, which is causing severe discomfort and health problems for our elderly population.

    As we all know, elders require adequate sleep to maintain their health and wellbeing. However, the constant honking of trains is depriving them of this basic necessity. They are forced to endure the loud blasts of the horn, which disrupts their sleep patterns and causes immense stress and anxiety.

    The consequences of this abuse are severe. Lack of sleep can lead to serious health problems in elders, including high blood pressure, heart disease, and depression. Moreover, it can worsen existing health conditions and impair cognitive function, making it difficult for them to carry out daily activities.

    It is unacceptable that our elders have to suffer in this way. It is high time that we take action to address this issue and ensure that our community is a safe and healthy place for all. We urge the authorities to take immediate measures to reduce the noise pollution caused by train honking, particularly during the night.

    We cannot continue to ignore the needs of our elders. It is our responsibility to provide them with a safe and comfortable environment where they can live with dignity and receive the care and support they require."

    As a resident that lives across the street from this care facility I wanted to make sure that this has not lost momentum. The train horns at all hours of the night has increased exponentially since the railroad added new tracks a few years ago. If a NO HORN zone cannot be made for the residents of this care facility, then there needs to be a time restriction for train horns. We need the City of Hammond to help these elderly residents not to mention the rest of the tax paying residents who also have to put up with these horns.

    We're seeing more and more coyotes in the park and on our property, and they're getting more and more bold. I take my dog for a walk and these coyotes aren't running away. There's at least three of them, traveling in a pack. I'm worried about other people who have small dogs if these coyotes become aggressive.
