Description

Poorly placed steel plates over utility excavation causes a bike wheel trap in the Spruce Street bike lane at 15th Street. Can the plates 1) be placed tight against one another 2) secured so that they are not moved out of place by turning cars and trucks

This morning (Wednesday July 5) the quick-and-dirty fix applied last week didn't work. Rather than move the plates together, someone shoved a 2x4 piece of wood and piled some cold patch (macadam) into the crack. Well, the macadam has fallen into the hole. So the bike wheel trap is still there.

Instead of moving the steel plates together to seal up the wheel trap, a 2x4 piece of lumber and some cold patch macadam were shoved into the hole. Today Wednesday July 6 the macadam has fallen into the excavation, so the wheel trap has opened up again.

The steel plates are gone and the utility trench has been paved over. Issue should be closed.
