  • North Tryon Street Between Eastway And University City Blvd Charlotte, NC - Hidden Valley
    More and more housing is going up in neighborhoods between Eastway Drive and University City Blvd (NC49) that feed onto N. Tryon (NC29/49). Pedestrians with a LONG walk to a traffic light, and cars turning left into streets with no lights are having to dart across traffic at all hours.
    How many fatalities and how many vehicle crashes does it take to make a change?

    The reflectors are still securely in place, and the road markings are brighter in both directions. There is still no sidewalk at dangerous points along this road and bridge, but that will take a rebuilding of the bridge.
    I am attempting to close this issue, but posting this additional comment in case I cannot.

    At night, heading toward Wilkinson Blvd. there's a slight jog in Morris Field Drive, past the intersection w Seymour Dr. where the road narrows to go across the bridge. There's a driveway to a private business, but between that driveway and the correct roadway, there's an embankment protected PARTIALLY by a barrier with reflectors. The barrier is not long. I am used to suddenly having to adjust course or go over the embankment, but I think visitors to CLT might be distracted. How about some reflectors with arrows along the edge of that embankment? Also, the center lane markings could be more prominent. Reflectors embedded in the center lane would be picked up at night.
