  • Log Chain Rd Columbia, Maryland, 21045 - Columbia

    Submitted on behalf of a constituent by District 2, Ashley Alston, Communication and Community Engagement Specialist

    "Log Chain Rd runs perpendicular to Mellenbrook Rd where THES is. It is also where the Thunder Hill pool is. There is a 90 curve right near the pool that, along with the consistent parking between the curve and Thunder Hill, makes that a dangerous road. I am emailing to ask that a speed hump, or two, be put on Log Chain Rd between Mellenbrook and the curve. This will prevent drivers from speeding down that road like they currently do. My son and dogs were almost hit crossing the road at crosswalk. Many kids walk that way to school and to the pool in the summer. Mellenbrook is close to the 29N Diamondback Rd exit and many people take that exit to bail out from traffic in 29. Those people may not be aware of the surrounding area.

    There are several speed humps on Thunder Hill Rd, far from the school, I assume to keep people from speeding down that road. Log Chain Rd needs the same."

  • 9882-9942 Gorman Rd Laurel, MD, 20723, USA - North Laurel

    Need “do not pass” signage on this road section.

    The double yellow line does not deter drivers from passing cyclists and crossing the lane divider along this limited sight distance portion of road. I think it needs to be made very clear to drivers that passing IS NOT appropriate or safe along this section of road. I have personally witnessed two near misses, one involving a school bus. As a cyclist, I do not feel safe cycling here as I know drivers will pass when not safe

  • 5600-5606 Railroad Ave Elkridge, MD, 21075, USA - Elkridge
    Railroad Avenue is 1-way at this point, but a left turn onto it from south-bound Route 1 (e.g., for MD State Safety Inspections) is dangerous. It would be better to replace the 1-way flow with a 2-way and place "Do Not Enter" signs from Railroad onto Route 1, so that access to buildings on Railroad could be achieved via Main Street in old Elkridge.

    Song laying on guardrail.
  • 17201 Hardy Rd Mount Airy, MD, 21771, USA - Howard County
    A hill on Hardy Road causes a blind spot for cars, that sometimes causes walkers to dive into lawns. Ive seen cars speeding swerving and breaking to narrowly miss the foot traffic, and we have a lot of local foot traffic. With Halloween coming, putting a slight speed bump on top of that hill and sign up would also perhaps save a life or two. It seems prudent to put a mild type of speed bump on that spot permanently - AND a sign.
  • 10900 Pump House Rd Annapolis Junction, Maryland, 20701 - Howard County
    Pump House Rd and Guilford Rd Intersection - Dangerous Need Signage like Don't Block the Box - It is a daily occurrence from about 3PM to 5:30PM where the cars are flying up Guilford Rd. only to stop at the stoplight but they block exiting from Pump House Rd. We have seen fender benders but one day there will be a tragic accident because of the speed. Also I have seen drivers get frustrated that Guilford Rd drivers leave no room and tempers have flared. This is a powder keg and needs to be addressed. Thank you, Pump House Rd. residents
