Thank you for reporting this - it is very hazardous in this location! I nearly had a collision with another vehicle yesterday, due the way this trailer is positioned near an intersection at the top of a nearly-blind crest of a hill on Audubon.
Day 2 - no action taken by the city of Raleigh. This work trailer parked illegally on a city street presents a clear and present danger to the people who drive on this street.
@Nathan - my next move is to email our city councilperson for District A, Dickie Thompson and let him know that as a taxpayer how dissatisfied I am with the lack of responsiveness from the city of Raleigh on this and several other open tickets that have languished for weeks on end - without a single response from the city of Raleigh.

Councilman Thompson,
I wanted to bring to your attention the lack of responsiveness on the part of city of Raleigh personnel on issues raised on the SeeClickFix website. I've had issues languish for weeks without even being 'acknowledged' by city personnel - example: https://seeclickfix.com/issues/3667056 I have recently opened another ticket which presents a clear an present danger to the citizens of the city of Raleigh, no response after 1 week: https://seeclickfix.com/issues/3793266
As a taxpayer, I am not happy with the poor customer service - we (the people) are collectively their boss (and as a voter - yours as well). Please address this issue with the proper city of Raleigh management at your earliest possible convenience.
Thank you for your help and attention to this matter.

subject: Trailer Illegally Parked in Street (photo attached)
I am writing to report a utility trailer that is illegally parked in the street, near the corner of Audubon Drive and Ravenhurst Drive, in the North Ridge area of Raleigh.
The location of this trailer creates a hazard for vehicles using this intersection, and is really quite dangerous at night, when it is barely visible.
This has been reported using the SeeClickFix system, but the issue has not been addressed by the City of Raleigh after 13 DAYS and counting.
PLEASE ticket and tag this trailer as illegally parked (with an orange sticker) and help remove this obstruction.
Many thanks for all you do for Raleigh's citizens!
We apologize for the delay in responding. This was sent to RPD. We will update you with their findings as soon as possible. You can also report suspicious or abandoned vehicles to RPD by phone 24/7 at 919-831-6311.
City of Raleigh personnel: thank you for responding to my request. I will continue to post every day the trailer is still there to keep you informed if the problem is persisting. And yes, it's day 15 - and the trailer is still there.

Why is there no resolution to this problem?? This is a hazard, and really quite dangerous at night, when it is barely visible.
It seems like City of Raleigh is ignoring the SeeClickFix system - no acknowledgement after 8 DAYS - a real shame!
PLEASE get this trailer moved!
