A traffic light would be useful between Harrison and Lexington because it is hard to get onto Lee Hwy - from gas stations, homes/TH, stores, eating places & a school.
|
Lee Highway & Harrison
|
Add left turn only light for westbound traffic

|
Pedestrian crossing needed
|
Lee Hwy/Harrison
|
Crosswalk improvements. This was in the process before 9/11. Funding then was cut.
|
Lee Hwy/Powhatan St (south side)
|
Close off access to Lee Hwy and make Powhatan St a court because cars drive too fast on Powhatan and pose a danger to small children. Then put a light at Quantico/Lee Hwy intersection
|
Lee- Illinois, Kensington, Lexington, Nottingham
|
Electronic speed signs would help. Also on Lee Highway, west after Lexington St
|

|
Madison St (especially 1st block off Lee Hwy)
|
Speed humps, 4-way stop at 23rd and/or traffic circle, 4-way stop at 22nd St and/or traffic circle (this is a bus stop area for elementary school kids. It is VERY dangerous!)
|
N Harrison & Lee Hwy
|
Improve intersection for walkers
|
N Illinois
|
Sidewalks completed
|
N Illinois between 22nd St and 23rd St
|
Sidewalk needed for the safety of children! There have been efforts to address this by our neighbors for a decade - this needs to be a high priority project
|
N Kensington/24th St
|
Cars speed up and down Kensington - 4-way stop needed
|
N. Harrison St and N. 26th St
|
Need a 4-way stop sign - dangerous for traffic. Many kids cross here after school. (I realize this is outside our area, but our kids walk here to W'burg and Yorktown.

|
Left turn arrow lights
|
N22nd St between Quantico & Powhatan

Speeding. Use speed bumps. People drive way too fast near children and those backing out of driveways.
|
Nottingham - Wash Blvd > Lee Hwy
|
Paint solid line(s) down center, esp if narrow 2-way street
|
Quantico/Lee Hwy
|
Blind spot making a right turn onto Lee Hwy

Throughout neighborhood
|
Potholes need to be repaired
|
- Gang graffiti on public signs
- Damage from skate boarding, e.g., 6114 N 22 Rd (on cul-de-sac)
|
1. Lee Harrison intersection is very intimidating/dangerous
2. Lack of sidewalk to reach commercial areas: 5500/5600 24th Street
|
1. Lots of mosquitoes in greenway strip area.
2. Pigeons and droppings along Harrison St sidewalk in front of Harris Teeter store
|
23rd Street bet. Lexington & Nottingham dark
|
24th Street - cars use this road in lieu of Lee Hwy--especially those parents who drop parents at Rivendell.
|
26th St. N. just east of the intersection of 26th st. N. and Lexington. I live at 5727 26yh St. N. and we do not have sidewalks or speed bumps! I am especially alarmed because I have a young daughter.
|
Bike lanes are helpful -- trails are terrific
|
Biking is good; many improvements were made. Thank you!
- Ensure sidewalks exist, especially on street with high traffic like Nottingham (between 22nd & Lee Hwy)- Speed bumps don't work; people with SUVs find them fun!!
|
Cars approach stop light at Lee & Lexington much too fast
|
Cars do not yield to any peds in crosswalks, anywhere
|
Crossing Lee Highway by foot at any intersection is very dangerous. Speeding motorists are very aggressive.
|
Crossing Lee Hwy at all points. Crossing signals at Sycamore and Harrison are routinely violated by drivers.
|
Crossing over Lee Hwy towards Harris Teeter requires going around a lane divide into traffic when pushing a baby stroller. This is very hazardous and unacceptable!
|
Dog droppings
|
Generally this is a good walking area, except for crossing Lee Highway. Lexington and Lee has bad sight lines due to bad grading.
|
Harrison & N. 26th St - dangerous to cross. Lee-Harrison intersection also still dangerous to cross. In fact, none of the pedestrian crossings of Lee Hwy are easy except maybe George Mason.
|
I feel least safe when walking from the public sidewalk to the stores at the Lee-Harrison Center - there's no pedestrian access. Also, steps on Lee Hwy sidewalk between Lexington & Nottingham are a problem with a stroller
|
I find the neighborhood to be generally bike and foot friendly, except for the absence of sidewalks in some locations. (see p. 2 & 3)
|
I love this neighborhood. Need sidewalks on all streets though.
|
Illinois & 22nd is too narrow with no sidewalk; very dangerous for walking with two way traffic.
|
Insufficient traffic lights
|
Kentucky at 22nd St - see map - needs sidewalk. Very dangerous. (note: circled curved portion of 22nd St between Lexington & Kentucky Streets)
|
Lack of complete sidewalks
|
lack of sidewalks
|
lack of sidewalks
|
Lack of sidewalks everywhere!
|
Lack of sidewalks on 26th between Ohio and Harrison
|
Lack of sidewalks on every block. Also, too many people speed on Lee Hwy, making crossing (even @ crosswalks) hazardous.
|
Lack of sidewalks on some street blocks
|
Lack of sidewalks; insufficient street light; poorly pruned trees - elec lines
|
Lee Hwy and Blvd are heavily trafficked by pedestrians and bicycles enroute to Metro. An east-west bike path would be helpful (to include extending to the W&OD Trail). Sidewalks along Lee Hwy are not uniformly shoveled in winter making it difficult for pedestrians to walk
|
Madison St. No sidewalks - cars going to & from Walter Reed & out to Lee Hwy way too fast.
22nd St east of Lexington
|
More sidewalks needed I several areas
|
More bike lanes in general.
|
N Nottingham St between Lee Hwy & Washington Blvd
23rd St between N Nottingham & N Lexington St
|
Need bike lanes along major roads, such as Lee Hwy & wash Blvd. People continue to go through red lights. I especially notice this at the intersection of Wash Blvd & Ohio.
|
|
No areas of concern.
|
No concern - excellent bike paths!
|
Not enough sidewalks on N Illinois to get to CVS/Blockbuster
|
Pavement of the pedestrian thru-way between Powhatan and N. 22nd St would be very appreciated and lighting. The bluestone is hard to get over with a stroller and a wagon. Better lighting along Quantico and 23rd St (the street lights seem to go out a lot and are too dim)
|
Pedestrian crossing at Harrison St and N 26th St is very dangerous. Sidewalks start and then end on N 26th St, so the effect is to discourage pedestrian traffic all together.
|
Pedestrian safety at lee hwy and Harrison.
|
Pedestrians crossing Washington (from Ohio to John Marshall Dr (i.e. Northbound) - west side) cannot see "walk/don't walk" lighted sign - it's angled to the east so it is not visible clearly
|
Sidewalk break on 22nd Street at greenway - south side
|
Since Lexington got speed bumps our street has more traffic and at a faster pace. Harrison & 22nd needs a 4-way stop. People in general drive too fast--if speed bumps irritate people maybe more cops would slow people down!
|
some sidewalks too narrow specifically Lexington St. between 22nd st. and Lee hwy - could narrow rd. to slow traffic and expand sidewalk.
|
Speed of cars is #1 concern and lack of sidewalks. Our houses are close to the street & lack of sidewalks makes it very dangerous.
|
speeding cars on N. Illinois St.
|
The irregular sidewalks. Some street blocks have them and then they stop or pick up again on the other side of the street. Busy through streets like Nottingham should have them all the way from Lee Hwy to Washington Blvd. I don't know why all the new houses on Nottingham didn't have to put in sidewalks.
|
The lack of sidewalk on N Illinois St connecting N 22nd St to Lee Hwy - lacking two full blocks. This is a major route for pedestrians getting to Lee Hwy transportation and shopping and for students (young) and their siblings getting to the bus stop.
|
The walk down the hill at Nottingham (between 22nd Rd & 22nd St) is dangerous - no sidewalks, cars are often parked there, bushes interfere with walking on the grass.
|
Turn signals for cars going north & south on Geo. Mason Dr. as well as Harrison St. on Lee Hwy,
|
Walking on the Greenway bike path can be hazardous due to the high speed of bikes on the path.
|
We run to the W&OD trail/Four Mile Run trail as well as the Custis trail 3-5 times a week. Please continue to preserve and encourage safe access to these.
