Item: Atlanta (Fulton)

A reader has an issue with a sign in the heart of the city and hopes we can help resolve the problem

“This traffic/detour sign has been in front of my building for months at 3275 Lenox Rd NE in Atlanta. I’ve called 311 and reported it on the 311 website but the sign is still there,” wrote Ann Ferretti.

The sign is in a peculiar place, and Ferretti can’t understand why the sign has not been removed,

We sent the issue to the city and will keep you updated when the sign is gone,

Item: Fixed Atlanta (Fulton)

Two weeks ago we told you about a pothole reported by Clay Edwards that had languished. The issue has been frustrating Edwards for months. Edwards tried contacting the city, but had no luck.

“About 100 feet east of the intersection of Wyngate and West Wesley Road, on West Wesley Road, in the Buckhead area is a sunken manhole that cars run across every day. It jars the houses nearby and makes a tremendous explosive noise, especially when a truck runs across it. It has existed for years. Can you please raise that manhole so that it is flush with the asphalt?” Edwards asked.

We heard from Edwards last week the issue was finally fixed.
