Description
I was walking with my friend along 24th St between 81st Ave SE and 77th Ave SE and she has a walker. Because of all the ivy, blackberry, and hanging blackberry, dead trees, dead branches, and foliage that needs cutting back from the trees, it was hard for us to walk side-by-side and if someone was coming from the other direction, they had to walk in the roadway as the foliage is overgrown and growing over the sidewalk. You need a crew to clean up the whole area and to ask Sound Transit to remove the ivy on their property which is overgrowing onto the City's property (sidewalk). I am happy to walk with someone to show them what is going on. With North Mercer Way, that is the only way we can walk right now so we have no choice but to walk along 24th St.
