City of Bloomington, Indiana

closed: Can't Fix #187649

Trails:

Other: There's a person riding a gasoline powered motorcycle or bicycle or similar contraption up and down the Rail Trail just about daily lately. It's very loud and goes too fast for a pedestrian and multi-use trail. I've seen it numerous times between Gordon Pike and Country Club on the rail trail. Just one of the many problems and dangers the city allows to continue on the trail since the homeless camps on city property on the trail have swelled in size. Those camps need to be cleared out immediately for the safety of all trail users.

Thanks for the report - we periodically receive a complaint about a gas powered bike here and elsewhere in town but it is extremely hard to enforce, as by the time we are notified of an issue it is already somewhere else. Battery vehicles are allowed on the trails but not gas-powered and other motorized vehicles. The City, and particularly the new administration, is working with private property owners where encampments are currently located south of Switchyard. More info will be posted as we have it.
