The alley behind my business is blocked with Trucks and cars servicing IU building next door. Since IU parking lot is right there why are the trucks blocking the alley. My customers need access to my parking lot and Trucks and cars parked in the alley make it difficult to enter my lot.
Property in preoccupied, tenants have eight cars, some are routinely parked off property in alley, blocking it.
Truck with trailer is blocking driveway. Owner refuses to move truck. If this is not resolved soon I will involve BPD.
Dear city of Bloomington, While I'm grateful your team has looked into this, the issue is far from being resolved. The repair work did not make any improvement in the noise. The remedy that was done the first time worked for awhile. The grate needs to be opened and cleaned out so that it seats properly. A rubber ring or some kind of padding needs to be placed on the contact points to reduce the vibration. The loud noise is going on 24/7. I'd like to invite a member of your team to see it for yourself. Feel free to contact me and I can meet you at the site of the storm grates. Regards, Craig Subject: uReport Case #180991 https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=180991 Closed by Kathleen Powell Per CBU supervisor, a crew went to this site and put con-seal around the manhole covers. This should stop the noise when cars drive over them.
Why do City vehicles park in the bike lane instead of the street? Many times while riding my bike on 7th street this year, I have had to ride around City vehicles parked in and blocking the 7Line because the driver was watering trees or something. Firstly, it's much easier for a car to drive around a truck than for a cyclist going up a steep hill and more vulnerable than drivers to have to ride into oncoming traffic or try to squeeze around an enormous truck. Secondly, this sends the signal that the City prioritizes drivers over cyclists. I should hope that's not actually the case, but it feels like it. Why not park in the car lane? Either side would be by the trees that are in the median between the 7Line and the car lanes, and it wouldn't impact the safety of the City workers. But it does impact the safety of people on bikes, who are already at more risk of injury from crashes.
This vehicle is consistently parked in the bus stop / turn lane every morning as pictured. It causes near accidents when cars attempt to get in the turn lane but then have to veer back out because this vehicle is in the way. I called it a "blocked street" because I don't know if it's legitimately parked or if it is illegally parked in the bus stop, but it's definitely unsafe. The car is not there in the evenings but is there weekday mornings on my drive to work.
Buffalouie’s on Indiana has put signs on their parklet tables saying only their customers may use their tables. Is that allowed? It seems odd that they can take public property and say it’s only for them. Thank you.
In the westbound lane of Grimes just west of Woodlawn there is a tree limb hanging down into the road. It is not blocking the street in the sense that it is impassable, but this was the best option it seemed. The branch can hit a car or SUV in the windshield and/or roof as you drive by. It is pretty low and needs removed.
Car has been abandoned in the road blocking traffic and driveways since early this morning
Car parked in street for several days, impeding traffic
