Sheriff cars are almost always parked on the sidewalk.
Yet another vehicle parked right on the sidewalk at the sheriff depot.
Sidewalk on the south side of the street is covered over with vines. there seems to be a sidewalk all the way from all Olcott street Heading east past Regent Circle but it is completely covered with vines other vegetation.
Why is the sidewalk before and after the traintracks on Pete Ellis Drive never shoveled? In the three big snowfalls this year - nothing. And previous years. This is a highly pedestrian area.
Why is there snowpiled up at the Bloomington Hospital bus stops? Pedestrians have to climb over piles of snow or else stand in the street.
Rhodes Family Farm truck parked on sidewalk. North side of Kirkwood. It was unoccupied. I fell trying to get around it without stepping in the giant puddles in front of it. Now I'm soaked and still have more errands to do walking in cold temps. I'm getting so tired of everyone parking on sidewalks.
Main streets in Bloomington and Normal were plowed and very passable yesterday. However, Chestnut, Allin and Mason streets did not fare the same. I left the facility at 6:00 pm last night and at that time the streets still appeared as if not plowed. In order to get from the lot to the building, staff and patients have to Cross Chestnut. This morning when I came in at 7:30 am, the road conditions were not much better. Although the road did appear to be plowed, we had little mountains to cross at driveway and sidewalk intersections. Since we are a 24 hour facility and have a pretty decent volume of patients (from pediatrics to geriatrics as well as some mobility assistance devices) and staff using this facility, we were wondering if there is a conversation to be had with the city.
This truck blocks the sidewalk every day. It is on the intersection of Washington and first St. at the house that's being rebuilt.
