The line of sight leaving Switchyard Park by the police substation to exit onto Patterson is in need of some help. First, when you look to your right (east) there is an overgrowth of brush and bushes that obstruct the view. Then, when you look to your left (west) the Switchyard Park sign is in the way! This park is horrendous for traffic flow. There is not a single entrance/exit to the park that has a well planned or safe means of entering and exiting. All three of the main parking areas exit onto a busy street with no traffic signals or signs to aid in the entry or exit. Traffic backs up on Rogers, for instance, at times when one car is waiting to make a left turn into the park on southbound Rogers. This is going to only be worse when there is a concert or an event going on. What a bad design!

The flowers in front of Ami restaurant are in the way and you can't see traffic coming if you are turning left onto 3rd St off of Swain Ave

The planter at the Switchyard Park entrance on Rogers Street (south of the warehouse, east of the power substation) is heavily overgrown with perfectly selected flora to obscure the line of sight for people trying to exit the park. I was driving north on Rogers and a car almost pulled out into the road in front of me. I could barely see them behind the overgrowth and they obviously could not see me. That entire stretch of Rogers by the park is looking a little rough, to be honest. There is a lot of overgrown stuff along Rogers. The line of sight exiting the park is the most egregious and the most dangerous. Can this get taken care of before someone gets hurt? Thanks.

I Googled "Bloomington Rail Trail" and it shows up under the City Parks Department, as I thought was the case. So, I am submitting this report for the City, even though it is along a County road. The crossing of the Rail Trail at Rogers street south of Gordon Pike and north of That Road (which road? That Road) is overgrown on the southeast side of the crossing. When driving on Rogers from the south headed north, it is difficult to see the trail and trail users on the east side of Rogers. People drive fast on this part of Rogers. Can the city clean up this line of sight issue so people are safer crossing the road? Thanks.

The weeds are so overgrown at this address that it is really hard to see if you would like to turn from Nancy onto Hillside. This is a yearly problem.

Line of sight/safety hazard because of excessive growth in front of 820 W. 2nd Street. For those turning onto 2nd street from Euclid street, the vegetation blocks the line of site. This is especially dangerous because the property is near the top of a hill, which already obstructs line of sight.

2 things: First, because of the bad line of sight, it is VERY difficult to pull out of our subdivision Bentley Court, or to turn into it. The other thing is we REALLY need a deer crossing sign there. Every day, deer go behind our houses and cross Winslow. Each day, I hold my breath, and can't look. Cars cannot see because of the bad line of sight/hill and then, there are the deer, daily. Help please!!!

At the intersection of Circle Dr and Ruby lane, 8 large plots of very tall decorative grass, along the Ruby Lane side of the property at 1717 Circle Dr, block the view of oncoming traffic from the east. These need to be removed.

The northwest corner of Nancy Street and Hillside Drive is overgrown in the city's right of way. It is currently unsafe for any cars heading/and turning south on Nancy Street onto Hillside Drive. Please trim the trees and bushes for a safer intersection for pedestrians, drivers, and passengers. Thank you.
