We're having a lot of issues with the bus stops being located on our properties and it bringing disturbances to our center. We request that all bus stops get moved off of the private property as soon as possible. Thank you.
I'm disappointed to find out that the 11 bus is an express route that stops only at the Atlas apartments and on the IU campus. The bus drives right by several stops for the 2 bus on West 17th, and these could be convenient stops for students and university workers that live in the homes and apartment complexes in that area/near Maple Heights. While it wouldn't entirely solve the issue that this area is dangerous for pedestrians (currently few pedestrian crossings near Kinser Pike, W 17th, and N Madison; parts of W 15th with no sidewalks etc.), adding a few 11 route stops nearby could decrease walk times and distance in these areas for those currently walking to bus stops for the 6 route. Please consider adding a couple of stops on the 11 route to serve W 17th street!
Bus stop hazard
Can we PLEASE move the bus stop signage / stop location at least 30 ft north of its current location to prevent people from falling into a drainage sinkhole this is located next to the existing drain. We reported this sinkhole THREE years ago, but nothing has been done, and now it's a hazard to passengers getting off of the #5 bus. Do I have to wait until Mayor Thomson to finally get this fixed? Hamilton has ignored this for THREE F'N YEARS. Sad.
Bus stop hazard: Can we please move the location of the #5 bus stop sign 30ft north. When the bus stops adjacent to the sign here passengers have to exit the bus right next to large (and growing bigger) sinkhole next to the storm drain. The sinkhole was reported years ago, but it persists. At least let me get off the bus without risking falling into a sinkhole before I have to walk through all that wet grass in the easement. Please?
At approximately 7:50am 3/6/203 a B-ton transit bus driver, traveling SB through High St and Arden Dr intersection, failed to come to a complete stop. There were cars, pedestrians, cyclists in and around the intersection. Mostly, it's the elementary school kids on their way to school that are at greatest risk from poor driving habits.

The Bloomington Police Department investigates after a city transit but struck and killed a woman near the bus station at the corner of Third Street, and Walnut, Thursday, September 26, 2019 in Bloomington, Ind. Police are not yet releasing the name of the women pending notification of next of kin. BPD Police Lt. John Kovach said, "At this time preliminarily it appears that the city transit bus was pulling out of the station when the victim was struck. She is a deceased. It is a female. I do not have any other information, age, or name or anything that we're going to release at this time, obviously due to next of kin notification. So at this point, the investigation is ongoing with our accident reconstructionists. I do not know when any information will be released for the accident. Obviously, we want to make sure that we do a good thorough investigation." (Photo by Jeremy Hogan/The Bloomingtonian)
Can't fix. No issue detailed
The bus stop at this location was vandalized over a month ago and all the glass panes removed. This is the closest stop to my house, and the temperatures with wind chill have been terrible recently. Please replace the glass panes in this structure promptly; it would be very much appreciated by members of your community and Bloomington Transit Users.
