Going West along Countryside Dr. there are trees along sidewalk on left hand side of road. At intersection Adams Hill Circle and Countryside...view to see oncoming traffic on either side of Countryside Dr. is completely obstructed by trees - cannot see oncoming traffic. This is a school zone, with high traffic volume in morning and evenings, problem compounded with bikers and pedestrian traffic.
Between houses 1210 and 1212 on South Lincoln Street, there is a section of pavement that has buckled and is allowing runoff to wash out the soil under the road and sidewalk. The size is approximately 16" X 36". It is located directly off of the curb, and near the driveway for 1212 South Lincoln St.
In front of our home, 2301 E Arden Dr, there is fairly significant erosion taking place along the edge of the road. I know it's hard on the snow plows and it's just crumbling and could use a fresh layer of tar. If you all could please add that to the repair list, I haven't noticed a lot of trouble elsewhere on the street, but we are on a corner, at the bottom of an incline, and near a water drain. I would really appreciate it. Thank you!!!
Large pothole in alley that runs parallel in between Fess and Henderson street, perpindicular between 1st and Maxwell. If you're coming in to the alley from 1st street, the pothole is on your left about 20 feet in. It is huge and now with the snow makes driving down this alley hazardous.
Location: 611 E State Road 45,46 Bypass and 711 to a lesser extent. There is gravel and sand on the driveways of these homes at the junction of the sidewalks. This makes it difficult for the bicycle riders to ride throughout it. I assume it is the responsibility of the owners to clean it up. If you could give them a call, maybe that would help. The 611 address is very bad and the 711 address is moderate. On the positive side, your department has been doing an excellent job of cleaning up the limestone chunks that fall down on the sidewalk further east where you had to cut through the stone for the new highway. Thanks! Regards, Andrew Loeb
Pothole on Heritage (off E 3rd St) close to house #116. Heritage is dark at night, and therefore can be dangerous for the pedestrian. Also, huge overgrowth of foliage on sidewalk in front of 3813 E 3rd St. Obstructs the sidewalk. I noticed that when I get off the bus on E 3rd, in front of Century's building, the sidewalk ends rather than helps the pedestrian reach the corner of Smith Rd so that I can cross to get to E Morningside Dr. This is unacceptable for the pedestrian.
I would like to report a series of potholes in the west bound lanes of Covenantor Drive on the northside of the road near the wooded area just east of building containing dental offices, approximately the 3000 or 3100 east block on Covenantor. Please see the attached map and the approximate area is outlined in red It appears that these holes are caused by the many Bloomington Transit Buses that drive on this road and it also appears that these holes have been patched several times in the past. The holes are getting deeper. I hope that these series of holes can be patched properly before the first snow. Thanks.
I noticed you are going to be doing sidewalk work in our neighborhood...The Stands..specifically the Ashwood area. There is a dangerous spot on the sidewalk right at the Stands Drive and Pierson court...north side of the street about 4 rectangles in from the corner. The block is elevated way off of the ground and is a dangerous hazard. Don't know if you can fit this in with the other work you are doing in this area. Thanks for your consideration. Also the sidewalk, in numerous places, on the west side of the Stands drive between Ashwood Drive and Ashwood Lane is crumbling.
Stormwater runoff into detention area on E. Brightcrest on east side of S. Smith Road is slow to drain due to vegetation blockage of storm sewer. During heavy rain it results in water flowing over sidewalk and into the street. It also is flooding spruce trees and thus may be detrimental to their health if the condition continues into somewhat warmer weather.
