It was a dark, but fair evening. Last night at around 10pm, I found myself traveling south on Walnut Street. Cruising along, listening to NPR, when, out of no where, a giant hole. I didn't succumb to the fear, and successfully steered my way around it. But, there might be a Smart Car or a bicyclist waiting for rescue at the bottom of that pothole. The pothole is in the right travel lane, in front of the Herald Times Building. If you are heading south, it would be the far western lane of Walnut. Go out there, and you will see it.

There are reoccurring pot holes in front of 1840 E Rock Creek Dr. The pot holes are due to an underground spring that runs under the road. The road needs to be torn up and drainage be installed to correct the issue. For years the city puts a bandaid on the issue by filling in the potholes.
Lots of asphalt patches on S. Wilton Dr. between Windsor and Greenbriar got ripped up in the recent storms, and could benefit from new patches.
This is a general observation. Over the last few years I have been seeing metal sheets screwed to Bloomington roads, presumably to cover work in progress. I have observed a problem with many of these sheets. They are screwed down with small gauge screws. They are not sufficient to keep the sheets secure. They work their way out and stick up an inch in some places. Their heads are small. They look sharp enough to damage a tire, and a damaged tire is a safety issue.
Potholes at the bottom of the Winslow Road hill, heading down and up from the Goat Farm roundabout. Still fairly shallow but wide.
Recents rain has eroded a lot of edges from the roadway along Sussex Drive, leaving chunks of asphalt in the middle of the roadway. The asphalt really needs to be cleaned up, and the edges need to be examined. They have been eroding for years.
