the rain grate has come to be a good 5-7 inches beneath the surface of the street, probably from the road being reopened several times. the grate is on the north side of the street, east of 4th. cars swerve to avoid it.
there is a manhole cover just north of 14th on college that has below the surface of the street. it's pretty dangerous for people on motorcycles and mopeds. there is another sunken manhole cover just south of 14th on college as well
another rain grate that had sunken deep to create a big pothole. the rest on the street around it were fine, but one is quite bad and we had to serve around it. on north side of street.
Fire hydrant on north west corner of Fess & University has been leaking heavily for several days (noticed when walking through neighborhood this past weekend). Don't know if anyone has reported it yet or not. Curb area is large puddle of water (mosquito haven).
We have received several complaints on this safety concern. Street cut/storm drain repair work within most of the 3rd street bike lane has not been finished.
This area needs a street drain. Every time it rains water pools at this corner making it difficult for people walking down the sidewalk to cross the street. During the winter, this turns into a block of ice making it very dangerous for people crossing the street. Children in this neighborhood walk to Child's Elementary School and have to jump over the puddle of water when it's warm and try not to fall on the block of ice that form here during the winter. Please install a street drain in this location. Thank you.
There is a huge pot hole on the junction of Morton and 10th that wasn't there before and it only showed up after the road was closed on Friday. The pothole was so huge that it damaged the wheel cover of my car which is now affecting the tire pressure on that side of the wheel. I believe this wasn't my fault and now I'm suffering the consequences.
Superbad pot hole man hole cover thingy
The road that leads to the Jordan parking garage (University Road?)has a large "pothole" that resulted in a blown tire. I would think this is a university maintained road since it is not on Jordan, but rather the side road that leads to the parking garage, but IU claims it is the city's responsibility. I have attached pictures. It appears this is from construction and/or utility work rather than natural erosion, and there is a sharp and steep edge/drop-off. I did not have a ruler with me, but used a standard size sharpie to show the depth. Using a ruler afterwards, the hard edge/cliff is approximately 5 inches. In the dark at night there is no lighting, and when making a left onto that road there is no way to see it with your headlights. In addition to requesting that the hole be repaired, I would like to receive reimbursement for the damaged (flat, non repairable)tire. Thank you for your time.
S. Jordan and Sheridan (Sheridan crosses S. Jordan twice--this is the Southern-most intersection) There was a water leak that was repaired, but the large patch they did was apparently not steamrolled (too cold?) In any case, it's a big lumpy mass.
