The asphalt has collapsed next to the sewer drain and water is flowing into the sewer through the hole, eroding the area under it. (This is the second drain in this neighborhood I have reported for the same issue. It seems the contractor might have used less-than-standard practices in preparing the street drains here.)
Lots of grit and gravel in the road
Man hole was uncovered, blew my tire and caused damage to my car. Police report number is B25-11744. Police officer stated the city of Bloomington legal department would cover the damages. I have contacted my insurance company as well.
Displaced man hole/sewage cover in left north bound lane just north of intersection.
The man hole is loose and not secure. It was up when I drove by and popped my tire and rim of my car. I will be contacting the city to try and make it right for the damages.
On corner of valley forge and pickwick place. Sunken in drain grates or pitting on roadway surface makes travel either via car or bike or run ing very bumpy or hazardous...I have twisted my leg here before.
A drain grate is missing at the corner of the parking lot across from Courtyard Suites by Marriott on S College. I believe this missing cover is on Monroe County property. In any case it drains to either a tributary to Clear Creek or Clear Creek itself. The creek is buried under S College, the Marriott Parking lot and a cement pad running the length of the house to the south. I have a wider view shot better showing the location but uReport will only let me upload a single photo so I have uploaded a close up of the missing grate. It's been like this for several weeks and I am just today remembering to upload the photo I took.
This week, someone with a backpack blower blew all of the leaves from the property on the wedt side of the street into the middle of the street. I assumed they were going to remove them. They did not. It is now a matted coating of leaves on a steep descent to a stop sign. Very unsafe (esp if it rains and freezes). The road needs to be cleared here to prevent an accident.
I drive by this spot each day, and I am amazed that there is always running water there. I happen to be walking by this evening at the end of a hot day at the end of two very dry weeks, and it’s still wet there. It does not appear to be running water coming from a house over the hill. Something is up with the street or under the street.
