Snow removal at entrance off of walnut and the 45/46 entrance we were told was maintained by city, no one came Friday and both entrances are hard to access without 4 wheel drive.
Plow driver must think it is an alley as the last 2 snows they have not plowed it when the rest of prospect neighborhood is clear
There are areas that are still difficult to pass due to snow piles that are currently unmovable by hand.
Road isnt plowed still and we live at the bottom of the hill, extremely hard to leave our homes
This morning, November 10, on my son’s way to school, he slid off the road and damaged his car. He was not going to fast, nor could he have done anything to prevent it as he hit a patch of ice on a curve. While a somewhat new driver comparatively, he has experience navigating slick conditions from growing up racing and riding 4 wheelers, dirt bikes, etc. The reason he slid off the road is because it was not salted, sanded or treated in any way. The road, Acuff, is a road traveled by many students to get to Bloomington North. As he sat and waited for his Father to help him, he witnessed numerous cars almost run into him, do 360’s, and hit curbs. Why this road wasn’t a priority being a route to the school is baffling. I hope roads that are connected to school parking lots will become a priority, especially as in this case when the weather was no surprise.
I submitted a complaint, case #206728 and Cheyenne Bowlen was assigned to it. I was told that the city does not do past 100 ft off of Kinser pike, and that it was the county’s responsibility and to reach out to them. I did. They said it is, in fact the city’s responsibility to do Acuff, and that they only have responsibility of Prow, just before it turns to Acuff. The county was confident and firm in their boundaries. So, either one of you is wrong, or there is an unfortunately placed gap in service, as it is a very sharp curve that happens to be the route many kids drive themselves to and from school. Please look into this with consideration to the kids.
The cul-de-sac at Treadwell lane was not cleared. There is no place to put trash and recycling containers to be put out tonight (Jan. 7, 2025)
S Covey Lane has yet to be plowed as of Tuesday afternoon... it is a dead-end road, but it seems unusual to not be plowed out by Tuesday following a Sunday storm... someone else mentioned that in past years it would have been plowed on Sunday night and then again on Monday, and that sounds about right.
Smith ave between s. Maple and Euclid hasn't been plowed and we can get our cars out due to deep snow. Just wonder when it will be done. Thank you
The area is still heavily covered in snow, with most street parking spots completely blocked. My car and others continues to slide, creating unsafe driving conditions. It’s unacceptable that much of downtown Bloomington—including roads and sidewalks—remains in this condition. The city should prioritize clearing these areas and take greater responsibility for the safety of the community.
