There are multiple overhead lights at the Bryan Park tennis courts near the intersection of Woodlawn and Maxwell. Some of the lights shine on the courts while some of the lights shine on the street and sidewalk. The lights aligned to shine on the street and sidewalk are all out. As a result, it is very dark on this section of Woodlawn.
Parking lot area very overgrown with weeds The parking lot by community garden And low hanging tree limb over sidewalk on south side of park
I am writing to bring your attention to a serious safety concern at the entrance of the Winslow Sports Park in Bloomington, Indiana, specifically the lack of a sidewalk and clear crosswalk on Highland Avenue. As a concerned resident and frequent park user, I would like to request immediate action to address this issue to prevent potential accidents and injuries. On [date], I had two close encounters where I almost got hit by cars speeding into the park and not paying attention to pedestrians. This alarming situation made me realize the imminent danger that exists for both pedestrians and drivers. Given that the park is designed to promote pedestrian activity, it is essential to create a safe and accessible environment for all users, especially considering the large neighborhood across the street. I kindly request the following actions to be taken as soon as possible: 1. Construction of a Sidewalk: I urge you to install a sidewalk along Highland Avenue leading up to the entrance of Winslow Sports Park. This would provide a designated path for pedestrians and separate them from vehicular traffic, ensuring their safety. 2. Installation of a Clear Crosswalk: It is imperative to establish a clearly marked crosswalk at the park entrance, complete with visible signage and pedestrian indicators. This would serve as a visual cue for drivers to yield to pedestrians and encourage safer crossing. By addressing these concerns promptly, we can prevent any potential accidents and injuries that may arise from the current hazardous situation. Moreover, enhancing the accessibility and safety of the park would further encourage pedestrian engagement and contribute to the overall well-being of our community. I kindly request that you consider the urgency of this matter and allocate the necessary resources to implement these changes. I am also willing to collaborate with the appropriate departments or community organizations to help facilitate the process and ensure a successful outcome. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I believe that with your support, we can create a safer environment for all park users and foster a greater sense of community. I look forward to hearing from you soon regarding the proposed course of action.
Along the southern edge of South East park there is a brambly thorn bush that is over hanging the sidewalk. Could it please be trimmed back off the sidewalk so pedestrians are scratched by the thorns? I think the best way to describe the location would the edge of the park nearest the house at 1811 S Montclair.
