The fenced in playground at Bryan Park, the one for smaller children, has some significant gaps in the rubber mats under the play equipment. One was large enough that my toddler was constantly getting his foot stuck and tripping. Can this please be looked at and corrected? Thanks!!
I love Bryan Park and have walked there nearly every morning for many years. In the past year or so, bikes have increased in numbers in the park and have become a significant danger to pedestrians. While there are many bikers who are careful and ride slowly down the park's paths, there are always a few bike riders who speed along the park's sidewalks and paths, endangering pedestrians and pets. They fail to announce themselves when they are passing people from behind and ride at speeds that are too fast to be safe. There are many older people who use the park as well as people with small children and pets. The bikers are especially dangerous to them. There should be some safe places for pedestrians in Bloomington and the parks should be among these places. Please keep the bikes out of the park and off of the sidewalks surrounding the park or please enforce bicycle speed limits in the park. This is an accident waiting to happen. An encounter with an unsafe biker is nearly a daily event in the park.
Btoken swing at Bryan park near Woodlawn and Sheridan
I was at a cookout at Bryan Park this past week and noticed the orange slide near the shelter on the Woodlawn avenue side isn't very sturdy. The top of the slide where it connects to the rest of the structure only has one bolt and it looks as if it should have 4. A man there commented on how "treacherous" it was and wouldn't let his daughter play on it.
This says Griffey is closed every day? https://bloomington.in.gov/parks/parks/griffy-lake
uReport Case #168317: I got a follow up email today about the hole I reported. Thanks to the long period of heavy rainfall, I think I have discovered what is responsible for the holes---burrowing crawdads. So, I still think the holes are dangerous BUT maybe there is no point in filling them.
Newly planted trees should not be dug up at schmals farm park because one well connected citizen “didn’t like them”.
I'm so excited to have a lovely patch of trees by the creek. This will be a nice addition to a wonderful spot. This is a great improvement and happy this is being preserved. Thank you!!

Considering the consistent degradation of wetlands and waterways that we see so often, it was really nice to see efforts to protect these habitats through the planting of a buffer of trees at Schmalz Farm Park. I am amazed by the number of trees planted and it's really exciting to think that Bloomington Parks is working to remediate a habitat.
