1 upper left) This accessible space is not. To use it, you must get out of your vehicle into the street and go down the street to the left to get onto the sidewalk (see 2, upper right) and back to the meter. 3 lower left) The meter is next to a raised portion of the sidewalk which a manual chair could not traverse either way, north or south. 4 lower right) The obvious solution to this is to swap the accessible space with the one just south of it that has a ramp built into the median between the street and sidewalk. A van parking there could get their life directly onto the ramp. The other issue, of course, would be to fix the raised sidewalk so the person could then go north from there, as opposed to going around the block.

Northeast corner on alleyway next to First United Methodist Church on Washington between Kirkwood and 4th Streets. This broken-up pavement makes coming off this sidewalk onto the alleyway fairly dangerous if you're in a wheelchair.

The photograph of this hole was taken Sept. 27, 2019. The same hole can be found in case #161692 from Oct. 27, 2017. Danna Workman reported that the hole had been repaired, but I can assure you it was not. It is located between 1217 and 1221 N Madison (closer to 1217, and so large as to be observable from satellite photos and Google Street View). Even though I knew it was there, in the dark the other night, I nearly turned an ankle in it. The whole sidewalk along the west side of N. Madison between 16th and 17th is in a terrible state of disrepair and has been the entire time I've lived in this neighborhood. I know that landowners are supposed to maintain the sidewalks, but I also know that it's the city's duty to enforce that rule. What I don't know is why Danna Workman reported that the hole was repaired when it wasn't. In any event, the sidewalk is still a hazard. What are you going to do about it?

I recently saw a map of sidewalks that showed the westside of Madison between 16th and 17th was in "fair" condition (https://bloomington.in.gov/transportation/sidewalks/repair-assistance/map.pdf). This stretch of sidewalk is narrow and broken and one of the worst well-traveled pedestrian areas in town. The east side of the street, labeled poor on the map, isn't nearly as bad. At the very least, I'd like the map corrected so there is an accurate recored. But, what I'd really like done is that this block is fixed. It is heavily traversed and will likely see more traffic once the bus routes change. Thank you.

This section of sidewalk close to 3016 E. Daniel St. in Kensington has been lifted by several inches likely due to a tree root below. Recently witnessed an individual in a wheelchair who had been at Schmalz Park almost tip over as she attempted to roll across it. It is very unsafe and will most certainly cause someone to have an accident if not addressed. It is hard to tell from the photo how bad this section truly is, must be seen in person.

I just went back to correct something in my text using the in-app back button and now all of the text is gone....
There is a pile of broken glass on the sidewalk on the north side of 3rd street between College and the B-line, the sidewalk that has an incline and black fencing. The glass is about half way between College and the B-Line. It has been there for quite a while

the sidewalk/curb cut that slopes down to 6th Street from the corner of 6th and Walnut (outside Samira) is in a terrible state of disrepair. As a wheelchair user, I need to dodge the crumbling cement and holes as I negotiate the slope. Doing that with traffic turning left from Walnut is DANGEROUS. Can this part of the sidewalk be fixed by the city?
