Accessibility Issue: Crumbling Sidewalk. This is an update of ticket #176208, since I forgot the exact location: Intersection of E Covenanter and the entry to the strip mall (unnamed road). This intersection has no curb cut which forces wheelchair users to go out into the street, which is a traffic hazard and dangerous. Please fix.
Sidewalk has settled over an inch below the street. Significant trip hazard. Crews are fixing sidewalk end caps the next block down and I was hoping this was included in that work scope. Thank you.
Winslow Woods has overgrown into the sidewalk along Azalea making it impassable. Residents and students walking to South are forced to walk on the road.
700 S Eastside Drive. This sidewalk was once sagging and was repaired by the city, now it is flaking again. A hazard for the many pedestrians who walk here daily on their way to campus.
Dangerously uneven sidewalk. South side of 6th
On the sidewalk on the corner of 8th and Washington, there is a square stone block embedded in the sidewalk. It is a tripping hazard. I have stumbled on it twice and this second time I broke my toe. I am not sure what it’s doing there, but it is immovable. It is on 8th St, beside the Stone Mansion on the corner.
6 sidewalk squares in a row are crumbled making it difficult for Pedestrian walking
Sidewalk is sinking and cracked
The sidewalk imprints about walking your scooters across the street are degrading, and are slippery. I was walking on Kirkwood, and the one on the corner in front of the Cafe Pizzeria (that corner) is where I slipped and hurt my right knee. I walk frequently there as I am a student at IU, and it's only slippery on top of the remneants of that imprint. Someone is going to get hurt or die even if they crack their skull!
On the NW corner of 10th and Forrest there is a hazardous situation. There is no sidewalk along Forrest, but there is on 10th. When someone is walking south on Forrest on the west side of the street, the person must walk in a grassy area that looks a bit like a sidewalk from a distance, though it is only grass. When that person gets to the intersection with 10th Street, there is a drop-off of about 4 inches to the 10th Street sidewalk that is unexpected and jarring. Perhaps a little ramp there would improve the situation, though the addition of a sidewalk along Forrest would be a more ideal remedy. It is not clear if this is a City or a Campus issue, so please forward if this request should be sent to IU instead.
