The small piece of extra curb at the pinned location is in the path of cars turning from 7th onto College and is not well marked, leading to cars driving over it instead of around it
I am a resident of B-Linr Heights Apartments and I am disabled as is my daughter and quite a few other residents. We use the bus often and love having a bus stop close to the apartments. The problem though is that the bus stop is not handicap accessible. There is a makeshift ramp of sorts that is basically leftover blacktop that is sort of threw there. I know my daughter and myself usually walk alongside the road, there is a bicycle lane, until we reach a lower part of the sidewalk and there we try to lift our rollators to get on the sidewalk. I know there is an elderly man and woman who also take the bus and use mobility aides as well. It is dangerous to walk up the road but when you cannot use the makeshift ramp to access the sidewalk you are limited as to options. I know a few drivers have let us off the bus down at the green trades district sign that is at the road directly across from the apartments. This has helped as the area there is accessable. I don't know if the stop could possibly be moved down to there or if someone could look into fixing the sidewalk alongside Rogers St to make it more handicap accessible, but I do think many of the residents, not just myself, would be very appreciative of it. Thank you for taking this into consideration. We enjoy where we are and taking the bus, we just want to do so a bit safer. Thank you.
Sidewalk on west side, south of Third Street is overgrown and badly needs attention, both curb and verge. Creepy and unpleasant to walk on, and this is a major NW/SE route for bikes and peds. Thank you.
The right side of the street has no parking signs that can't be seen and no part of the curb is yellow. Starting at the first house as it curves numerous cars like to park at night on that side going up to spring Street. From the first house up 2 the first stop sign have people. Parking on the no parking side. We've asked them 2 stop, but maybe because this is a dead end street the city hasn't addressed the brush blocking the signs And no yellow curbs. My girlfriend hit a truck parked illegally at night last week. Sorry. To ramble but we need this addressed B4 someone gets hurt/ and or winter gets here
City of Bloomington has not mowed adjacent to the paved pathway they purchased from us last year at the corner of S. Henderson & Moody Drive.
A citizen called to report a concern and wishes to remain anonymous. According to the caller, for two months there has been no construction on the bike path off of Sare Road. There are still signs saying 'sidewalk closed' as well as 'construction ahead' but it appears that the construction has stopped. Lastly, the Spicewood II sign had been taken down and since put back up but the citizen is disappointed there has been no landscaping done and the limestone around the sign was broken.
High street sidewalk project looks like absolute horseshit. Kids walk through a half complete construction zone everyday with trash, busted up concrete and rusty rebar laying everywhere. This is completely unacceptable. Finish the project!
On the NW corner of Dunn and 4th St the distinct squared out curb (rather than rounded) is very hard to miss hitting with your tires, when turning right from southbound Dunn onto westbound 4th St, especially if there is a vehicle at the stop sign going eastbound on 4th St. It is necessary to swing wide turning right in order to avoid hitting that curb. That 90degree curb shown this happens regularly as it is a bit broken and covered in black from being hit with tires. Very hard on tires!
618 S Ballantine and many properties drain water onto the street, which freezes on the sidewalk. Not here, but often it is drains through a retaining wall directly on to the sidewalk. DANGER to PEDESTRIANS.
On Grimes Lane, in the 700 block, between Woodlawn and Henderson, the street is so dirty and full of leaves, other debris, that 3-foot high weeds are growing in the crevice between the curb and sidewalk. It's very unsightly.
