There is a damaged sidewalk with a large crack and significantly uneven surfaces causing a tripping hazard. Many less severe problem spots on sidewalks in the neighborhood have been fixed in the last 1-2 years, but this one was not. Thank you for the attention.
Sidewalk and driveway entrance concrete is torn up and needs to be repaired. My wife is blind and just walking in front of our house is dangerous for her and anyone walking by.
We recently had a tree removed from the spot shown, as well as having a tree trimmed on the other side of our driveway. The tree that was removed was rotted out as it was deemed unsafe. We moved to this location in 2019 with a new baby on the way. Fast forward 2 years and just after the tree was removed by the City of Bloomington, our now 2 y/o plays in front of our house and has now fallen multiple times because of the drop off on the sidewalk due to the tree roots that have lifted the sidewalk. Additionally, small animals have now made this area their home. This is the same problem on the opposite side of our driveway by the electrical boxes due to overgrown root systems of trees that were frankly too large to plant in there specific spots.The lift in the sidewalk from the tree roots has caused a major trip/fall hazards that are at least a 6in drop. Please advise.
Sidewalk is sinking and cracked
Sidewalk is raised about 5-6 inches by tree root, making it dangerous for pedestrians and individuals with walkers or wheelchairs. This is on the north side of East Canada drive at 2519.
The sidewalk contruction on E Winslow Rd has been going on since winter. The project has more says with no one working on it than working on it. today I saw only 4 men on the whole project and none of them were doing any work at 11 AM. Lots of road projects in Bloomington are started and then left abandoned for months. As a resident I don't like this. If they start something they ought to work on it till finished then move on. Im frustrated with the disruption that has been going on for 7 months for a very small project.
The sidewalk is damaged on The Stands Dr. across from Autumn Drive ever since the city removed a street tree at that location.
Damaged sidewalk is a trip hazard
I had previously filled issue 180907. The contractor has not contacted me regarding repair of the damaged sidewalk due to fiber installation. Could you please urge the contractor to remedy the damage to my cement pad. When they installed the fiber, they lifted the cement pad so it is no longer even with the sidewalk making it a tripping hazard.
To Paul Regarding Report #181821. The area is the cement pad between the two trees between the sidewalk and street. The contractors undermined the area under the cement pad and used heavy machinary lifting the cement pad and using heavy machine causing a trip and safety hazard causing an elevation in the cement pad. Attached is a picture. I believe the contractor needs to repair this safety hazard.
