I would like to request a sidewalk ramp / crossing be installed at the SE corner of Walnut St Pike and Winslow. It looks like there has previously been an accident there and now there is a concrete barricade and guard rail preventing the pedestrians from crossing. So either the pedestrian has to make a somewhat dangerous crossing there, or cross three extra times to go around and back. Thank you! Michelle Giansante
Damaged guardrail on culvert side of street. Can be seen from google maps. I first reported this situation last summer (2016) and was advised city was awaiting contract and materials. I reported it because I feel it could become a safety hazard during the winter months with slick and icy streets.
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.
Honeysuckle and other vegetation on the south side of E. 2nd St. is obstructing part of the sidewalk for a block or so east of Woodscrest Dr.
The speed limit between I-69 and the first traffic circle to the east on Tapp road has been 30MPH since I've lived here. There has been road construction on this road for 10 yrs. Finally it appears that improvements are over. I am asking that the speed limit be increased to 40 mph. There is nothing on that road warranting such a low speed limit and it only serves to be a speed trap. I literally have to use my brakes or 2nd gear to drive slow enough on the hills to keep it at 30 mph. The speed limit on North Walnut north of 17th st is 40mph and there are businesses on that road. Please review this and hopefully end the speed trap and make driving more enjoyable. Thanks
The part of the curb on the West side of Sare Rd, as showed in the picture, protrudes into the lane unexpectedly and narrows it. As you can see it has black tire marks and the cement is chipped as well – indicating that cars hot the curb all the time. We walk or run there every day and this is an accident waiting to happened. A few days ago, as we were walking along, an SUV hit the curb, right there, and continued to weave for 50 yards. If it had jumped the curb we would have been hit. Generally speaking the walking path is too close to the road and a guard rail should be installed between the Hyde Park Village and at least to Spicewood.
Neighbor has a new asphalt "ramp"to driveway blocking water runoff. I definitely understand the need for the ramp. However,could there be a way to open up a small channel through it? This photo of the standing water was taken on Sunday - 48 hours after the last rain. There was already a tendency for debris and muck to accumulate there before this. Thanks for any help.
At 300 N. Walnut at the intersection of Walnut and 7th St, a piece of sidewalk is missing as you can see in the picture. This has been missing for quite sometime. Please fix this.
Curb cuts are too high and too hard to get a wheelchair over. Photo (can't attach 2) attached (on the corner of SE corner of both Sare and E. Moores Pike (both directions). Can you let me know if these will be on any kind of list
Hello! I work at WonderLab Science Museum. We were wondering what would be needed to improve a curb that is on the west side of our building in the front. It goes into an alley that school buses use. Bus drives have a very difficult time getting in without hitting the curb. This curb also has an accessibility ramp that does not line up with the rest of the side walk on 4th street going west (due to the entrance to the parking garage of the neighboring residence). The curb cut is currently closer to the alley way than on the corner of the sidewalk. We would like the ramp to moved to the corner of the curb for accessibility and bus movement. An oversized cut on that corner would be ideal. Thank you!
