There is a big piece of steel rebar sticking out of the sidewalk near the eastern entrance to 2427 E 2nd Street. It's become a safety issue for cars and pedestrian as many kids walk through there to get to the elementary school. Unsure if since it's an IU office if it's IU property? Thank you for investigating and potentially resolving.
I’m not sure what this is but it has left a large hole in the sidewalk. It’s off to the side so it doesn’t seem to be directly in the way of most foot traffic, but I figure it’s still a bit of a hazard. It appears to have half of a metal covering in it. It’s right outside the bluebird nightclub and that new Campus Craves place.
Lip too large for wheelchair on sidewalk in front of frat house at ne corner of seventh and Indiana
528 Park ridge road tripped on sidewalk. Horrible inaccessible deterioration at yellow house few houses North too. City needs to fix these or hold homeowners actually responsible if won't.
Unkept yard with poison ivy spilling on to sidewalk
Resident called in regarding a smithville fiber utility truck that parked on the lawn between the sidewalk and street. It left very large tire ruts. It is difficult to mow and should be repaired.
Addendum to #168572. Another tree-plot hazard is a house or two south of 514 S Fess and is near the next water meter south of the one I first reported. It is a hole 12 - 18 inches deep beside the sidewalk. The photo show that it is roughly the distance from my foot to mid-calf. Thanks.
When making a right turn into Winslow Sports Complex from South Highland Avenue, there is a large fir tree right on the corner. This tree blocks any view of pedestrians or bikers on the sidewalk directly behind the tree. This is a problem mainly for turning right rather than turning left into the area. I have personally had several incidents where we are turning into the area from the road and have had to stop unexpectedly to allow pedestrians to walk by. Although there is a small "caution" sign post there, it seems inadequate and unsafe regardless. My proposal is to cut down this large fir tree in order to create a safer environment for both drivers and pedestrians at this well-frequented corner.
At the South West corner of Indiana and Kirkwood-across from IU Sample Gates, and in front of IU memorabilia store, the handicap pedestrian ramp is completely deteriorated at the juncture with the road. My wife and I saw a man in a wheelchair nearly tip over, and fail repeatedly in trying to descend from sidewalk to cross street to campus. Two passerby's finally aided in his journey. It is very dangerous and unaccessible for handicapped folks.
