The Northside of the street - sidewalk on Moores Pike, East of S. Fenbrook LN has alot of brush and trees grown up making the already narrow and close to the street walkway very dangerous with the amount and speed of traffic. Could the city either clean up the walkway or have the property owner responsible open this area up to increase pedestrian safety.
Raised sidewalk edge. Tilting sidewalk
Sidewalk between 3506 and 3508 is broken due to heavy city trucks using easement.
Neighbor that is mobile with a wheelchair has to go in the street to walk their dog due to inaccessible curbs and sidewalks across Allendale Drive and neighborhood. This is dangerous for the individual, bikes, pedestriabs and cars.
In front of Upland Restaurant, sunflower plant is blocking the entire sidewalk and one of the parking meters. Please ask them to fix this!
Individual continues to park silver mustang on lawn, despite plenty of room in their driveway and on street. This is not a permit parking neighborhood, either.
Sidewalks have remained unshoveled since the first snowfall of the year. There is heavy pedestrian traffic on the portion of their sidewalk along Allendale. Failure to shovel that section is particularly hazardous. There are also several roughly 6" deep holes immediately adjacent to the sidewalk here which present a tripping hazard or potential ankle sprain. They are currently hard to see because of the snow.
Sidewalk sticks up at least 2 inches and is cracked. Very dangerous.
I am writing this about the sidewalk area in front of the White House Flower Shop located off of E Winslow Rd. I am a mother with a toddler child and no vehicle so it is necessary for me to use the sidewalks as my child rides in a stroller. I live in Winslow Ridge Townhomes and have to walk to or from there to Henderson St to be able to catch Bloomington Transit. There has been several instances lately that traveling on the sidewalk is nearly impossible with all the snow on the sidewalk. I can appreciate that Henderson Court Apt and Winslow Ridge Townhomes have been able to keep the remaining snow to a minimum, but outside of the White House Flower Shop is always a mess. This morning as I left my home with my child I was forced to pull my stroller backwards through the snow because pushing it led nowhere. On my return home at around 5p.m., after picking up some groceries, I was not able to get through the snow which forced me to have to walk in the street with my toddler in his stroller.
Workers grinding the sidewalk are generating significant clouds of silica dust. Silica-generating grinding operations are supposed to be controlled by water or vacuum. The vacuum systems they are using are clearly ineffective. This is clear if you watch them work, it's also clear if you examine a recently ground section of sidewalk. Significant concrete dust remains on the sidewalk surface because the vacuum isn't picking it up. The city is substituting a respiratory hazard for a trip hazard. I don't want to get these guys in trouble, but would appreciate if the city would ensure they're using water or effective vacuum controls.
