Vandalism found at the north trailhead of the B-Line on the morning of 7/20/17. Blue spray paint on the limestone block and pavement.
I am becoming very concerned with the increasing homeless population on the B-Line Trail. The trail is no different than the parks out of which they are being removed. It's interesting that they get to use the same city services when they don't pay taxes. They often monopolize the public spaces, thus adversely impacting the availability for those who pay taxes and responsibility use the city services. The City of Bloomington needs to begin worrying about its taxpaying citizens, not the homeless.
Hello, I left a message for the Marketing person in Parks and Rec last week asking for permission to use a photo of the B-Line or Clear Creek trail. Just following up to see if someone can assist. Thank you. Mique Van Vooren ______________________________ Mique Van Vooren Communications Specialist University Human Resource Services Indiana University 812-856-4102
Large poison ivy is growing at the entrance to the rails to trails path. Specifically, it is on the fence on the East side/corner of the parking lot, along the sidewalk - growing out, towards the sidewalk. I know what it is (and to avoid it), but not everyone would. Could it be sprayed to kill it? (One time when I think the weed is worse than the poison needed to remove it!) Thank you.
To whom it may concern, We are thinking about buying a property in The Stands that borders the Goat Farm property and the Jackson Creek Trail. I was wondering what the rules and regulations, if any, are for building a trail on our property that would connect with the park property. Any information you can give would be appreciated. Thanks so much, Allison Stites 773-304-6832
I am a runner who parks at the Grimes/Patterson/Bike Garage trail head and runs south on the B-line most every day. Today for the first time after work (5:45-6:30pm) that parking lot was 90% full. Everyone who I observed coming and going from the parking lot had a gym bag and went in to Crossfit rather than using the trail. It seems like Crossfit as a commercial venture should have to secure its own parking for its patrons rather than allowing them to park for free in the trailhead lot to the detriment of trail users. Is it possible you may speak to the Crossfit owners or put up signage there before the students come back and it gets worse? Thank you for letting me know about this, in case there is nothing to be done and I need to find somewhere new to run.
I was walking along the B-Line Trail yesterday when I spotted a patch of dodder about 75 sq. ft. in area. It was located at light no. 32, in the Switchyards. This stuff is terrible once it gets going, but if you contain it now you'll save yourselves an awful lot of heartache in the future. If you need additional info, feel free to call me at 812.929.1513. Thanks for all you do, and all best wishes. John Linnemeier
There is excessive growth on the walking/biking trail that starts in Park Ridge and follows the train tracks behind Woodbridge apartments. The section that goes between park ridge and pete ellis along the tracks is the worst. It is difficult to bike the trail.
pull-up bars on B-Line at Allen Street were fixed the day after I reported it. Thank You! Please repair the parallel bars at Bryan Park, (northwest end). These bars have been in disrepair for years. I know several others who use the exercise equipment routinely. Best regards.
