Customer called in to Parks and Recreation office complaining about shrubbery on the B-Line trail blocking the yellow flashing light warning drivers of bikers. He did not want to write in a complaint, insisted I do it, because he is a senior and he wanted to report the issue via his landline.
B-line trail LED lamps #'s 117, 133, and 135 are not working.
There is a VERY large and odd bulge in the metal framework of the B-line Trail's Grimes Street bridge. It is visible on the bridge, on the right hand side (east side), as one passes northward. Seems to be a significant structural defect.
The pump at the bike repair station by Bloomingfoods on the B-Line is broken. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that until I had lost too much air trying to fit the pump on.
Why is the porta-potty gone from the parking lot at the That Road?
On Saturday evening, I was running on the Renwick Trail that connects Moores Pike to Sare Road. On the trail, a man was repeatedly driving a moped with children on the back of the moped. The trail, I believe, is intended only for cyclists, runners, and walkers, not for motorized vehicles, though there is no sign overtly prohibiting such use. The trail is winding and narrow and it was getting dark, making it very dangerous for this moped to drive through the trail. Several runners had to step off the trail to avoid the vehicle. I confronted the man about the issue, telling him it was not safe, but he was resistant, saying if I showed him a sign he would stop. I suspect he intends to ride the trail again. I request that, assuming such use of the trail is prohibited, a sign for the trail and for the police to keep an eye out for this man on his moped to keep the trail safe. Thank you.
Visiting from erie,pa. Parents live here & I will relocate here after retirement. Enjoy walking trails. So much. Have encountered horses x2 on clear creek trail between that rd. Not hard 2 ascertain from where the horses come from. Who is liable if accident/incident occurs? Rules of trails clearly posted. My 10lb lhasa apso is harnessed securley on lead but was very spooked by horses & horses were not happy either by their obvious reactions. My little dog & I had no where 2 go but off in brush @ side of trail. Again, who is liable if someone gets hurts????It will happen. Horses & wrong dog,place & time someone is gonna b hurt.
It would be great if you would add an additional garbage can towards the south end of the B-Line trail (near Country Club Rd), you have to walk/bike/run nearly a mile before coming to a garbage can.
Dear Friends, I am writing to report a dog attach incident this morning about 9:05 Am on the North Shore Trail in the Griffey Lake Nature Preserve. I was walking on the trail and was approached by two unleashed dogs. The owner arrived and said the dogs were unleashed because he didn't think there were other people on the trail. One of the dogs, which looked German Shepherd like, approached me from the side and bit my right calf. The bite broke the skin. He said he was sorry and walked on. I didn't get his name, because I wanted to leave the scene because I was concerned about being bitten again. There was a single car parked on the trail head, a Pontiac Grand Am GT with an Indiana License plate 719CA2. I believe, but am not certain, that this was the dog owner's vehicle. I looked but didn't find any park personnel after the incident. My phone number is 812 345 7429 if I can provide any additional information. Sincerely, Brian O'Donnell 602 South Rose Avenue Bloomington, IN 47401
There's a section of the paved path in the low part of the Rev Butler park that is totally blocked by leaning and fallen trees and grapevines. They make the path impassable. Thanks for looking into this.
