Hello, I'd like to suggest that the city pave the Bloomington Rail Trail connecting the B-Line to Clear Creek Trail. This would make it much safer and better for bicyclists (especially commuters). Currently, the gravel is too deep in some places and not present at all in others. Also, some of the posts at the entrace to the Rail Trail after crossing roads are too close together for a bike with a trailer to safely maneuver. This is especially true when crossing S Rogers near Baywood Drive. We broke our bike trailer there.
If you park in the handicapped parking off Henderson, near the handicap playground, and cross the bridge to the trail that leads to Woodlawn, there is a small hole in that pavement just past the bridge. It's big enough to catch my front walker wheel. Until the other day I always managed to notice it and avoid it, but that day falling leaves had hidden it, and I forgot all about it. Until, that is, my walker wheel fell into it. Fortunately, I managed not to fall and was able to continue walking, but my bones break very easily. I beg you to fill this little hole. As I said, it's just past the bridge, on the way to the walking trail. Thank you.
Hi - This structure was built directly on the path that connects Henderson and Walnut. It does not appear to be safe or legal for people to live here.
Even on trails where there is no room for social distancing, maybe half the people there wear no masks--and no surprise, because the city has not posted a sign at the park to say to do so. I've reported this by phone to no avail. Does the city even care if people wear masks? Why is so little done to encourage it? Why do so many city workers work close to each other, often close to people out walking, without masks?
RCA park dirt perimeter trail has trees blocking trail in different areas, mostly along southern and western edges. From Star View entrance, go clockwise on trail to just past Northwest corner.
Bags of trash were left on trail near Star View entrance of RCA park. They are across trail from sign about old roads.

Car broken into in Clear Creek Trail at Church Lane on Sunday, 3/26 at 2:15 pm. Two thieves, a man and a woman, smashed our drivers door window in the crowded lot, with people coming and going constantly. The sheriff told us this happens constantly in this lot. The escalation of crime in this lot needs deterrence. Why not put up cameras in the lot? Before someone is hurt, I believe cameras would deter these bold thefts before they escalate into robberies or worse.
Please review this article: https://www.heraldtimesonline.com/story/news/2023/03/30/falling-tree-kills-2-indianapolis-kids-parents-take-action/70055144007/ in today's HT regarding trees, limbs, etc., on trails. Although I'm so pleased with the work done on the Clear Creek and Limestone Trails during the year, during my bike ride yesterday, I noticed several vines, etc., that looked like they were about to fall off a tree. Not sure how you handle maintenance, but wanted to make you aware. If your staff takes a slow ride along the trail as they do from Country Club, they'll see what I'm sharing. Thank you.
