The lights on light pole #150 on the north end of the B-line are out. It looks like someone may have interfered with the wiring to that pole.
Bicyclists, skateboarders who pass walkers unannounced, catching.walkers off guard and nearly grazing them. Some shout "Passing on the left", which I always acknowledge. But, too few do so. I suggest signs along trails to affirm and require this simple act of trail etiquette. We are frequent walkers on the B-line and we think Switchyard Park is a wonderful addition to Bloomington. Thank you.
Copious graffiti in the 7th st. underpass, some of which is offensive. Please do consider adding it to the clean-up to-do list.
fallen tree at the entrance to rca trail by starview lane, 2 spots with trail blocked by fallen trees
I'm not sure this is encroachment on the Rail Trail but it's fairly close. This is about .5 mile south of Tapp Rd.
Poison ivy is growing into the walking and bike lane all along Southdowns. This is a hazard to people walking, children, and pets who will transfer the oils to their owners.
Complaint of vegetation blocking sight lines where the Clear Creek Trail crosses W. That Rd. as well as where Clear Creek Trail crosses Victor Pike. He said the vegetation needs to be cut back further from the road to provide a better line of sight line for both pedestrians and cars.
This mileage sign for walkers heading northwest on the Clear Creek Trail is totally unreadable. It is across from the hopscotch court on the little learning trail just south of That Road. Cheap to replace! I think it is meant to mark 0.5 mile point from the roundabout where CCT intersects with the Bloomington Rail Trail. We walkers like to know how far we’ve traveled! FYI the pavers under several of the benches on the trail are loose and could also use some work.
Case #179848 is marked closed and labeled as resolved though it never was. Problem is still a problem and has been since originally reported. People traveling east bound are forced to use wrong side of trail if they don't want muddy shoes, slip or fall as they walk or run. Also, people on bikes or using strollers traveling east bound use wrong side of trail because of risks due to poor maintenance. Then, those traveling west bound, walking running or riding have routinely been forced off trail towards Moores Pike (very narrow grassy seperation there) or have a head on collision with those using wrong side of trail. Please remove silt, mud, gravel, etc. Please dig out a channel so it can drain properly in the future. Thank you.
