Employees in a security vehicle patrolling the Bline trail were smoking in the vehicle while driving through Switchyard Park. This seems like a lapse in oversight and resulted in negatively impacting the experience visiting the park.
There is a person passed out in this location
A couple of the street lights on the Polly Grimshaw east of SR 46 Trail and directly behind East Bay apartments are burned out.
All street lights on the Polly Grimshaw Trail east of Pete Ellis appears to be burned out. I just walked this trail this morning around 7:30 and thank goodness I had a light!
Many street lights along the Polly Grimshaw trail are no working. The westernmost 2, the one west of the intersection with PEte Ellis, and all of them east of Pete Ellis. Some have dark lenses, and some are broken. Thank you for keeping our trail nice.
The stop sign for trail users on the Bloomington Rail Trail is leaning pretty severely and is not visible for trail users. It's on the Bloomington Rail Trail, north side of Gordon Pike.
This morning at approximately 8:20, while I was riding a bicycle southbound on the B-Line trail over the Grimes Street bridge, I met a full-sized truck driving northbound on the B-Line Trail over the bridge. The truck was labeled Bloomington Parks and Recreation, and I spoke with the driver and passenger, who were staff members of the Parks and Recreation Department. The posted rules of the B-Line trail prohibit motorized vehicles. I am aware that we make exceptions for motorized wheelchairs, electric bicycles, electric scooters, and the small trucks used by security and parks maintenance staff. However, my opinion is that a full-sized truck is well outside the range of acceptable exceptions. A full-sized truck is less safe, provides less visibility for the truck driver to see walkers and others on the trail, blocks more of the trail width, and causes more wear on the trail surface. My opinion is that full-sized trucks should not be on the B-Line, when there are alternate routes available for a truck on public streets, and alternative vehicles available to use on the B-Line trail.
Can we do *anything* to address all the speeding on High Street? It's out of control! Some of those speeders are coming from Renwick. We have proven this. We are NOT A RACETRACK. We have children using that new path.
there are two trees across griffy creek trail past lanam trail, there maybe more but trail is too overgrown right now.
