Sidewalk unusable, has been for years depending on season. Either it's mud covered areas or vegetation that blocks the ability to use. One more option exists and its when both happen at once. However, thank you for mowing, makes that corner usable.

If i reported every time a car was parked on b-line (daily) maybe someone would do something about it. Today around 2:45 or 3:00pm it was a city truck which i think had “856” on the side. When will you re-install the bollards at intersections?

This grate is directly in the lane a cyclist would use to travel west on Grimes between Henderson and Dunn Street. Last night a cyclist crashed his well-lit bicycle after encountering this grate in the dark road and with a short, barely visible, unmarked curb next to the depressed grate, he crashed his bike and was transported to the hospital by ambulance with severe injuries. The grate should be in the curb OR marked OR raised to the level of the road to improve the safety of cyclists. All cyclists swerve around this grate during the day, and it's a greater hazard at night.

There used to be a crosswalk across High Street connecting E Hunter Ave and the east side of High Street. When High Street was repaved recently, they covered the crosswalk, but evidence of it can still be seen on the east edge of High Street. Will that crosswalk be replaced? I used it frequently to get home. Thank you!

To Whom It May Concern, this is more of a recommendation than an problem. The pedestrian/bike crossing light on Allen St across Walnut is generally pretty good. Currently, there is a button to activate the lights on the sidewalks and wanted to suggest installing an additional button curbside for bikers. As it's currently constructed the median has two cut-outs so bicyclists can stay in the road (which is where we should be), but activating the light requires we ride up on the sidewalk. Most bikers, myself included, just keep an eye on the road to cross once traffic passes rather than hop the curb to activate the crossing light.
The problem arises when a driver decides to yield; it's a nice gesture, but with two lanes of traffic in both directions it isn't safe to cross unless drivers in both lanes decide to yield and it's difficult to see over the stopped car to make sure the second lane is clear. I tend to wave the driver who has yielded to indicate they should just keep going, Bloomington drivers being Bloomington drivers they defer to being polite.
A button positioned for bicyclists would make it clearer to both drivers and cyclists when it is safe to cross. This crossing point gets a fair amount of pedestrian and cycle traffic, but I don't think it is enough for a button to disrupt car flow on Walnut.
