Smith Avenue bike lane filled with gravel; between Walnut and Washington. Most of the gravel is near the Smith/Washington intersection. It looks like the gravel is constantly washing out from the adjacent gravel parking lot.

I'm very concerned about the new surfacing on E. 3rd by the State, but I know the City supported it. I know there was not going to be a physical barrier at this point but did think the bike lanes would at least by wide. Please please make sure they are wider than the ones on N. Smith or very very few will feel safe using them. I supported the project as thought it would give me a biking option, but I'm fearful now it'll just be slimmer roads and no real bikable upgrade. Thanks for any input you can give the State!

The storm sewer grate at the end of Olive St where it intersects with Hillside Dr is installed so that the holes are parallel to the direction of travel, and thus bicycle wheels can fall into them. Best practices for safe infrastructure should install them facing the other direction.

Sidewalk/path ends. I have to cross the street twice to avoid it. Please develop the path more soon...

121 N Pete Ellis Dr, Bloomington, IN 47408, USA
- Case Date:
- 11/6/2023
There are some new safety concerns since the "Relato" building opened next to the multi-use path between Pete Ellis and the bypass on 7th Street.
First, there's a conflict point where the garage exits to 7th street. Cars are already pulling quickly across the path towards the street, while bike traffic doesn't necessarily slow for the blind corner of the garage exit either.
I've included a photo of a location where this is handled better. This is from the new development on the old K-Mart lot which also has a garage that immediately crosses a bike path. At that location, green boxes with white chevrons appear where the bike and car traffic cross, indicating to both parties that it's a conflict point.
------
The second safety concern is where the multi-use path takes right-angle turn around the corner of the Relato. This used to be an empty field with great sight lines and now those sight lines are blocked.
At this corner I have already seen what could have been a couple near collisions due to the shortened sight lines.
A treatment that could help here would be what was done at the right angle turn going into the bypass underpass tunnel-- Add a solid center line going around the corner to indicate that parties in both directions should stay in their lane going around the corner. I feel that treatment has made the underpass corner safer and I think it would help signal safer behavior here, too.
Thanks!
