Bike lanes. Got some eletric other power bikes going way to fast in bike lanes. is this ok
The bike lane in front of the old AMC College Mall and going down College Mall Rd. is covered in wash-out, gravel, debris, which makes cyclists have to utilize the road rather than the bike lane.
northbound bike lane on rogers between 8th st and b line (part of the detour). i found a CBU detour sign partially blocking this bike lane and i carried it down to their construction site at the b line. then i encountered this storm drain, which is at least 3 inches below grade, from poor milling practices when the road was resurfaced last year. these partial obstructions make the bike lane more technically demanding than it should be. not a fair substitute for the all-ages all-abilities b line.
There are lots of fallen tree "gum balls" in the 7-Line between Lincoln and Grant.
The 3rd street bicycle lane adjacent to the IU campus has been massively improved with the newly installed barriers! This section of the commute takes me 3 fewer minutes to bicycle on now that drivers don't block the bicycle lane. Biking in this lane feels so much safer and more comfortable with the barriers up, especially since considering drivers tend to go pretty fast on this road. Also, the barriers don't look like an eyesore at all, which is something I previously read that IU officials were concerned about. The barriers blend into the background enough to not be garish, but they are still clearly visible to drivers and cyclists. Honestly they're pretty stylish for bicycle lane barriers. As a bicycle commuter, even small-scale projects like this make me feel cared about by the city. It makes me glad to be a Bloomingtonian! Laissez le B-Town rouler!
Neighbor at 2909 E Winston Street is cutting down an oak tree in the right of way.
In the bike lane on the east side of Kingston near the old Marsh store, there is a large piece of what looks like fiberglass insulation over the storm grate blocking both the grate and the bike lane. Thanks for checking on it!
Pedestrian traffic light at the corner of S Rockport and S Rogers is totally blocked by overhanging branches. Across from the Citgo gas station.
Why is all traffic being dangerously rerouted through residential neighborhoods on the east side from the construction?
