Biking & Walking

Case Date:
3/22/2023

The bike lane near 250 S Washington St is constantly blocked with cars temporarily parked there. This is an established bike route home from campus/downtown to the Bryan Park neighborhood and I now constantly feel unsafe having to pull out into busy traffic to accommodate drivers of vehicles who are too lazy to find an actual parking place. This has been a chronic issue for months and I would appreciate if this stretch could be monitored/tickets given out, or some other solution so that I can once again feel safe as a bicycle commuter on that route.

Smith Rd between 3rd and 10th has a lot of debris in the south bound bike lane. Not sure if this is city or county area.

250 S Washington ST

Case Date:
3/7/2023

There are regularly cars stopped/parked in the bike lane on Washington between 4th and 3rd st's. Also further south between 3rd and 2nd st's. There is no signage saying cars can't park there, and there is certainly no enforcement of this law. I have hit cars, been hit by cars, been cussed at, yelled at and threatened by motorists parked in the bike lane here while I'm just trying to go home from work via bicycle. As a bicycle commuter who uses this bike lane 6 days/week, I would like to see some action taken to stop cars from parking/stopping/driving in the bike lane(s), especially here. I have a dozen or so photos with date and time of cars parked in the bike lane here that I can share if you'd like. Thank you

The bike lanes on N. Smith Road are often filled with road debris and yard waste. The west lane going uphill from 10th Street to Morningside is currently in bad, almost unusable shape. Additionally, there are often trash bins left in the lane for several days after the Wednesday trash pick up day.

Longview was the best (or one of) greenways for biking, and really the only one from east side to downtown. But for probably two years now? the construction by Best Buy has clogged that up. When will that finally finish? I assume a construction requirement is that they make a nice Greenway for biking again? I'm concerned the traffic there will make it much more dangerous than it was so hoping the City has thought that complex/bike path through.

1930 E 7th ST

Case Date:
2/23/2023

This street is part of the 7 line and yet doesn’t have any traffic demarcation. Needs lane/yellow lines and white bike symbols. This was needed 4 years ago. They are completely gone now leading people to believe it is a one way street. This street (all of 7th, on campus) is part of the city’s green initiative and alternative transportation effort. thanks!

315 W Gordon PIKE

Case Date:
2/19/2023

Bike lanes on both sides of the road are covered with rocks, sand, debris. I am a full time bike computer and use this to travel from Walnut Street Pike to Rogers on a daily basis. Both sides of Rhorer and Gordon Pike need swept from Walnut Street Pike down to Rogers Road.

839 S Sheridan Rd, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:

Will there be crosswalks installed at the intersection of E Maxwell Lane and Sheridan Road? As it is, the intersection is extra-wide, making it more dangerous than the average intersection for pedestrians. Crosswalks would help.

The bike lane on 7th approaching the IMU is a real big problem. This afternoon is took me 20 minutes to go one block from 7th to IMU parking because there is NO MORE BUS lane. I think the bike lane needs to be removed. I was shocked at the slowness of the traffic. It also causes problems on the adjacent streets. This was not thought out clearly and needs to be fixed.

1001 E 10th St, Bloomington, IN 47405, USA

Case Date:

After surveying several members of the Collins LLC, which is located on tenth street, a lot of us feel like a bike lane being constructed along most of tenth street would make the road much safer for pedestrians and cyclists while also improving connectivity between several crucial parts of the IU Campus: the Wells Library, the Luddy School of Informatics, the Kelley School of Business, and other key transportation points of the university that generate a lot of traffic. I feel that this route would benefit greatly from a bike lane that could help moderate the speeds of car traffic and provide more opportunities for a multimodal transportation system, making transportation more equitable and comfortable for those outside of a car.
