I got a flat tire (bicycle) while riding in the bike lane on Rogers around 10th St. There is a lot of construction there so naturally there's a lot of debris on the road. Could you send a street sweeper vehicle there to clear the bike lanes? Thanks. J
The new building 'B-Line Heights" at the b-line and Rogers has recently constructed a short wall just next to Rogers, south east of the building itself. This new wall totally blocks the line of sight for both drivers and bicyclists, making the intersection at Rogers more dangerous.
I am very concerned about the cross walks on the B-line trail downtown. Cars are not stopping/yielding to people who are crossing. I was almost hit 3 times this week! And, I saw someone else almost get hit. Drivers of cars are not seeing the small sign that says yield State law that is posted in the middle of the cross walks. Can the city put in yield signs on the left of the crosswalks. We need more signage. It is very scary and I would not want anyone to get hurt. I know it is busy since students are back in town, but still people are not stopping and the city should make the signs more visible!
There is a walk way from Cascades Addition from near 651 Skyline Drive that goes into the Arlington Elementary School yard. I have tried but never have been able to find out who (school or city) is responsible for it. I think the school has cleared it out every year before school starts. Children from the neighborhood walk to school that way and people walk to Kroger or to the walking path and frisbee golf course at Arlington. Right now it is really overgrown and some people have come racing their bicycles and scooters out of it and almost hit us twice (they were young adults). There used to be posts on it so no one could do that or try to drive on it! Picture is From Skyline Dr. looking up (see cut off post). I think the posts need to be put back up and it definitely needs to be cleared on both sides of path from overgrowth.
The Walnut Street bike lane (starting around the intersection with 11th street) has been all torn up for quite some time now. When will this be repaired?
Would it be possible to get crosswalk lines painted on N. Oolitic Dr at West 11th St.?
Walnut street bike lane filled with debris. From around 10th street down towards 17th.
Dangerous crossing from Rogers School, High st. & 1st. Car never stop at the cross walk, need for more signalization, lights, and protected cross walk.
The North Washington Street bicycle lane from 12th to 10th street is significantly narrower than the 5 foot standard outlined in the City of Bloomington Bicycle Facility Design Guidelines document. In addition, vehicles parked along the west side of Washington street routinely occupy some portion of this bike lane, reducing the width even further. It seems to me that this stretch of road would be better suited for sharrow markings instead of the very narrow bike line that currently exists.
Howdy! Car parked in 3rd St bike lane near Fess Ave at 5:42 pm on 1/30/24. White Honda CRV License plate: Indiana 480RRE Thanks!
