The north-west Conner of the metal plate sticks up enough that I could cause a bike rider a problem if they didn’t spot it…say at night.

We don’t have any crosswalks for several blocks in either direction, and there are many families with young children who live in the immediate vicinity. We have a lot of traffic coming north off the bridge that are driving way too fast, and it’s extremely dangerous to cross the street here. With talk of adding curbs and repairing the sidewalk at my property, 1107 N Madison, I suggest putting a crosswalk over Madison st, on the south side of 15th. (Photo above). I regularly witness vehicles, both emergency workers and civilians, driving so fast that It is incredible dangerous to cross the street, even for an adult. A bump up crosswalk, like is being Installed on the new 17th/vernal pike, would go a long way towards slowing vehicles down and making them more aware of their surroundings. Even without a bump out sidewalk, a marked crosswalk is absolutely needed. Please respond to talk more about it!

The pavement in the northbound lane of Eagleson just south of the Eagleson/3rd Street intersection is slanted, bumpy, and uneven, and almost caused me to wreck my bicycle in front of oncoming traffic. Are there plans in the works to repair the sinking/uneven portion of the roadway? Thank you. (The pavement on Eagleson between Hunter and Atwater is also sinking, but I can avoid that by riding my bicycle in the left lane.)

The City needs to find a better way to keep the 7th Street bike path clear for cyclists. On Wednesday, July 13, 2022, around 9:25pm I was biking with a group of cyclists. We were headed east on 7th Street in the bike lane. As we crossed College and headed towards Walnut, every single cyclist had to exit the bike lane and ride in the lanes of traffic because a pickup truck was going in reverse down the bike lane. The truck had its white backup lights on and was moving from Walnut back towards College, fully in the bicycle lane blocking both lanes of bicycle travel. This is classic Bloomington infrastructure. Poorly designed, used incorrectly, and the people it is meant to benefit are no better off.

There is a "cave in" on the sidepath along Monroe St. It is 45 inches in diameter and 17 inches deep. Looking through an opening you can see that it is hollow underneath. Stand alone pavement was supporting the weight of bicyclists and pedestrians before it caved in. This sidepath is on a long steep hill that Some cyclists are may descend at great speed. The "cave in" is hard to see by a cyclist approaching it. This is an extremely dangerous situation. Yellow cones should be placed around it as soon as possible.

It would be really great to see sidewalks and bike paths leading into University Elementary School. Right now the only option is walking alongside the edge of 10th street, hoping fast moving traffic doesn't hit you.

The city never cleared the snow from the bicycle lane after the January storm. As a direct consequence, the melting piles of snow left mounds of debris when they melted – similar to glacial till. Please clear the debris from the bicycle lanes on N. College Avenue and N. Walnut Street, which has been there for nearly 3 weeks now.
