Difficult to cross the road at the bus stop. Cars do not slow down. Needs public light for more visibility of the pedestrian.
Very difficult and dangerous to cross the road when getting on or off the bus mostly during rush hour and when the sun is down. Public light is a bit far from the cross walk. Cars are going fast in that area and don't stop for pedestrians.

Sidewalk unshoveled & unsalted in front of daycare center.
After making a purchase (at 11:41:55am 1/10/25 according to the receipt) at World Foods Market I left and continued on foot to Kroger. Before reaching the corner with Walnut street I slipped and fell on the the sidewalk north of World Food Market's west parking lot, next to where they park their van. Some of their sidewalk is very well cleared, but the part north of the west parking lot is inadequately treated (and the sidewalk to the west of the west parking lot, as well).
The hair salon businesses located near 1025 S Walnut St would benefit from a bike rack. The owners of the salons expressed interest in the rack but were unsure of landlord support for a rack. The location is ideal for a rack as it is near the B-line and bike boulevard on Allen.
The Hawthorne -Weatherstone path is still entirely unplowed. The giant pile of snow at one end was reduced but it is still entirely impassable on a bike. I reported this a week ago and nothing has been done. https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=200058
The light at the Olson Elementary crosswalk is turning red about every 60 seconds even when there are no pedestrians. It seems like it needs to be reset. Usually it only turns red when someone pushes the crosswalk button.
Trees next to the bike/ped path have low-hanging branches that need to be trimmed so they don’t hit people in the face.
