The metal drain cover in front of Mother Bear's at 1428 E Third Street has fallen in (again). It clearly is not stable and one day someone may trip over it.

FYI, the only person complaining so far about speed bumps on the PRE greenway plans can easily have ZERO humps by taking Park Ridge Road home at minimally increased distance, or maximum ONE if taking Morningside.
Why haven’t you installed pedestrian crossing lines and signals yet? You’ve known about this for so long. I was nearly hit crossing with the light on foot just today. Cars in every direction had to adjust to seeing a pedestrian crossing, they all wanted to drive where I was crossing. Do something now! Tens of thousand of students are coming, always dangerous for pedestrians. Someone will get hurt with students never looking for people on foot when they’re trying to figure out where they’re going, turning, beating yellow lights, turning on red, etc. PLEASE!
Audible crosswalk button is not working at SW corner of 3rd and Walnut, in front of county early voting location.
Some of the tree branches along 3rd St. at IU are encroaching on the headspace of the bikes, and the bikers were mostly in the car traffic and unable to safely ride in the bike lane provided.
See closed case #184736: in front of Mother Bear's on E Third Street. The metal drain cover on the sidewalk again has fallen in and is a tripping hazard for pedestrians. Maybe it is time to look for a more permanent solution rather than just putting it back in its place.
Referring to case #183807 (May 14, 2023): Query the status of the orange safety barrier on S High Street near the intersection of High and E Wimbleton, which has been there for ages and is an eyesore. Maybe it is time to remind Duke Energy that they are supposed to do the work they need to do, so that the barrier finally can be removed.
Drainage grate partial removal on 10th at west side of rogers. I often pass over this grate on a bike when entering the b line after going down the big hill on rogers (southbound) and if i didnt notice this, i would literally die. Not sure if the trades district garage workers removed it or aome equipment tore it up or what but yowza!! YOW!! ZA!!
Hello. I'm writing about the East-West Greenway on Bloomington's east side. Biking toward Park Ridge East Park there is a hump and a curve in route. Great biking route but cars are a bit quick. I read there is some new traffic calming initiative? I don't know what that involves but if a Greenway improvement could happen with a bump in those two spots it would be amazing. I appreciated new humps are going into Park Ridge along the same route east of campus and Pete Ellis, so having that all the way through would be a big safety plus for us. Thank you.
With it getting dark earlier I have extra concerns with traffic speed in my neighborhood now while walking. Please prioritize residential traffic calming. Thank you.
