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.
Debris, sand, gravel in both W 3rd bike lanes. Some parts are worse than others but the entire stretch from adams to I69 is a mess
The sidewalk and bike lane (especially) are in need of repair. It is difficult and dangerous to bike with so many holes, loose gravel and uneven surfaces on N. Smith Road between Morningside and 10th Streets, Bloomington.
Our family frequently walks from Park Ridge Park to Park Ridge East Park, crossing at Morningside and Smith. It NEVER feels safe to do so there. Cars on N Smith zoom through at times without slowing and rush you even if they do temporarily pause. We had another close call today. Please enhance this intersection for both pedestrian and bicycle (our family does both here) safety. For an intended crossing, the Smith cars assume they have a bigger more important road and don't pay attention to the signs. Maybe a flasher, more prominent crosswalk sign planted or painted, just something please. It's like this every time and has been for years.
