1. Many of our faculty, staff and students (as well as others) have to cross 10th street to get to their parking lots behind Geology or the Fee Lane garage. Although there is a pedestrian crossing, most cars do not stop and it is difficult to cross. Also, when the buses are stopped, cars often pass on the left and come very close to hitting us. This has happened to me and many others many times. I was almost hit again yesterday. I believe that if the zone was better marked on the road or around the road and/or had flashing lights like some others around the campus, cars would be more prone to slow down and respect the rules. Last year, I contacted the IU Police Dept. who informed me that the street belonged to the city of Bloomington and that they would mention it to them. However, I never heard another word from them and the zone remains dangerous. Is there something that the school can do before someone gets seriously injured? We would all be very gratefulīŠ

East 7th Street

Case Date:

In the transition from Longview Ave. to E. 7th St., the asphalt multi-use lane turns into a double-wide cement sidewalk. I've always stayed on the path because it links directly to the underpass at the bridge and seems and extension of the bike path. But today someone told me, "Get off the sidewalk idiot!" I pride myself on following the rules of bicycling. AQm I right or wrong to be using that stretch of cement? Also, Smith Road between 3rd St. and Moore's Pike is a disaster for bicyclists--way too narrow to safely bike on the road, but only a cement sidewalk on the west side, which then vanishes to become a multi-use path on the WEST side of the road, which then vanishes again at the corner of Moore's Pike to become a sidewalk traveling west. How can my kids safely ride their bikes down Smith Road!?

In front of Hopscotch along the B-Line Trail at Morton and Dodds. The 4th and 5th bike rack posts down from the north side of the rack are very loose. The 4th one seems like it could be lifted out of the ground. It would be nice and more secure if these could be fixed. The entire rack should be assessed too.

100-182 North College Avenue

Case Date:

Hello, I am writing in concern of the spray painted orange bikes popping up around the city, especially regarding the square. These are a part of a marketing strategy for the new fitness gym around the College Mall, Orange Theory. My concern is that the locked bikes are taking the spaces on bike racks that could be used for commuters and patrons in particularly convenient and high-traffic areas. This includes bike racks around the square, in front of Yogi's, and there was even one locked to a pole around the Scholar's Inn Bakehouse on 3rd (which seems like another issue). I am hoping the city can possibly speak with Orange Theory about the placement of their marketing devices.

There is a problem when driving in a car going south on Palmer and approaching Allen St. Cars park too close to the corner to be able to see bicycles coming from the west. Please mark the corner for no parking.

Bloomington Rail Trail

Case Date:

There are constantly Kroger shopping carts obstructing the B-Line trail as the trail runs alongside the 2nd street Kroger. Can Kroger be asked to keep the trail clear? If these carts were in the road they would be taken care of.
