Biking & Walking

Case Date:
8/9/2017

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

B-Line Trl

Case Date:
8/19/2017

I wasn't sure what category to put this in... do city employees know that the B-Line is a pedestrian and bike path? Because a city truck (actual full sized truck, not a parks gator) was just driving north on the b-line (i saw near Dodds). I figured it was a student or freshman parent and was going to stop them and then it ended up being a city vehicle. It was definitely on purpose because she had the opportunity to turn onto Dodds. Can even our B-Line not be safe from cars?

Case Date:

Caller has witnessed many people ignoring the stop sign at the corner of Clarizz and Buick Cadillac Dr. Because some children cross at that intersection walking to Binford-Rogers, she wonders about putting in a pedestrian crossing signal or crosswalk.

900-998 North Fess Avenue

Case Date:
9/10/2017

Fess is a good bike route, but the pavement in this area is so deteriorated that it is dangerous. This is especially true under the railroad overpass because the sudden change from light to shadow makes it almost impossible to see the defects in the pavement.

Case Date:
9/12/2017

Just past Woodlawn in the Southdowns bicycle/pedestrian lane the is a ~10x3 foot asphalt patch probably covering some utility work. The north side of has opened a 2 inch gap in which grass is growing. This makes 10 foot long slot and the front wheel of my bike got caught in the slot causing me to fall this morning. I was not injured but this slot is a clear hazard.

Biking & Walking

Case Date:
9/26/2017

Debris on sidewalk: Malibu and/or Opie Taylors dump waste water out their back door, in the alley on the back/eastside of the building. It runs down the alley, and across and down the sidewalk. I've meant to complain many times over the winters when it's created ice. Today it is a slick sludge of wet leaves that was slippery even though I was super aware and careful.
