There light out on 1789 kinser pike we don’t know why
I am emailing on behalf of a fraternity property at Indiana University-Bloomington. Sigma Alpha Epsilon has 6 parking light poles which are not auto-illuminating as they should at night. I've contacted Duke Energy, and I was told to contact the City of Bloomington Utilities as your office would need to initiate some form of a service request to have them turned on. Again, this property is on IU's campus. Therefore, I'm trying to determine who is the proper entity, office and/or person to contact. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Street light on the NW corner of Woodlawn & Hunter is out. There are no other street lights on Woodlawn between Atwater & 2nd St even thought its sidewalks are heavily used by women leaving the campus in the dark to walk to the free parking lot east of Bryan Park. The dark sidewalk on the west side seems especially unsafe in the dark due to the large shrubbery that grows next to that sidewalk at several locations.
Street light at the end of Hollywood and Kerry has glass shot out and the street light at the end of Hollywood and Staats has the top dangling and glass broken out with birds residing in the lamp. Please fix.
The building light on the LEFT side of the North entrance to City Hall is on the fritz, the left side as you face the doors from Morton.
A street light is needed at this intersection for pedestrian safety.
In response to uReport case #178550, if the property owner has had to repeatedly paint over graffiti, then perhaps the built environment could be examined to see if any improvements could be made that would benefit the property owner as well as residents. A walk down that street at night reveals pitch black darkness. There is a light at the T intersection of Fairview and 11th, but the illumination does not reach around the bend in Fairview. The property has a light in their lot which actually causes the sidewalk on Fairview to be even darker in contrast. It has never felt safe as a pedestrian or cyclist but that can be remedied by personal use of lights. However, having the street illuminated could help to make it less hospitable for delinquent behavior as well as the wonderful bonus of increased safety for non-motorist travelers. Lastly, vehicles regularly speed down the decline on 11th, fail to stop at the stop sign, and continue around the bend on Fairview. I would think that increased illumination would be helpful to those motorists who are already driving recklessly. Thank you.
The street light between 2528 and 2538 S. Buttonwood Ln has not been turned on since the AT&T lined their fiber internet line in the neighborhood.
The streets and sidewalks are very dark when the sun goes down. I am requesting street lamps are put in place to protect those walking home from campus or the bars. As the sun sets earlier, many students are leaving class or the library after dark. I also almost hit someone driving home who was crossing the street simply because I could not see them. I believe rates of reported instances would decrease simply due to being aware of our surrounding (people).
The storm on Sunday 10/24 took out the new street light bulb. Please service - thank you!
