The top of the sewer drains are covered with grass clippings from mowing and gravel. The drains starting from 1010 w Cottage Grove down the road on both sides of the street are covered and when the rain is heavy it causes the water to run in the middle of the street.
Culverts and ditches on both sides not draining properly on hilltop of West Arlington.
We always stop here on our walks to look at the minnows in Jackson Creek. Someone east of Sare Road has dumped a lot of sediment into the creek. In all the years we’ve been walking this trail, we’ve never seen this.
New apartments being build with very poor drainage caused new flooding on park square drive at enterence of complex. Never had flooding in the area before and water runs right down new enterence into drain that is being clogged with mud from construction and is not big enough for area. Flooding caused many new potholes on said road.
Roads are flooded on curry pike Liberty drive and West 3rd st and Jacob drive because the sewer drains are clogged with debris. If they were unclogged roads wouldn't flood so bad
Looking to obtain any drainage reports for areas around Wapehani Bike Park. Particularly the Sam's Club and Rural King shopping center.
Third Street underneath the B-Line Trail bridge. Kirkwood and Dunn. Indiana Avenue between Kirkwood and 7th. The three-way intersection of E Moores Pike, S Sare, and College Mall Rd. 7th St by the IMU. The IU campus around Ballantine. Dozens of alleyways and backyards. What do all of these places have in common? Flooding. They flood when it storms. I don't mean when it rains a bit, and I'm not talking about those rare events when it rains for days and we have unanticipated flooding (like in 2019 and 2021). I mean when it storms and we get heavy rain. Dozens of places in Bloomington become impassable. These areas have flooded out for years - ESPECIALLY that part of Third Street under the B-Line bridge. That seems to flood whenever we get more than just a drizzle of rain. And it's right next to that construction for the shiny new skyline bridge and convention center add-on. I recognize that drawing in additional funding through the use of the convention center is appealing for the city. That said, it's always amazed me how the city seems to focus on construction projects while completely disregarding the abysmal state of the stormwater drainage/runoff system in various parts of town. It's not like this is a new issue. I can only imagine how frustrating it will be for those visiting town to visit the convention center, only to get stuck there because the street right next to it flooded out. Again. I know it would be a massive undertaking, both in terms of cost and time. I won't pretend to know the ins-and-outs of infrastructure design and improvement. All I know is that I have to plan an alternate route to get through town whenever it rains enough, and it's happened enough that I know which parts of town to avoid.
160453*** work has been done, but this neighborhood that has been affected by the drainage, do not see a sufficient ditch to accommodate the drainage we endure. Please explain what has been done. Attn engineer Phil or Project person Ed.
The culvert at Davis Street and South Washington - between South Washington and South Lincoln - is overgrown with vegetation and needs to be cleaned out, otherwise it blocks run-off and a heavy rain will cause flooding. It has happened before. Thank you for taking care of this!
