Tree branches fell on sidewalk.
Tree branches fell on sidewalk.
The large section of the fir tree that blew down last Tuesday is blocking both the sidewalk and the entire southbound lane of Highland. This sidewalk is used by a lot of Winslow Farm residents who walk to the YMCA or trail around the park to the east of Highland. I've seen people walk into the street to get around the large tree section. I hope that will be removed soon. Highland gets a lot of traffic especially when there are events at the Winslow Sports Complex. Removal of the tree should be a high priority.
Tree blocking entire sidewalk on north side of Grimes. I might have placed it in wrong block, but it is mid-block.
I live in Canterbury house apartments and use the Bloomington Transit to get around. My daughter (26) and myself are both disabled and have mobility limitations. I would assume that it was from last Wednesday's storms, but there is a large tree branch blocking the sidewalk along basswood between the entrance to Canterbury House Apartments and the bus stop at Forest Ridge Apartments. We had a doctor's appointment this morning and had to be at the bus stop by 7:20AM and was surprised to see such a mess blocking the sidewalk. Since my daughter would be unable step off the sidewalk with her rollater walker to avoid the section that the tree branch covers it meant we had to walk from Canterbury House Apartments entrance to the entrance to Forest Ridge on the road. This was very unsettling for both her and I because we both know how bad cars fly around the corner and how fast they speed through this section. We came in from the bus at 2:25pm today and the tree branch was still there so we took a photo to show.
Tree branches blocking sidewalk on walk to work. 305 S. Rogers St.
Sidewalk impassible in front of old water treatment plant on S Walnut across from Royal (west side of street.
Path/sidewalk along north side of Rogers (between High and Winding Brook Circle) is substantially overgrown, reducing effective width by almost 50% in places. There is a good amount of poison ivy included. This is a recurring problem that needs to be permanently addressed. I've reported this issue multiple times over the past couple summers. If this is city's responsibility could it be a regularly scheduled maintenance item?
I've reported this multiple times now over the past couple months. Sidewalk along North side of East Rogers is still overgrown with vegetation, including poison ivy. At this point this has been an issue all summer. Grounds crew were out mowing and cleaning up on south High recently, but they stopped short of cleaning this section up on Rogers. To clarify, this is the sidewalk/multiuse path that runs along the north side or Rogers Road, between High up to Winding Brook Circle.
Sidewalk along North side of East Rogers still overgrown with vegetation, including poison ivy. Does the city have any plans to clean this up?
How long until this sidewalk is repaired to be usable? The CBU hazard marker has been here for months.
