Black car is parked on sidewalk
Temporary parking lot / staging area on west side of rogers between 10th and 11th st. I believe this lot is being used to assist trades district garage construction. Trucks still parking on grass, even though there is now a large gravel pit on the site. More importantly, instead of using the engineered driveway cut on the north edge of the site, they pull directly from their parking spots onto the street. This is causing severe damage to the sidewalks along the entire frontage, as well as obstructing pedestrian passage when the drivers stop on the sidewalk while waiting traffic to clear. Today 5 trucks crossed the sidewalk just in front of us as we were walking back from fairview elem at about 3:30pm -- their shift change seems to conflict with the safe route to school.
Sidewalk on west side of rogers on the norh and south of the train bridge / duke substation (about 12th st) blocked by vegetation again
SE corner 14th&college, co live site. Cone, scrap wood, lift blocking sidewalk.
South of 14th on the east side of college, collapsed sidewalm temains. They drove heavy equipment over their brand new sidewalk and now theyre refusing to correct it, because it will be cheaper to wait until they are done driving heavy equipment on the sidewalk,then they can address these all at once. If they are still driving on the sideqalk, make them reimpose the walkaround. .ake them reimpose the walkaround. Today, not tomorrow. Thanks! Your friend in sideqalks, Greg
Sidewalk on north side of 10th just east or rogers is closed to madison. i Checked MOT for the garmong trades district garage project and it is supposed to be the south side closed with the north specifically reserved as a walk around. So the sidewalk is currently blocked on both sides of the street.
A large stone from a wall is blocking the sidewalk on 8th Street just east of College.
Just south of rogers/madison train bridge (about 12th st), west sidewalk. I appreciate the work that was done here! If streets division was really involved then i doubly appreciate what may be a watershed moment for Bloomington sidewalks! So I'm sorry to condescend on technique but when clearing a sidewalk, it's essential to walk along the outside edge and if anything makes you duck or squirm, you're not done yet (it is a lot of work, i know). I'm 5'10 and this branch completely blocks my way along about a third of the walkway. This is a 5' monolithic sidewalk along a busy road. We need the full width. Thanks!
egregiously parked black bmw entirely blocking sidewalk. no ticket visible as of 12:03pm 10/22/20. If they did get a ticket, they removed it, and might need another to encourage them to GET OFF THE SIDEWALK
When someone in a wheelchair approaches the Community Kitchen or the bus stop there, from Switchyard Park, they are met with an obstacle at the very last step. I know someone who uses a wheelchair, who lives in Switchyard Apts. To get to the Community Kitchen, or to that paticular bus stop, she can't just take the sidewalk on the East side of Rogers. The sidewalk ends right before the bridge (which is infuriating, in and of itself). She could go around, through the path in the park to get there, but then she would run into this issue, where there is no sidewalk, or slope from the Switchyard path to this bus stop, this section of sidewalk, and the community kitchen. Please repair it. It is a tiny patch of sidewalk, could have been done when all the switchyard paths were being built. Do it now. Thank you.
