since they recently appeared downtown, scooters keep being parked anywhere, many times blocking the sidewalk. (For example, like in the attached picture from Grant street). The companies profiting from these scooters should provide appropriate parking racks. The usage of the scooters should be more clearly regulated too. They are used on sidewalks at very high speeds.
Scooters blocking sidewalk and stairs in front of Johnson Creamery building. There were even more farther down where the sidewalk is more narrow, you can see them in the background in the attached photo. Saw eight of them total and all of them were in the middle of the sidewalk.
6 scooters less than 6 paces from a bike rack. ArentAthey supposed to be parked at a bike rack, not on the sidewalk?
Four scooters were parked at 7:45 today transversely on the sidewalk on fourth street next to Taste of India. They are blocking the sidewalk. If someone with a wheelchair of a baby stroller gets to this point, they won't be able to use the sidewalk. This is just an example, but in general these scooters, which have recently appeared in Bloomington, are usually badly parked. Also it should not be allowed to ride these scooters on sidewalks since they travel very fast! Please do something to regulate the usage of the scooters. Best regards, Carmen
