Electric bicycle lying in the grass on Dunn Street just north of the bagel shop. Has been there quite awhile.
I parked my car downtown on Sixth Street today near the library, then realized I couldn’t open my door because scooters were parked too close. I moved to another space and starting walking to the library, when I saw a woman get out of her car and move scooters out of her reserved parking space in the lot at Sixth and Lincoln. The scooters are a nuisance, and they look junky. Whatever good they may bring to Bloomington is far outweighed by the numerous injuries and a downtown with scooters blocking sidewalks, entrances and parking spaces. They should have been banned shortly after these companies dropped hundreds of them on our sidewalks without even the courtesy of an advance warning.
still not resolved from yesterday. May I recycle it?
6 scooters less than 6 paces from a bike rack. ArentAthey supposed to be parked at a bike rack, not on the sidewalk?
Bird keeps parking scooters at this bus stop, impeding bus access.
They have parked Bird scooters at this bus stop at 1015 N College again, impeding bus access. See ticket 168116 from April 16, just ten days ago.
The bus stop was blocked with Birds again this morning, though I didn't have a chance to snap a photo. See 168116 (April 16) and 168277 (April 29).
Scooter blocking sidewalk, ADA violation
2 electric bikes. First completely blocked sidewalk. Now have fallen over and are partially in the street.
