the trees on south henderson are covering the pedestrian signs and making it difficult and dangerous for kids walking to Templeton - I witnessed a near accident with a child this morning!
I am writing to report a broken tree limb that poses a safety concern. It appears that the limb was damaged during the storm we experienced at the end of March 2023. The tree in question is located on city land outside of my property boundary at 1301 W. 8th Street in Bloomington. The broken limb is specifically situated at the intersection of Adams Street and 8th Street, where there is a significant amount of pedestrian traffic. The footpath visible in the attached picture is frequently used by pedestrians crossing from the sidewalk on Adams Street onto 8th Street. The presence of the broken tree limb in this area creates a potential safety hazard for pedestrians. Additionally, there is a slight concern that the broken limb obstructs the view of the Adams Street bridge for drivers turning right onto Adams Street from Fountain. This obstruction may affect the visibility of oncoming traffic, potentially leading to traffic incidents or delays. I kindly request that the relevant department of Bloomington takes immediate action to address this issue. It is crucial to ensure the safety of pedestrians and motorists in the area by removing the broken tree limb and conducting any necessary tree maintenance or inspection. Thank you in advance for your prompt attention to this matter. Should you require any additional information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me at. I appreciate your efforts in maintaining the safety and well-being of our community.
There is planter in the Right-Of-Way with wild flowers that goes into the parking. City maintains these but it has overgrown. Dump truck came around the corner and I almost got hit. Could this please be trimmed back so there are no accidents?
I keep getting updates about #183310 which is a 5 month old ticket for a tree about to fall onto High Street. We couldn't wait five months for the city to reply to an email let alone remove a tree that was at a 45 degree angle and resting in the crook of a dead tree. It seemed like something that should be taken care of in the calendar year. Thankfully, Duke Power is very competent and professional and they took down the tree for you. Duke closed the ticket for you so you can close it on your end. Best, EO
Several trees along the stretch of Smith rd by the stella ridge neighborhood are at risk of falling into the road
Two large branches broken and hanging into the street ostructing a bit of the road.
The tree on the right side of the house which is facing W twin oaks ridge is impassable on the sidewalk. Children walk home from school this route and the sidewalks need to be cleared of low hanging tree limbs. Thank you!
tree limbs broken and hanging low over parking area on the street. One limb is down and along the side of the road.
This tree is leaning dangerously toward the street. There is often a line of cars waiting to turn onto Hillside, and it would likely crush one of them.
On both corners of the T intersection of Hillside Drive and South Valley Forge Road, visibility is extremely poor and it is dangerous to try and pull off of valley forge onto Hillside going either east or west. If you are heading south on Valley forge and want to go east on Hillside, the bushes / brush / and trees block the view looking to your left; you have to pull out into the lane of travel to see left. The visibility looking right isn't much better but less of a concern because you aren't passing over an oncoming lane of travel.
