3721-3799 East Morningside Drive

Case Date:
1/13/2016

The speed bumps here are massive and are destroying my suspension. The speed limit is 25MPH in my neighborhood but I can't go more than 10MPH without my car bottoming out on the speed bumps or hitting my head on my car ceiling. I'm all for speed bumps enforcing a reasonable speed limit but having two gigantic speed bumps every block in my entire neighborhood is kind of silly. I have to drive over dozens of these a week when going to work and have now had to replace my struts ($900) and my shocks/shock absorbers are next ($800). I have a Toyota Camry, which is a pretty common and rather robust car generally speaking so I doubt my story is a unique one. Is it possible to lower the speed bumps? Thank you.

3218 E Moores PIKE

Case Date:
10/17/2014

City Arborist told me to contact HAND for tree code violations. There are at least 1/2 dozen dead trees at entrance to The Arbors Apartments on E. Moores Pike. Several large limbs have fallen recently, causing hazard to people, dogs and cars. Manager is aware of problem & has said he plans to remove them, but weeks have passed & no action has been taken. I walk my dog on the path & road where these trees are & it frightens me to walk by them, especially on a windy day.

What is wrong with the City transportation people! We already have the worst traffic in Bloomington. Absolutely DO NOT eliminate the one ways of Atwater college etc. to create slow and jammed skinny streets without any alternatives. Biking is great and so is walking but we all can't afford to live 200 feet from work and school and some of us must get across town. Neighborhoods are great but Bloomington can't be one giant one with zero arterials. That is crazy. We need several large and frankly expanded arteriajs to get across town in both directions. And then if you want to have slow and multi use webbing that is great. But we still need major trafficways. Stop killing or economy and time by creating logjams. Please please keep two lane roads. Also with the new construction for students miles from campus in the East there better be a plan to keep them from jamming things up. We need a healthy third or other east/west large and speedy road all the way through town. The same with North south options. Stop catering to white liberal privilege of folks with enough money and time to buy a downtown historic home and take their electric bike to work. That isn't the reality of working people.

Other report disappeared. Multiple times almost hit on bike by speeding cars e Morningside between park and smith. Includes but not only increasing number of summer house students. New streets need to include calming like hump (not horrible bumps everywhere). Safety needs now not years from now. Morning afternoon and early evening mostly. Crazy

I am writing to request a deer crossing sign at the intersection of Highland and Thornton due to a family of deer and the recent death of a fawn from being hit by a car.

I'm assuming this is temporary, but the road is really rough in this area.

I am so grateful for the new traffic light at the intersection of Bloomfield rd and Rolling Ridge Way (exiting Twin Lakes Rec Center), but I cannot wait until you have paved the remaining part of the exit. There is a pretty nasty sharp ridge now that my tires don't like at all. Thanks!

The curb cut on the SW corner of 9th and Walnut is in bad disrepair. Impassable for anyone in a wheelchair and also very dangerous for everyone. It's been this way for several months now.

Dear City of Bloomington, This is not a complaint, rather a thank you. Thank you for completing the Old 37 Curve Correction project so quickly and for doing a great job. I wish that the I-69 project were so efficient. Sincerely, Troy Byler
