Biking & Walking

Case Date:
12/10/2012

The bike rack at Sahara Mart on 2nd street is not ideally located. It is afixed to a street sign. The street sign blocks one of the parking spots. The rack faces the street and if you park your bike on the side of the rack that you are supposed to, it hangs in the street. The other option is park your bike on the "wrong" side of the rack and have it hanging in the sidewalk in the way of pedestrians. Plus, the bike isn't well supported on that side, so the chances of it falling over are great.

Sidewalk directly east of/ next to Noodles Restaurant building @ 517 E. Kirkwood is completely dark afer 5:30 pm. Last night, there were people in the tree/shrub area as we walked toward the restaurant, hidden from view. Construction tarp along this sidewalk makes walking along this strip between building potentially dangerous. There is no lighting coming off of the building or the construction site/lot. Suggest some type of lighting from building or IU lot now storing construction materials.

The Bloomington Bagel Company at 113 N. Dunn Street recently installed giant umbrellas on their outdoor patio tables. As a result, the tables and chairs are extending into the pedestrian right of way on the sidewalk. The umbrellas are also not tall enough to safely walk under. It appears to be presenting several hazards and blocking safe access for pedestrians and individuals who use wheelchairs.

Hello - as of 9:30 PM on May 31st, there's a very large tree limb that appears to have come down during today's storm that is completely covering the sidewalk and some of the street at the corner of Hillside and Palmer. I tried to move it but it's too large for one person. Thanks!

There is some sort of storm drain cover between 718 and 706 University that flips over if you step on it. I was walking down the sidewalk on the north side of the street and had to walk on the grass to avoid low hanging trees (that really need to be trimmed). I stepped on the cover and it flipped and I fell into it up to my knee, causing several serious scrapes on my leg. It is very dangerous! I was hurt so I didn't take note of the exact address, but it's on the patch of grass between the sidewalk and the street, and the low-hanging trees make it impossible to walk down the sidewalk - more people are going to fall in it. Please fix it so it doesn't flip - it was a very scary and painful experience!

This house had a tree blow over in a storm last week. The tree that blew over is blocking the public city sidewalk forcing me to walk in the street. Regardless of who does or does not own this property, this needs to be addressed as it is not only unsafe, but it also makes our neighborhood look bad.

Since this building is no longer a garage, it seems that a full curb should be installed to prevent people from pulling up on the sidewalk. There are constantly cars parked on the sidewalk here (several feet in past the yellow painted curb (which is flattened because it used to be a garage). I asked the tenants to stop, and then today a dumpster showed up on the sidewalk. This is the North side of the "FAR" gallery building at fourth and rogers. Obviously this is frustrating to me but it's probably pretty annoying for the kid in a wheelchair who i see going back and forth to school and having to cross the street to get around.
