I'm not sure if this intersection is in Bloomington City limits, or within the jurisdiction of Monroe County. As you enter Gates Drive from westbound N. Jacob Drive (by Wendy's), the flowers and plants have grown so high that you cannot see northbound traffic on Gates Drive. I entered this intersection twice today and had close calls because I could not see oncoming traffic, and I'm in a large pickup. Thanks.
If possible, I would like to see the sidewalk on the south side of East 2nd Street (between Highland Ave and Ballantine) made available for walking. There are big bushes that perpetually extend far into the sidewalk and no one is able to walk or run on it. Thank you!
The report graffiti button on your mobile version is a dead link. On the full version it will not allow you to click 'choose file' for upload a photo (including this form I'm sending)
Reported to B. Calender-Anderson: Lives at 314 N. Lincoln. Garage doors in alley to the south has been hit by graffiti 4 or 5 times with black paint. Next block across Lincoln to the west (Pavillion Properties) has also been tagged with "420 Kids" and "Don't Try Me" in black paint.
Reflective signs in the "islands" along W. 6th Street have graffiti and (in some cases) anti govt. fliers on them.
At the corner of Woodburn and W.15th St. there is a house covered over with growth. It grows out so far plus there is a dead truck that never moves that you can't see around without pulling way out in the street. I've been almost hit multiple times. The growth is never cut back and the truck has set there for many many years without ever being moved.
Intersection of S.Rockport Rd and W. Countryside Ln. When sitting in a car at the stop sign on W. Countryside Ln, I can't see traffic traveling from south to north on Rockport Rd. Trees need to be trimmed.
Today was the first day I used the B-line and bike boulevard on Allen Street. I really enjoy having these types of routes available to me for commuting on my bike. I hope that the city will build in more of these types of places.
Now that Rogers Road is closed due to construction of the roundabout at Sare Rd., there has been a significant increase in traffic cutting through the Spicewood neighborhood. That in and of itself is bad enough, but many of the vehicles are speeding or blowing through the stop sign at Spicewood and Round Hill. This is creating a danger for us trying to enter or back out of our driveway, or crossing the street, since we live just over the crest of the hill at the intersection. When we back out of our driveway, we are counting on southbound traffic stopping at the stop sign. If they proceed through the stop sign at 30 mph they may not be able to avoid broad siding us as we back out of our driveway. The same holds true for when we pull in our driveway.
On work days just before 8 am city work teams leave the garage at Henderson & Miller in mass headed for job sites. It is unfortunate that their timing coincides with a busy time for commuters adding to traffic woes. Could they leave 15 minutes earlier or later?
