The entire length of the Clear Creek Trail from Tapp Road to Church Lane needs serious tree trimming work. The number of branches obstructing the path is quite high all throughout the trail. It's dangerous as people dodge branches.
Hi! I was wondering if there might be any plans, long-term or short-term, for devising a somewhat less death-defying way for the Bloomington Rail Trail to cross Rogers Road (between Gordon Pike and That Road). Especially if you are on the Trail traveling south, because of the angle at which the Trail crosses Rogers, it is nearly impossible to see oncoming north-bound traffic. I am a long-time user of the trail (for more than 15 years), and have crossed Rogers at that point countless times, on foot and on my bicycle, as there really was no other option. Lately, however, I have been using the new “spur” trail, and crossing through to That Road using the construction staging area for the “SOMO” development, so that I can then cross Rogers at a 90° angle, with a clear view of traffic. That is a less-harrowing way to cross Rogers, of course. But it is not clear to me that the spur trail will continue to access That Road after the “SOMO” development is fully built out. And, using this method does mean that I have to use the traffic lane over the narrow bridge where That Road crosses over Clear Creek before I can re-join the Rail Trail headed south. It seems to me likely that traffic on this part of Rogers will increase when the Gordon-Fullerton connector is completed next month, exacerbating the situation. So, this is not an emergency of any kind. But just a query to see if the City has any plans to address the issue. Thank you for your time, and for all the good work that you do.
Heading South on College, the far left lane has a huge pothole at College and 4th
Tree of heaven spotted in the park. Since they are spraying in the park for other things, this might be a good opportunity to stop this invasive species.
WB traffic from Mall parking lot not given GREEN signal for straight & right turns; left turn signal functioning. N, S & E bound traffic functions normally, just no WB given Green light. Sat through 3 cycles at approx. 7:00pm.
There have been motorcyclists and other vehicles gathering in the empty Macy's parking lot at night for months. They are very loud and sound like they are doing tricks, driving very fast, revving engines, etc. This is a dangerous safety issue. It's also very noisy for the apartments and neighborhoods nearby.
None of college mall sidewalks clear. Many pedestrians forced to walk in the street
The green left turn light coming out of the mall on the street between Fazoli's and BJ Brewhouse onto South College Mall Rd is inoperative. This causes the left turn lane to only get the yellow caution signal for a few seconds before the light goes red ( the main light issred if no one trips the signal to cycle from the straight ahead or right turn lane.) so then the left turners are sitting at the light until the right hand lane trips the (Main) signal to cycle to green.
Green light for left turn signal arrow (when facing IHOP) does not work. Light cycles from red to yellow arrow (no green arrow turns on anymore).
