Lights are still out on a portion (long portion) of the trail - been over a week since I gave notice. it's dark there, even flying through on a bike. walking, it would be a long stroll in the dark. what's up? waiting on a part? if so, we should order some extras to have around. if we are waiting on a vendor, we should get a backup vendor. just seems important to safety and being able to patrol it effectively. Sorry to chafe on you, but nearing 70 years young and not looking forward to tussling with any hoodlums that get emboldened by the lack of lights. And I did not see the security guys, which was weird on a night without lights, their little vehicle should have stood out to me. Thanks in advance for taking care of this.

As someone who walks a lot, I appreciate the B-Line trail and how well the city maintains it, including promptly clearing snow. So I was disappointed today when I had to tiptoe through ice on the trail near WonderLab, between 4th and Kirkwood. Thank you.

Lamppost #142 light is out on the B-Line trail. It is the first lamppost on the west side of Rogers Street near the City Hall Plaza. This is a dangerous crosswalk as cars often speed through the walk.

In 2024, the City of Bloomington planted native species along the west side of the B-Line trail adjacent to the 300 & 400 block of Mortons St. After a year of growth the portion next to the B-Line trail looks fine; however the “back side” of this planted area that is on the east side of Morton St is heavily overgrown, encroaching 3 to 4 feet into Morton St, obstructing traffic, pedestrians and bikers on Morton St. this is becoming a safety issue due to the narrowing of the street die to overgrown, and un-kempt planting of native plants along the B-Line trail. Requesting that the City of Bloomington groom the back side of this native planting, along Mortton St as to not obstruct the normal use of Morton shared by pedestrians, bikes and traffic.

Is there a way to protect pedestrians/bikers on the B-Line Trail by adding retractable bollards or something on the yellow painted line by intersections so that cars don't mistake the trail for a road? Thank you in advance for working towards a solution that will help improve the safety of all.

Light #107 has been faltering for some time and is now strobing. It will completely fail soon, since it has been pale for quite a while. Light #115 is out/dark.

There is a fair amount of ice on the trail between 3rd and 4th. I know it may be melted before anyone checks this out, but I wanted to mention it to remind the city that it should comply with its own ordinance. Yesterday I complained about snow on the sidewalk leading to the trail and the overpass on the north side of third. Today the section adjacent to Vectren was fairly clear, and I appreciate that, but not along the closed former motorcycle shop at the corner of 3rd and Madison. I know the city wants to be bicycle and pedestrian friendly, and built the trail to help achieve that goal. But if the trail and the access paths to the trail are not passable, you are falling far short of that goal. The snow stopped ten days ago. Every road has been clear for more than a week, as have parking lots. But the sidewalks still suck. It’s obvious by the city’s actions where its priorities are. Please consider raising the fines for snow removal violations, and sharing the fees with the people who report the violations. I’d make a mint. Thank you.
