Drainage grate partial removal on 10th at west side of rogers. I often pass over this grate on a bike when entering the b line after going down the big hill on rogers (southbound) and if i didnt notice this, i would literally die. Not sure if the trades district garage workers removed it or aome equipment tore it up or what but yowza!! YOW!! ZA!!
East side of rogers, between b line and tenth. 8:35am. City of bloomington bucket truck blocking sidewalk. There were two of them at 8:20am.
Debris, sand, gravel in both W 3rd bike lanes. Some parts are worse than others but the entire stretch from adams to I69 is a mess

Pothole on N Kinzer pike at three way stop near entrance to BHSN
Old 37 & n walnut. The ped xing across walnut (part of the cascades trail that connects to griffy) is still / again broken. I stayed for five minutes, pushed the beg buttons lots of times, tried both directions. Always the red hand, never the white walk. The intersection is cycling normally and promptly for cars. The crossing of old 37 appears to be operating in ped recall mode (ie, working), though its countdown timer is misconfigured. But the high-stress crossing of walnut is versnickered. I get sick when i think how many millions of dollars we've spent on this recreational facility to still have this gap in the most dangerous part.
Sidewalk on east side of Rogers Street north of 11th Street just south of the train bridge completely obstructed by honeysuckle. I saw a couple pedestrians walking in the bike lane to get around it. Thanks!
Sidewalk on the north side of roughly 11th Street where it meets Fairview Street completely blocked by vegetation. This is just southwest of the train bridge. Note that there are obstructions above ground level as well as at ground level. Note that there is further vegetation just around the corner closer to the train bridge. Thanks!
This is follow up on ureport #176835, covering the sidewalk just west and south of the train bridge at 11th and fairview. After 2 weeks without any progress from the city, I started doing it myself. I removed most of the large honeysuckle plants growing within 2-4 ft of the sidewalk. I removed the branches overhanging within 6.5ft of the sidewalk. As you can see in this picture, I shoveled the dirt off of the inner 1ft of the sidewalk, *and found the edge of the sidewalk* for the first time in decades!!! I did not complete the shoveling. I've put in about 3hrs labor at this site so far and anticipate another 1.5hrs before completion. It would be awesome if this kind of clearing happened at the numerous places where hillsides have collapsed onto sidewalks, often reducing effective width by 25-50%. should i finish shoveling this one or can someone in public works do it?
