The detour for the B-Line Trail around Switchyard Park right now (10/22/2019) is a product of shortsighted planning, a lack of anticipation of user experiences, and just illogical. When coming from the north, the detour turns you to the west on a small gravel path and leads to a street - W. Hillside Drive. There are no signs after leaving the B-Line that indicate there is a planned detour route. My assumption is to go on the multi-use path on the west side of Rogers. Good luck getting over there in rush hour traffic on a bicycle. No one on Rogers stops for bicycle or pedestrian traffic trying to cross the street. Why would the detour not go on the multi-use path on the north side of Grimes to Rogers? A sidewalk is in place to get from the B-Line (just north of the bridge) to the Grimes path and then use the light to cross Grimes and Rogers to get on the Rogers path. That is what I will do from now on with my logical thinking that the City did not use in setting up the detour. Also, the accessibility issues with the detour as it is now seem questionable at best, and unsafe otherwise. After you cross Rogers and get on the multi-use path to head south, the journey is far from smooth sailing. That path is woefully maintained and clearly not prepared to be the detour of the B-Line Trail. The trail bed has gravel, sand, and glass on it, among other debris. Multiple points along the path have overgrown bushes and tree limbs that present a hazard. The City's detour signs should read: Good Luck to All Who Pass. Thanks for creating a fun adventure on the commute home today. Nothing like leaving the safety of the B-Line to enter a world of traffic, debris, and obstructions. Well thought out. But, what else do we expect in a city that notoriously fails at detours and construction projects? Not on time and clearly out of the way. I'll drive tomorrow for my own safety.

The attached photo shows the detour for the B-Line Trail (closed for Switchyard construction) around 11am today. I had to carry my bike across the void. I am concerned that someone with accessibility issues who cannot lift their bike, or is in a wheelchair, would not be able to get by. The sidewalk on the opposite side of the road is closed as well. This is the west side of Rogers just north of the Rockport intersection. I do not see how this is allowed to happen.

There has been a shopping cart on my property for over a week now. I was told by a police officer to put a note on it with my trash and the City would take care of it. I did that on Sunday evening, but the cart is still on the sidewalk.

These tenants never put back their trash and recycling bins. The sidewalk is narrow and the road busy. I sometimes have to take my dog into busy 3rd St. to get around the bins. Problem is at 411 3rd St. and has been an ongoing problem.

I believe this house is vacant because this trash has been here for at least the past two weeks. It is very close to the sidewalk and appears that it may have been disturbed by animals. It is at the house on the north side of 7th St, the second house west from the corner of 7th St and Dunn St.

Hello, the pictured trash can was placed in my driveway at 514 S Grant St sometime between 9am and 10:30 am this morning. It blocked me from entering my driveway and was extremely heavy to move. I'd like to return it to the proper address, but unsure where it came from. I'm guessing you have a list and can advise on how to return it to the proper address. Since school has started it seems new residents are unsure how to use the city bins. My neighbors on the northwest corner of Grant and University have kept their trashcan blocking the sidewalk for over two weeks now.
