SUBWAY

Case Date:
3/21/2019

Woodlawn, alley between the Subway/apartment building and rental house. Shrubs block all traffic visibility. Pulling out onto Woodlawn, you can't see what's coming from the right/heading south. Not even pedestrians on the sidewalk can be seen. Dangerous to pull out here since you pull out blindly not knowing what's coming, but also very dangerous for pedestrians (and bikers/scooters) because we can't see them coming when we pull out. There is an IU parking lot in this alley, so it's used daily by several people who say a little prayer for safety every time they have to leave work from this location. This has been reported by colleagues more than once, but the building owner has never taken any action. Not even so much as to trim the shrubs back. In our opinion, the shrubs should be removed completely. Even by trimming, pedestrians still would not be visible.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

47403, Bloomington, Indiana

Case Date:
12/19/2018

ACCESSIBILITY: I ride the bus to work at the Gov. Agency building at 1531 S. Curry Pike, and there most definitely needs to be a sidewalk that continues to wrap around further toward the bus stop so that wheel chairs or folks with other disabilities do not fall into the road. The area is super muddy, and even someone with good balance like me can't walk through it. There is a sidewalk leading through the parking lot, but where the bus drops you off there is no actual sidewalk, and the bus won't drop someone off at the actual sidewalk due to it obstructing the parking lot entrance. All it would take is probably about 20-30 feet of sidewalk right there. There may already be a number of complaints, but I really hope it gets fixed so someone doesn't flip their wheelchair into the road or something. Member of the Community Council for Accessibility here, and want to thank you for giving the opportunity to voice our concerns. Thanks, Chris :)

Dear city of Bloomington, Would it be possible to have some of the trees/bushes obstructing the view on S Walker Street trimmed? These are also growing over the sidewalk. In particular, it is very hard to see incoming traffic when turning left from Howe Street. Warm regards, Guillaume Duty PhD student in the biology department
