5th Street between Jefferson and Union streets is beyond the repair of simply fixing pot holes. Some of the damage on the street is due to property owners fixing their sewer lines and then not repaving the street.
The at-grade railroad crossings on N Adams and on Fountain Drive are in deplorable shape. Is the city responsible for these, or the Indiana railroad Company? There are many crossings in Bloomington and most of them are fine. These crossings are in a lower income neighborhood so I'd think the city, with its focus on equity and social justice, would be very interested in getting these improved.
Map says 1600 but actual address is 1514. Overgrowth from tree obscuring stop sign. I believe this is a City tree but not sure.
Could we please have a street sweeper run at the intersection of W 12th and N Oolitic. This is brand new blacktop after all.
As a rider on the 2W bus I am writing in regards to the deterioration of Lindbergh Dr. This road/hill is driven by the 2W bus and it has so many potholes and rough spots that it has almost become torture to ride the bus. The problems start at the bottom of the hill by 17th street and continue up the hill to Oolitic DR. This has been causing pain with the riders. I myself have horrible back pain as does family. We sometimes walk 4 blocks to another bus stop just to avoid having to ride up that hill.
Big pothole along the southbound lane of Franklin Road, right by the McDonald's. There are other potholes along Franklin Road that need to be filled.
The parkway trees have lifted the sidewalks along the Lakewood drive side of my house. They are a tripping hazard and I would like to see the. It’s repair them
The light on the Bypass to enter I-69 S is completely out (not even flashing red)
The traffic lights for eastbound traffic on 7th St between College Ave and Walnut Street are out-of-sync. Traffic is being held at both lights which does not allow traffic to clear both intersections.
Homeless people are again living in People’s Park. They’re using drugs, fighting, leaving trash everywhere, screaming and yelling, urinating and defecating and have taken over most of the benches and tables. It also appears that they are sleeping there overnight. We bought ice cream across the street and expected to have a nice Sunday afternoon in the park for thirty minutes or so… we tried sitting on the steps of a business on the opposite side of Dunn Street but the shrubbery nearby was probably soaked in urine based on the stench. We simply left at that point….. No other Indiana city of the same size and population has a homeless population of 1 % of that of Bloomington and that is directly attributable to the fact that Bloomington attracts these people by virtue of feeding them and enabling them unlike anywhere else in Indiana. I’ve lived in and near Bloomington since 1974 and this has simply gotten totally out of hand.
