Overgrown weeds obstructing sidewalk
Overgrown weeds obstructing sidewalk
There are two dogwood trees on the sidewalk that have lots of weeds growing at the base and desperately need to be watered.
Poison ivy growing onto the sidewalk between 1114 Nancy St and the property to the north of it
Sidewalk just north of Covenanter and High street has poison ivy growing onto the sidewalk.
Asphalt on Smith at its intersection with Euclid and to the West of that intersection is cracked and crumbling. The ends of the sidewalk on the west side of that intersection are badly eroded.
We have these nice wide sidewalks in Bloomington to use, however, properties are not being maintained and the overgrowth blocks a large portion of them. Sare Road from Spicewood all the way down to Rhorer road has a lot of overgrowth. I've had my face cut by thorns when I met another runner at the same time and had to run through the brush that was in the sidewalk. The roundabout about at Sare and Winslow down to Jackson creek roundabout is also overgrown. Particularly the bridge area at Jackson Creek. These areas need trimmed down and edging to get full use of the sidewalks. These are heavily traveled paths that are not being maintained.
There is a hydrant with a big mound of dirt adjacent to it and snow fencing surrounding it completely. This is at 9th and Fairview. This seems like a hazard. It looks to be part of the city’s fiber project
I let you know there 3 recycle bin blocking’s sidewalk that hazards for pedestrians
Trash cans At both properties on either side of the alley have been blocking the sidewalk for the last six days. Also, when trying to submit this with an included photo, it locks up and won’t submit the request.
At corner of S Morton and W Howe streets the shrubbery growth continues up to the street curb - which both blocks the sidewalk access along Morton as well as creates a blind spot for any traffic turning from Howe onto Morton. I was nearly hit by a FedEx truck yesterday because of the blocked view while at that corner.
