A tree was snapped by the win, and is now blocking the sidewalk on the east side of Dunn between 11th and 12th streets. It is not obvious if it was a City-owned tree or private.
owned parcels on West cottage Grove east of Monroe Street are overgrown and obstructing sidewalk passage. This is the only sidewalk and poison ivy and brush make it difficult to navigate. There's a tree marked for removal that needs addressed before it causes injury or property damage. This has been reported before.
Street tree downed in storm and blocks sidewalk
Mid-way on 4th between Dunn & Indiana, south side of street. Sidewalk is blocked with a fallen limb.
You have a crosswalk with a planter. The huge sidewalk you are putting in has made the road too narrow. You should make the crosswalk planter small so the road is not too narrow. Will the new, much narrower road meet the width requirements? Seems like this is just going to create accidents and the city is being negligent.
Stoplight and pedestrian signal where walkers (sidewalk) can cross New 37 to head toward Cascades Park. Pedestrian cross button and walkers signal in white light do not work.
The traffic signal at east 3rd and Smith Rd the south bound side of Smith Rd at east 3rd needs a left turn arrow to help with the flow of traffic. Cars wanting to turn left on 3rd have to wait for on coming traffic. Some cars don't move forward or scoot over to allow other cars to get around them. Sometimes only one or two cars make it through the intersection and during busy times I've seen it back up passed the train underpass and as far as 10th Street. I have reported this before and was told that was a INDOT light and INDOT said it was a city of Bloomington light. I figured whoever paid for the paving and handicap sidewalk improvements on smith road would be responsible for the traffic light. And with all the apartments being built on the east side traffic is only going to get worse. I've lived in park ridge east for 20 years and it has always been a issue. Send someone out and have them stand at the entrance of Park ridge east on morningside and Smith and watch the traffic. A left turn arrow for 8 to 10 seconds would keep the flow of traffic moving better.
So when we have a 5 ft concrete sidewalk WE are responsible to clear it for the kids. As propertty owners. Then the city replaces it with 10 ft of asphalt, assuring us that we are no longer responsible for it. “We will take care of it, Parks and Rec will deal with it in a timely manner”. We get 0.7 inches of snow, the path is icy, and the city is nowhere to be seen. We have to clear the now TEN ft of path ourselves to avoid being sued. FU Hamiltlon! This is is less than an inch!
There is a large pipe knocked down from the corner of South Rogers Street and Hillside, it is laying on the sidewalk.
