The city really needs to use something besides Facebook for notifications about public safety issues. Residents should not be required to use that platform to receive timely information. There was a major gas leak today and apparently that was the only place it was posted. People were unaware.
The side of the road is full of pine needle's and debris. It covers the storm grates. The street sweeper cleaned one side but not the other. That’s been a week ago.
Just want to give a shoutout to the whole parks department on the excellent work with the new south shore trail. Fantastic connection and lots of fun to run tonight. Thanks for all your hard work.
After the north shore trail is complete, I do think it’s worth pursuing a full lake loop in collaboration with IU. A connection from the existing IU RTP to the Lanaam Trail would create a full Griffy Lake loop that would make an amazing trail system even better. It would also become a favorite of every trail runner in the area - a 10 mile loop this close to town would be fantastic!
The traffic light doesn't work correctly. The turn signals come on every time, even when cars aren't in the turn lane.
Do you do anything Christina Smith? Traffic signal isn't working correctly. Turn signal comes on when no cars are in the turn lanes. I'm tired of seeing cars that want to go straight and all 4 directions, cars just sit there because we all have a red light. This town just doesn't make sense. I'm about to lose my mind why I live in a city that doesn't maintain its infrastructure. This is a disgrace. And you just sit there and do nothing with the uReports. Brilliant!
The traffic light turn signals need adjustment. The cameras detect traffic going straight thinking that someone is using the turn lane. This stops traffic unnecessarily and we all just sit there and wait. I love destroying the environment as much as the next person, but there are other things I like even more. And that is getting a green light. What are you going to do with the information, Christina? Must be break time.
I reported this a while back, and it's happened again. The street sign at 8th and Morton is twisted around so that the Morton part is aligned with 8th and the 8th part is aligned with Morton.
Property manager does not maintain sidewalk clearance. Passersby have removed obstructive invasive branches which remain piled in the yard. The tree in the photo has multiple invasive weeds that need to be removed as well as the tree trimmed back from the sidewalk. There is another tree north of this location that is in similar condition. I personally brought this to the attention of the property manager with no response. Hence turning to uReport. Thanks.
The 3rd street bicycle lane adjacent to the IU campus has been massively improved with the newly installed barriers! This section of the commute takes me 3 fewer minutes to bicycle on now that drivers don't block the bicycle lane. Biking in this lane feels so much safer and more comfortable with the barriers up, especially since considering drivers tend to go pretty fast on this road. Also, the barriers don't look like an eyesore at all, which is something I previously read that IU officials were concerned about. The barriers blend into the background enough to not be garish, but they are still clearly visible to drivers and cyclists. Honestly they're pretty stylish for bicycle lane barriers. As a bicycle commuter, even small-scale projects like this make me feel cared about by the city. It makes me glad to be a Bloomingtonian! Laissez le B-Town rouler!
