1981 S Henderson St, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
9/7/2020

The new median installed seems like an addition to try to help pedestrians make a safe transition across the street. I think that’s a great step as I often have worried about students at dismissal from south trying to safely make their way across that intersection to the bus stop. However as it currently is, it is not safe for drivers & maybe not even pedestrians. I watched 2 cars drive right over it just after dark, one definitely popped a tire. When I passed it another time I noticed multiple tire marks over the median. There does not seem to be clear enough markings on the median to warn drivers that they need to swerve to the side to avoid it. This is certainly true at night, yet I believe may be true during the daytime too as there are no signs or markings to show that the driver must shift to the right around the median or slow down in any way. Perhaps this measure taken to try to improve safety is actually more dangerous to all. A pedestrian may have a false sense of safety standing on an unmarked median that is not early visible or marked for cars to see. Can it be made into an official crosswalk with proper signage and clear expectations for drivers to slow, be aware and stop for pedestrians? Please take steps to make this safer for drivers and pedestrians. If school ever resumes this seems even more dangerous than it was before the addition of this median. Thank you!

Potholes, Other Street Repair

Jordan & Atwater

Case Date:
9/19/2020

This pothole is not visible from a distance and is very dangerous. I was going 15 mph since it is right by the stoplight at Jordan and Atwater and my back rear tire popped and the front passenger rim is completely bent. My car was undrivable and required roadside assistance to get it towed. I now need to have two tires, a rim and wheel replaced as well as a complete alignment done on my car. I am now left without a car for a week, I am forced to pay nearly $1000 in damages to my car and as a full time student who also works part time, this is a very large sum of money. The city needs to fix this quickly so that it does not happen to anybody else.

Trash

1104 S Covenanter DR

Case Date:
9/21/2020

Hi, The trash collector seemed to be in a hurry today and there were 5 trashcans on their sides in our neighborhood...ours was one of them. We have asked you kindly to please not dump our trashcans on their sides while picking up the trash. They damage the trashcans as well as the driveway that we spent $1600 to black top. We find it very disrespectful of the trash collector to just throw around our trashcans after picking up the trash when he could so easily gently put them down so they stand up if he would slow down a little while doing his job. We have video cameras on our property and this gets caught on our video cameras. Do we need to start fining the city each time they damage our trashcan and driveway by throwing the trashcans on their side in our driveway? It is frustrating when we pay so much in property and city taxes to have our property damaged by the city.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

Bloomington City Hall

Case Date:
9/25/2020

An 8 by 2 ft. Section of S. Highland on the west side of the steeet next to the storm drain section (near my house at 926 S. Highland) has buckled and crumbled into various sizes of asphalt chunks. If we have a sustained and severe downpour of rain, the water running down the street will carry the chunks into and block the storm drain under my front drive (on city property) and cause flooding. I am 81 and am unable to clear the street myself. May I ask you to inspect the area and possibly remove the debris? Thank you.

It just seems that this landlord/tenant is not responding.
