Snow removal at entrance off of walnut and the 45/46 entrance we were told was maintained by city, no one came Friday and both entrances are hard to access without 4 wheel drive.
Streets are still unplowed in the downtown neighborhood of McDoel Gardens four days after a snow emergency was declared. Residents do not appreciate that basic services have been dropped now that the hospital has moved. We are still paying taxes in part to support basic city services.
I understand we have had a lot of snow and y’all are doing the best you can however, Pinewood Drive really needs plowed and or salt put down. With the grade in the road it is difficult for cars like mine to make it up the incline.
Potholes near NE corner of 4th & Rogers. ALSO-please check grassy area in front of 521 W. Kirkwood--the grassy area between the sidewalk & the street. There are several sinkholes a few feet west of the bus stop sign. It's a tripping hazard. Thanks.
I witnessed a truck with a very long bed try to turn right from W 13th to N Maple. The driver chose to plow down the stop sign/street sign in order to make the turn. The stop sign is completely down, across the sidewalk on W 13th at N Maple. Sorry I couldn't get the name of the company.
Curry Pike is nearly always left snow covered while other streets like w. 3rd and Bloomfield Road are well cleared. Who is responsible for Curry Pk, the City or County?

Overhanging branch and downed branch block sidewalk
I was a bit disappointed with the dangerous traffic situation I had to navigate on Monday morning due to the City of Bloomington's careless job site. Grimes is being resurfaced it looks like. I was heading north on Dunn and came to the intersection with Grimes. There was no sign to indicate the road was closed. I could not go straight on Dunn across Grimes because a City dump truck and other vehicles had the road entirely blocked. I could not see traffic to the west on Grimes because a City street sweeper was parked right at the intersection blocking the view (and there was another piece of equipment behind it). I could just barely see the intersection at Grimes & Henderson to try to guess if traffic was coming from my east. The City had a big machine parked just east of Dunn on Grimes that had a dump truck backed up to it for tearing up the road surface. I made a decision to go for it, and turned out onto the wrong lane of traffic to go around the construction. There were 5 city employees in bright colors standing on the sidewalk chatting, just watching this traffic hazard. Other people were driving through trying to navigate the broken up road and the blocked streets, intersections, and egress without any assistance from the City employees on the job. This is dangerous. Just close the road! Or put some people in charge of directing traffic so we know when it is safe to proceed and not risk hitting another citizen or getting run over by the various machinery moving about. This was pretty ridiculous even by Bloomington standards (which, are actually quite low it turns out!).
Raise sidewalk on sare road, just south of mill stone ct.
