The sidewalk imprints about walking your scooters across the street are degrading, and are slippery. I was walking on Kirkwood, and the one on the corner in front of the Cafe Pizzeria (that corner) is where I slipped and hurt my right knee. I walk frequently there as I am a student at IU, and it's only slippery on top of the remneants of that imprint. Someone is going to get hurt or die even if they crack their skull!
On the NW corner of 10th and Forrest there is a hazardous situation. There is no sidewalk along Forrest, but there is on 10th. When someone is walking south on Forrest on the west side of the street, the person must walk in a grassy area that looks a bit like a sidewalk from a distance, though it is only grass. When that person gets to the intersection with 10th Street, there is a drop-off of about 4 inches to the 10th Street sidewalk that is unexpected and jarring. Perhaps a little ramp there would improve the situation, though the addition of a sidewalk along Forrest would be a more ideal remedy. It is not clear if this is a City or a Campus issue, so please forward if this request should be sent to IU instead.
Last night a snow truck backed into our mailbox and knocked it down. Please ask them & respond asap. Thx. Carrie. 812-329-8415
Desperately need plow over Madison st between 17th and 11th. As well as vernal pike as the county stops at city section. Cars are drifting in and out of lanes as the curves there are very dangerous, covered in snow, slick, and unplowed or salted.
About 20ft back from the southwest corner of 8th and Washington (between the street and the sidewalk) there is the bottom/stump of what was maybe a parking sign. If moving to the side to allow someone to pass on sidewalk or more likely someone getting out of the passenger side of a car could injure themselves, especially at night. Please remove or replace. Thank you.
Metal stub from broken off signpost on west sidewalk (even side of street) is a major tripping hazard. It needs to come out, and until that happens it really needs a cone or something to make it visible to pedestrians.
The current height/grade of the curb/sidewalk causes the bottom of vehicles to scrape the sidewalk. You can see the scrape marks in the included photo.
Behind my house cars are unable to get up the hill due to snow and ice. The back of my house faces the corner of Allen St and Adams St.
This bridge is closed to cars, but not people walking or on bike. Please don't pile the snow up blocking the path across the bridge - or if you can't avoid it, please shovel it clear. And on the west side of the bridge, please plow the street all the way to the bridge instead of stopping at the driveway. (And can you stop that storage business from just pushing all their snow into Allen? It stays icy there for weeks because of it.) Thanks!
