Bus Services (Bloomington Transit)

High & Greenbriar OB, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
5/30/2024

AITA? For the 3rd time in 3 years: can I ask that we move the southbound bus stop sign on High at Breenbriar 30 ft to the north, out of the grass next to the drainage culvert, and to a location that allows passengers to exit the rear of the BT bus without the danger of falling into the unrepaired sinkholes next to the culvert? If the bus stops earlier (30 ft north), the passengers that exit the bus to the rear (as required) step off near the sidewalk and not in the middle of a grassy easement with a LARGE SINKHOLE next to the culvert. Why - oh why, is this so hard? When the bus stops at the correct location it doesn't even block Greenbriar traffic onto High. Sorry for the snark, but again Bloomington this is the third request in 3 years. Just move the sign north 30 ft.

City Performance

Henderson St and Wylie Farm Rd at BHS South, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
7/26/2021

Leaving Winslow Farms today at about 7:10 am and traveling toward Winslow Road, we saw a City pickup truck on the new multi-use path heading toward the high school. There was a jogger who obviously had to get off the path to allow him to pass. The truck was going at a relatively high rate of speed--probably as fast as the street speed limit. The street was not crowded, though it is being ground down and is bumpy. That sidewalk is often very busy--trucks have no business on that path at any time.

Blocked Sidewalk

Henderson & Brenda, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
11/29/2020

On the south east corner of the intersection of Henderson St. and Brenda Ln the sidewalks around the bus stop have some very low hanging tree branches that obstruct clear passage along the sidewalk. It would be great to see this get trimmed back.

Street Snow Removal

Grimes & Walnut, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
2/6/2022

The gas station at the corner of Grimes and Walnut has created a traffic hazard with snow. Their parking lot was plowed out onto Grimes to the south of their property. The snow pile is blocking 50-75% of the eastbound traffic lane on Grimes. You cannot get by on Grimes headed east if there is traffic in the westbound lane of Grimes. Will the City let the gas station and its snow removal service know that turning their private problem (snow on their property) into a public problem (impeding traffic) is unacceptable? They might need to clean it up or be fined, if not both. The snow pile will not melt very quickly. There is a lot of snow they pushed into the road.

Blocked Sidewalk

East Moores Pike

Case Date:
6/8/2020

The sidewalk on the north side of Moore's Pike by the AMC Theater is overgrown. Bushes nearly block the sidewalk and the grass is waist-high. I'm guessing that they have ceased caring for the property due to movie theaters being closed.

Blocked Street

East Longview Avenue

Case Date:
1/9/2014

Why is the sidewalk before and after the traintracks on Pete Ellis Drive never shoveled? In the three big snowfalls this year - nothing. And previous years. This is a highly pedestrian area.

Biking & Walking

East 7th Street

Case Date:
8/9/2017

In the transition from Longview Ave. to E. 7th St., the asphalt multi-use lane turns into a double-wide cement sidewalk. I've always stayed on the path because it links directly to the underpass at the bridge and seems and extension of the bike path. But today someone told me, "Get off the sidewalk idiot!" I pride myself on following the rules of bicycling. AQm I right or wrong to be using that stretch of cement? Also, Smith Road between 3rd St. and Moore's Pike is a disaster for bicyclists--way too narrow to safely bike on the road, but only a cement sidewalk on the west side, which then vanishes to become a multi-use path on the WEST side of the road, which then vanishes again at the corner of Moore's Pike to become a sidewalk traveling west. How can my kids safely ride their bikes down Smith Road!?
