A full contractor-type heavy duty trash bag is almost in the ditch on West 7th Street, west of Adams Street, on the south side of 7th. It has been there for more than a week. I'm surprised it hasn't been washed all the way into the ditch.
The photograph of this hole was taken Sept. 27, 2019. The same hole can be found in case #161692 from Oct. 27, 2017. Danna Workman reported that the hole had been repaired, but I can assure you it was not. It is located between 1217 and 1221 N Madison (closer to 1217, and so large as to be observable from satellite photos and Google Street View). Even though I knew it was there, in the dark the other night, I nearly turned an ankle in it. The whole sidewalk along the west side of N. Madison between 16th and 17th is in a terrible state of disrepair and has been the entire time I've lived in this neighborhood. I know that landowners are supposed to maintain the sidewalks, but I also know that it's the city's duty to enforce that rule. What I don't know is why Danna Workman reported that the hole was repaired when it wasn't. In any event, the sidewalk is still a hazard. What are you going to do about it?
I recently saw a map of sidewalks that showed the westside of Madison between 16th and 17th was in "fair" condition (https://bloomington.in.gov/transportation/sidewalks/repair-assistance/map.pdf). This stretch of sidewalk is narrow and broken and one of the worst well-traveled pedestrian areas in town. The east side of the street, labeled poor on the map, isn't nearly as bad. At the very least, I'd like the map corrected so there is an accurate recored. But, what I'd really like done is that this block is fixed. It is heavily traversed and will likely see more traffic once the bus routes change. Thank you.
pothole
There are three curbs that I think should be painted yellow so cyclists (and cars) don't run over them: 1) 108 W 4th St. in front of WFHB station there is a very low curb that is easy to miss as a cyclist 2) 200 E 4th St there are two brand new curbs / bump outs for the Fifth-Third bank parking entrance. I'm glad they are there but if they were yellow they'd be easier to see, especially at night. Thank you, Jaclyn
203 east 10th on Washington side. Tree debris.
Just wanted to let you know...if you desire, you can close 170500. We purchased the property and are working to completely clear it.
Speed limit sign is completely covered with vines and overgrowth at the corner lot 1508 W. 11th St but on the Oolitic St side of the property. Fire hydrant is also overgrown.
Pothole on 17th between Madison/Kinser Pike and Maple street, in eastbound lane. Getting worse daily.
1626 E. Treadwell and associated streets out to Headley Road are in need of new blacktop. Your schedule runs out in 2018. Treadwell has been in the city paying taxes for over ten years. Thanks
