Near corner of Woodlawn/Atwater: alley that exits onto Woodlawn between Subway/apartment bldg. and rental house is dangerous. Shrubs on corner of Subway/apartment bldg. completely block the line of sight for drivers pulling out of this alley onto Woodlawn. Nothing can be seen that is approaching from the north and heading south. Have to pull car partially into the roadway to see if anything is coming. This is a heavily used alley due to an IU parking lot, IU office building and student housing rentals whose parking can only be accessed through the alley. And the area, itself, is active. This is even more dangerous to pedestrians/bikes/scooters. We cannot see them approaching and THEY CANNOT SEE US, either. It was bound to happen sooner or later and could have ended in injury or death. Yesterday I almost hit a jogger who was heading south on the sidewalk as I was trying to pull out onto Woodlawn. I couldn’t see him approaching due to the shrubs. He also could not see me! The shrubs completely blocked his line of sight and he couldn’t see that a car was approaching. The city has known about this for at least two years and hasn’t done anything to address it. My colleagues and I have tried repeatedly to have this fixed. Three cases were found in my search, but I know that there are more because this has been ongoing for longer than two years. Case #161202, 9/18/17, second half of complaint reported this. The case was closed with no mention of it having been addressed. Case #164914, 6/21/18, and case #167848, 3/21/19, are both still open. With neither showing any update that this is being addressed. Why? How can this be left unattended for so long? A whole year for case #164914! At some point there is going to be a tragedy here and it’ll be on the city for not having addressed this after multiple hazard reports.

The people building the additional floors on the building at 4th and College do such a terrible job of keeping the temporary sidewalk open. When it is open it is about 2 ft wide, and most of the time during the day they have dragged the fence right up against the concrete barriers and make people walk in the middle of traffic. STUPID!
