The plants on both sides of the path are a little overgrown but the real problem is a very solid low hanging branch that is a real hazard. And another low hanging branch that is likely to hit you in the face with pears.
There is a pedestrian activated crossing from the Switchyard park over to the B-Link Trail on South Walnut. Activating the signal triggers a red light for traffic on South Walnut, but I constantly have issues here with traffic blowing through the red light, often at high speeds. Is there anything that can be done to make this crossing safer for pedestrians and cyclists?
At the intersection of Circle Dr and Ruby lane, 8 large plots of very tall decorative grass, along the Ruby Lane side of the property at 1717 Circle Dr, block the view of oncoming traffic from the east. These need to be removed.
Are there any plans to put a ramp down from the bike lane down to street level here? This is the newish bike lane that runs behind Black Lumber, and should lead into the Switchyard Park. At the Walnut St crossing there is still a curb here, making the transition to the road difficult for bikes.
This property was a house that was converted into a garage which is a building code violation on multiple levels. The property has broken down cars all the way up to the road, and the property is being operated as a business for fixing cars which is a complete violation of city ordinances.
Sidewalks on Maxwell end just before my house and I would like to request that they be extended. I have small children and we live right at Miller and Maxwell, which is an active intersection with a lot of folks turning from Miller towards my house. My kids enjoy riding their bikes, but we don't ride nearly as often because I worry about them going out into the street. I would like to request that sidewalks be extended down at least to cover my house.
The corner of the construction fence on E. 10th St. where Crosstown Shopping Center used to be (by Sobon and Jimmy John's) keeps getting pushed out more and more into the sidewalk, making it inaccessible to wheelchairs and a trip hazard even for those with no mobility issues.
I filed a Ureport months ago, and the problem was partially fixed. The high-intensity white flashing lights on top of the building are no longer on when I sleep. The jumbo screen is still on though throughout the night. I have gone to the VERVE twelve times about this jumbo screen flashing into my room when I try to sleep. They always tell me the settings have it where it is suppose to turn off at 9:30 PM, when the rooftop closes. I remind them that the settings aren't doing as they say, and they tell me they will fix it. Management says they use an app to adjust the hours of the jumbo screen, so I cannot comprehend why they still cannot fix the time setting considering how user friendly and simple the app is. I have lived at State Bloomington (next to the VERVE) for two years. The VERVE was done being built in August, and since then I have lost tremendous amounts of sleep over their rooftop lights. If a Bloomington official could please end this problem permanently I would be incredibly grateful. I cannot keep losing sleep over this because it is messing my mental health up and making me tired every day.
