Sidewalk with severe damage
Sidewalk with severe damage
The bridge that is located here has some pretty big damage from being it over and over by moving trucks, box trucks, etc.. It was recently hit again and now has some noticeable damage of some broken rebar ( think that’s the name) that are now broken and sticking out. My concern is that the bridge that has a train go over it daily.. is not sound anymore after being hit so many times over and over. We drive under this bridge daily and I’m concerned it might fall or pieces break off. Has it been looked at by an engineer and after the last time it was hit? I think there is only a sign right before the bridge that people are not noticing until it too late!

Yet another accident in front of my office again... I hold the city of Bloomington and the state of Indiana responsible for the idiotic and dangerous changing of the lanes from 4 to 2 with a crazy middle turn lane where cars come head on at each other trying to turn left. I urge you to remove the bike Lanes and remove the center turn lane and turn this back into four lanes. People are going to get killed.
The curb is broken. The pieces are in the front yard of the adjacent property. I think the volunteer raingarden might be a better use of the space than a new curb. Less than a year since the concrete sanding / beveling was done, one more sidewalk square needs it. As to the beveling itself---looks bad and won't weather into something better. Safer, yes.
This ADA ramp is ADA in name only. That asphalt patch just makes it worse.
A painted center line is greatly needed on the newly resurfaced & heavily trafficked N. Kinser Pk. From BHSN to at least the bypass. High school kids, etc., often cross the center part of the sharp turn near the skate park endangering oncoming traffic.
The large sunken patch has asphalt edges that are starting to breakdown. The southbound edge is particularly bad now and the edge hits tires hard as it is crossed and speed limit. I drive this daily so I have noticed the decline. The whole big pay h needs final paving ASAP.
Our sidewalks were updated over the summer. However, the curbs were not repainted, so we have cars parked to the very edge of our driveways and in bus zones. I am terrified to pull out of my driveway every day, because it's impossible to see the road. And, just this afternoon, one of my students pulled out and got into a terrible accident. So please repaint the sidewalks to prevent more accidents.
