Potholes at this intersection
Sorry - it's dark and I can't get a photo but in today's storm a very, very large branch (the size of a small tree) from my neighbor's yard fell and is blocking the alley behind my house. No traffic can move through the alley. There also seems to be a downed wire.
There is a stop sign at the intersection of S Henderson St and E Maxwell Ln that is difficult to see at night. It is the sign seen by traffic heading south on Henderson. It is high - almost in the foliage of a tree - and has either lost its reflectivity or is angled so that it is not effective.
The bicycle crossing button at Walnut and Allen on the south west corner is missing.

This section of sidewalk close to 3016 E. Daniel St. in Kensington has been lifted by several inches likely due to a tree root below. Recently witnessed an individual in a wheelchair who had been at Schmalz Park almost tip over as she attempted to roll across it. It is very unsafe and will most certainly cause someone to have an accident if not addressed. It is hard to tell from the photo how bad this section truly is, must be seen in person.
Sidewalk behind Bed Bath & Beyond on 280 N Gates Dr before Alexander Dr has two panels that are trip hazards. Believe to be caused by tree roots.

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.
