There is a pole/light at this stop that has metal bands wrapped in two spots for a trash can to be attached. Although the trash can is not attached and sits beside the pole, that is not the problem. Today, one of the metal bands (which sticks out at the end of its seal point) sliced my leg open. Luckily I had a first aid kit, but that is dangerous.
We're having a lot of issues with the bus stops being located on our properties and it bringing disturbances to our center. We request that all bus stops get moved off of the private property as soon as possible. Thank you.
Homeless problem at the bus stop causing other individuals to feel unsafe
At the bus stop on W 3rd St and S Westplex Ave there are homeless individuals who camp out at the bus stops; they have mattresses, trash, and needles around them. This situation makes it unsafe for other individuals trying to ride the bus as well as causing a disturbance to the neighboring businesses. I've contact the transportation department and filed a uReport but nothing changed.
An unknown individual has slept in the bus stop shelter for the past week. The area surrounding the shelter has litter scattered about consistently. I do not know if the litter is from this individual. It's a health hazard.
The new bus shelter has been converted into a homeless shelter with blankets. Trash is overflowing, stuffed in a Dollar General cart. Why can’t someone clean this up? We feel unsafe when waiting for the bus!
Does Bloomington Transit empty trash every day at the stops? This can has been full for days, now it’s being piled into a Dollar General cart
Dollar General cart of trash has been sitting at the bus stop for days. Right across the street from Crawford and
Cars always blocking the wheelchair ramp and bus stop everyday
