City busses keep parking here and block a blind turn. They sit there for hours not moving an inch. The dude I saw that was parked there was reading a book in the drivers seat. There is a bus stop up the road. why not park there? Parking at my marked location just created an incredibly dangerous situation where only one car can fit past the bus in a blind turn. Ive almost been hit several times because of people rounding the corner too fast and realizing that there is a bus blocking the two way street. I dont know why but the4y sit there for HOURS. there are definitely safer places to park during their breaks. Please fix this issue, I dont want to have an accident there.

The city bus routinely drives through the Fritz Terrace neighborhood too fast. I don’t have a radar gun but the speed limit is 20 and they are obviously going over. On Saturday 5/21 sometime around 3:00 I believe the bus hit and killed a neighbor’s dog near 3131 Valleyview and continued their route. I did not witness the event but was told by a neighbor the bus stopped for a moment at the same location the dog was hit, near the same time, then continued on. I would like the transit department to identify who the driver was and see what the story is on why they did not stop and try to help or identify the owner of the dog, or if I am mistaken and the driver claims it was not them and perhaps maybe they witnessed the event and could provide more details. Even without the issue of who hit the dog, the bus needs to slow down and not exceed the 20 MPH speed limit. There are lots of kids in this neighborhood, the streets are narrow and the curve at the top of the hill is a blind spot for oncoming traffic. Please address this issue before someone gets hurt or killed.

Problems with taking the public transit to public govt. offices, such as local housing authorities (issuing Sec 8 HCV vouchers, Public housing subsidies, etc.), Bloomington Township Trustee's office (off W. 17th St.), Trustee Kim Alexander, for receiving fundamental necessities of life.

Do private student housing shuttles get all the privileges get all the privileges of City buses? They definitely shouldn't but obstruct traffic constantly that a car wouldn't be allowed to do. City transit rightly should get priority and is open to all but police need to stop private shuttle abuse.

I'd love to see a bus stop in Matlock Heights. I am not comfortable with my kids crossing the Bypass to get to existing bus stops, which really limits their ability to ride public transit. Thanks!

Part 2 of my complaint (I thought I'd have more room to give details.) (1) Bloomington Transit bus driver Randy turned the corner into the Transit Center so fast I fell from the side seat to the floor and my bags fell from the seat too. I landed on my feet. Randy didn't say anything. When I was exiting, I said, "I fell - I could have gotten hurt!" and HE SAID NOTHING. Not an apology - NOTHING. He obviously didn't care. This happened months ago and was reported to Eli McCormick, Customer Service Manager, when it happened. (2) Since then Randy has made ridiculous complaints to me when I get on the bus - all these have been reported to Eli M and I've asked him to preserve the videos from those incidents. (3) Randy is getting more and more dangerous, and now swerves right at me in front of the main library on Kirkwood when he sees me there. He drives too fast and heads RIGHT AT ME! No other driver in town is doing this, nor has done this, in the 3 1/2 years I've lived here. I've seen him stop in the street and not even swerve right into the stopping lane when he doesn't see me and other passengers are waiting there. On January 31st, he drove at me fast and Eli said, "We've reviewed that video... you were on the curb, and we don't feel that's a problem." Eli said another manager analyzed him before that, and said he was going 18 miles an hour on approach. Other drivers have told me 10-15 mph is reasonable. On February 5 he aimed right for me and when I didn't move he wailed on the horn. When I got on, he said, "You're not supposed to stand in the street!" I said, "I wasn't in the street - I was in the parking lane - and YOU'RE not supposed to aim for people who are STANDING STILL!" I've told Eli to preserve this video and I have to request it at the City Legal Department. I filed Police Report #B1905058 with Officer Crider, Badge #1369 that night. Randy is dangerous, vindictive, childish, and a LIABILITY for Bloomington Transit and this city! I don't see why Eli M and that company don't understand that.

Bloomington Transit bus driver Randy is harassing me by driving his bus right at me too fast, and making ridiculous complaints when I get on the bus - all in retaliation for legitimate complaints I've had to file about him.

Can the bus slow down a bit on Morningside Drive please? Scared a kid will get hit. I appreciate the speedy service and option in the neighborhood, but also value our pets and kids not expecting a big bus to zip by. Thank you!
