Drain not draining
There is a longstanding and ongoing drainage issue affecting the area in front of 3504 and 3505 S Westminster Way in Bloomington, IN. Every time it rains, significant flooding occurs on our street, making it unsafe for residents to leave their homes and hazardous for vehicles attempting to pass through the area. On previous occasions we cad cases of drivers have become stranded in the large pool of water that forms directly in front of these properties. This persistent flooding presents a serious public safety concern for both residents and motorists. In addition, we are living with the constant fear that continued inadequate drainage may eventually result in flooding damage to our properties. Despite the recurring nature of this problem, the existing street drains have not been properly cleared or improved, and additional drainage infrastructure appears necessary to address the issue effectively. We respectfully request that the City take immediate action to investigate and resolve this matter as soon as possible.
Our cul de sac becomes a lake every time we have a hard rain. We have complained about this for years & the resolution your engineers came up with were 2 seeds in th Our cul de sac N Feeds old c Our cul de sac, South side of N Feerwood CT turns into a lake every time we have a hard rain! Your people decided to put 2 large sewers in the curbs on Rose wood Dr which does no good! Now because someone at the city has decided NOT to clean streets, its even worse because all the debris is now in our street. I would appreciate for someone with common sense to help relieve this problem.
Ongoing issue at the intersection of Cambridge Drive and Sheffield. The pavement on East Cambridge Drive has been deteriorating for many years. The road has only been patched for the past two decades rather than fully repaved, and the surface continues to break down. Large amounts of loose debris wash into the storm drains during rainstorms. The drains frequently become clogged, and the street often floods as a result. This picture is from a week ago but the drains are even more blocked as of today.
We have an area right next to some storm drain manhole covers where a section of ground has fallen in. This area is starting to cave in under the roadway as well.
The drain coming up to my garage floor is backed up and flooding with the recent rain. I have the drain cleaned out now, but the water is still at surface level.
A hole has opened up in the ditch in front of my house, though I'm not sure if it is on my property, my neighbor's, or if it is in the city right of way. It's close to the street. It's about 18" wide and a little more than 24 in. deep. I don't know if the hole extends laterally under the street or in another direction. Please lmk if you need any additional info or if I should direct this to a different dept. Thanks!
South Village Ct: there is one little drain at the end of the street and when there is a down pour for a length of time it can’t handle it and water starts to back up getting quite deep in the street! One of our neighbors knows about this and will get out in the water and clean the drain, which we shouldn’t have to do. Every Tuesday is recycle day on our street and loose trash floats down to this drain. The water has come up in our driveways and yards. Hopefully this can get resolved. I have lived here 24 years and nothing has been done about it. Thank you
