Hi, I am hoping you can forward this to the appropriate person to address this concern. This weekend I was biking with my son, going east on 1st St and entering Rogers-Binford campus by the playground. We were approaching the trail connection at the end of 1st street east of High St and I was largely focused on the road because it's a bit bumpy there. At the last second I realized there was a metal chain stretched halfway across the trail. I was able to slam on my brakes and skid to a stop, but it was quite a close call. The chain is not particularly visible and wasn't there the last time we went through. We came very close to getting hurt, and it seems likely that someone will get hurt if it stays as is. Someone going through at night is going to be in for a rough surprise. I understand you probably put the vertical post on a tire in the middle of the trail to discourage cars from driving through there and that seems fine, but please (please!) don't stretch a chain across the trail. Or if there's some critical reason that the chain is there, then at least hang a bunch of large bright flags from it or something. Thank you! - RS

Fiber contractors did not tunnel deep enough when they crossed the B-Line (what a surprise!). In the section of the trail between 1st and Dodds there is now a sort of "speed bump" spanning the width of the trail pavement from where they crossed from one side to the other.

When will the B-Line trail be finished between Adams Street and Fountain Drive? There has been no activity or progress on this "missing link" since 2024. What is the hold-up or reason for delay? Please provide a timeline for completion of this last section. Thank you.

High St and Wimbleton Ln (Inbound-Northbound), Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Will Milestone sod the recently added mounds of clay they added to the edges of the amended asphalt north of Wimbleton, or do they just expect the homeowners to try to establish new seed in the fourth week of October? They haven't seeded any of their patches of added clay, yet the drainage pattern will wash all of that new "soil" away in the next few weeks of rain. They found in vitally important to sod the easement along Arden, yet completely ignored the massive easements between Arden and Rock Creek Ct - watching them wash into the gutters and creek. And the whole area around Wimbleton is a drainage nightmare. This will come back and bite the city in the behind next flood season. Why do you hire these clowns? Are they related to Hamilton?

New steps were installed roughly two months ago at this Goat Farm turn. There is construction material debris that has remained here since, however. Please finalize this nice project with the removal of the unnecessary materials. Thank you!

4098 East 10th Street

Case Date:

I was traveling east on 10th St. and got into the right-hand turn lane (with turn signal on) to turn right/south on Smith Road. As I turned right, a car facing north on Smith Road turned left to head west on 10th St. and did not see an oncoming car and the eastbound car on 10th street had to brake quickly to avoid an accident...stopping within a few feet of the turning car. With the new traffic light at the Post Office intersection on 10th st, GPS is routing more people east/west on 10th street to/from Smith Rd and more locals are also using this route. This is turning an already dangerous intersection more dangerous. Turning left off smith onto 10th street requires timing to avoid a car coming east around the curve on east 10th street...and the same for turning left onto Smith off 10th street. Please consider a stop light at this intersection. Thank You.

Good afternoon. I live at 415 W. Graham Drive on the south side of Bloomington. I am writing in hopes of having a two- way stop become a four-way stop at the cross roads of Graham and Madison streets (and possible speed bumps put in). I have noticed (a lot) of drivers who turn on to Graham accelerate to a high speed because the west/ east of Graham does not have to stop at the intersection where Madison crosses (north to south). I cannot tell you how many times I have heard breaks squeal because the driver at the stop sign does not realize that cross traffic does not stop. Graham has a very high volume of foot traffic whether it be pedestrians walking to the bline, or their pets, or children walking home from the school bus. This makes for a very dangerous situation. I realize this is not a residential neighborhood- it's more of a city street, but I am concerned for everyone's well being and I believe making that a four-way stop would aide in motorists to slow down and be more aware of their surroundings. Thank you, Amanda

I was wondering if there could be signage added on W. 3rd Street to encourage people to use the "zipper" merge when traveling westbound towards HWY 37 during this construction? When I try to travel home each day, traffic is backed up from the highway to Liberty Drive, with all cars in the right lane, due to signs warning of the left lane being closed ahead (at the intersection of Fairfield Dr. and Highway 37). People are trying to be courteous, but they are actually slowing down traffic by doing this. I have seen a sign before that said "Use both lanes during backup" - could that be a possibility? I live on Fairfield Dr., so everyday is tough and people seem to be making poorer choices each day because of the traffic. Thank you for your time.

With the closure of Walnut Street Pike the amount of traffic (and speeders) going down Jaime Ln/Heather Dr as an unlisted detour is making the neighborhood less safe. Can the city please install temporary speed bumps?
