Scooters, Bike-share and Related Issues
- Case Date:
- 8/23/2023
I am a student at Indiana University. The electronic scooters have been insanely helpful to navigating the campus when busses are full or running late. I appreciate the no-parking zones, as they help keep the sidewalks freer of the scooters and allow for accessibile use. My issue currently is that there are official IU Campus buildings registered as no-parking zones. In particular, the Arts Annex building on 12th and Woodlawn. I am asking for the city of Bloomington to work with IU officials on clearly labeling campus buildings where scooter parking zones should be present. Then, the city of Bloomington takes that info to the electronic scooter companies to update their apps and services.

Please consider installing larger/louder/more prominent warnings at B-Line crossings where pedestrians and cyclists have the right-of-way, especially where the B-Line crosses near Wendy’s and the old hospital on 3rd(?) St. There are many students here new to Bloomington and may not be familiar with the rules, plus out-of-towners and visiting parents and others. Cyclists often don’t look before crossing. I’m a driver and I don’t want to hurt anyone. If more prominent flashing lights and sounds were used, I feel it would be much safer, as anyone can be easily distracted while multi-tasking, etc. Thank you!

Very high, unsafe car speeds on Morton between Dodds and Patterson, especially during commute times. There are many people walking on this street (primarily homeless) and I fear for their safety.

Homeless people, and garbage all over the newly vacated businesses on the east side of the square they’ve been there for two days. This needs to be cleaned up.

Hello, I live on the south side of Bloomington on Coolidge Drive. Down the road from broad view learning center. I had noticed last year that road maintenance had placed speed bumps on all the Broadview neighborhood streets but Coolidge road. They are also now adding permanent speed bumps throughout the neighborhood but haven’t seen any signs that they will out any on Coolidge. Coolidge has a hill coming down from the school leading to Rogers. People fly down this road at 40+ MPH just to slam on their brakes before getting to the stop sign. It is a major concern of mine since people walk the side walks regularly. I’ve had my mailbox hit several times because the road is also smaller than normal and with flying cars then people over correct and cause damage to peoples property and their own cars.
I would like to propose also adding a speed bump on Coolidge to help with the very fast and dangerous driving.
Thank you, Kegan Smith

I live in Fieldstone subdivision which I believe the city is attempting to annex. People speed constantly down Fieldstone Way, as many use it as a cut-through. There are many walkers, pets, and kids that live both off this road and on side streets, myself in the latter. Please consider a traffic study and/or speed bumps on this main street. Thank you.
