Bike lanes in west 3rd/Adams/Kirkwood full of asphalt and debris. Very unsafe. Like trying to ride in sand.

Eastbound bike lane on W 3rd/Adams STILL full of asphalt, rocks and debris. I'd love to use the lanes that the city just spent money to install but its TOTALLY UNSAFE. COME ON!
bike islands are a terrible idea, I am an every day bike commuter and I just about hit 5 college kids as the got off the bus staring at their phones and texting. SERIOUSLY, COME ON.
Hello, I wish to voice my concern in the nicest way possible. I am not asking for compensation or threatening to sue. I just want to bring light to a situation that is possibly hazardous and/or costly. As I was biking to a meeting at work last night, I ran over a large steel plate in the middle of College Ave. It is in front of the construction site where the Waffle House used to be. It nearly threw me off my bike, and I could have easily been run over by other cars. Luckily, it just popped both my tires and no further damage was taken. I would love to see a warning sign, or some sort of reflective material on these large steel plates in the future. Just something to thank about. I thank you in advance for your responsiveness. Sincerely, Caleb Fossee
The ramps leading to the underpass have not been cleaned from snow nor ice. This problem was present yesterday morning and evening as well.
Snow.
This heavily used biker/walker commuter path from Morton onto the b-line gets blocked with snow everytime it's plowed, but it would be easy for the plow drivers to leave a bike/walk pathway so we don't have to carry our bikes over the snow several times a day.
Vehicles routinely stop in the bike lane near the pedestrian island at the Jordan Bus bus stop. The pedestrian islands are great! But if selfish motorists block the bike lane waiting to pick up their friend (the "diva drop-off" phenomenon), they don't work. This is a frequent issue during the day.
Lane lines have disapeared all along E 3rd St
There is a lot of sand and debris in the bike lanes on College and Walnut as they go under the railroad bridge. It's dangerous because it's difficult to get traction and keep from spinning out and falling into a lane of traffic.
