While weed wrangling today (Asian Bittersweet/Japanese Stiltgrass/Multi-Flora Rose), we found this Beech Tree down on one of the paths in Winslow Woods. It is on the left fork of the path closest to the community garden. We removed enough of the limbs and brush from the fallen tree for visitors to use the path. We do not know city protocol for mitigation/removal of fallen trees in greenspaces, so we left the balance of the removal for the city. Thank you.

I was told that the playground is slated for replacement in spring 2021, which is great! I would like to suggest that the city consider adding a "Natural Playground" in the wooded area behind the shelter. Natural playgrounds are so amazing for kids, and an attraction for the community. There are two great ones nearby- Cool Creek Park in Indy, and at the Louisville Nature Center in Louisville! See https://childhoodbynature.com/the-big-deal-about-nature-playgrounds/

The playground structures at this park are in really poor condition. The rubber surfacing is falling apart, and the equipment is quite degraded. It needs to be replaced. When is this playground scheduled for maintenance/ replacement?

Yesterday I visited the playground at Winslow Woods Park with my son. The playground space is in dire need of repair. The rubber flooring is patchy, worn, and disintegrating, creating trip hazards. The climbing jungle gym is rusty, with peeling paint and worn plastic. It does not seem structurally unstable, but could use at least some sanding and repainting to make it safer for young children. My experiences at other city parks and playgrounds have all been wonderful, so this seems out of character. I'd be interested to know if there is a barrier to repair/replacement of equipment at this park, if it is slated for removal, or if there is anything I can do as a resident to help advocate for its upkeep. We love to visit our parks and appreciate all the good work the Parks Department does for our community!

The shrubbery along the west side of the trail around the Winslow sports complex needs to be pruned back especially in the area near the wooden bridge. It's growing halfway across the trail. The shrubbery near the south east corner of the trail might also benefit from some pruning.

Highland between Winslow and the Y needs to be resurfaced. Constantly patching the road only makes it more unsafe for bicycles, and this is a major North-South bike route. Multi-ton buses run over this route about 40 times per day. This section needs an upgrade to handle this load.

Fix the bike routes we have! Placing patch over a patch over another patch might be good for cars, but it make biking dangerous. The stretch of Highland between the Y and Winslow are already very dangerous because of speeding cars and poor visibility around bends in road. Add poor road conditions and this makes biking very dangerous. Someone is going to get killed.
