I sent a photo of this via Facebook Messenger to the parking department, and whoever responded to me seemed to think it was a pretty big issue as well. But weeks later it's there still. I understand that there are reasons for manholes on streets, but to place a handicap spot right next to them is absolutely ridiculous. People who are already challenged with mobility do not want to step out on uneven pavement. Weird metal boxes that our trip hazards with dips in them that make puddles develop during rain is maybe the last place I would put accessible parking. Yes, that is the one area in front of fountain Square Mall that a slight ramp up for those who need it, but these metal boxes defeat the purpose. Even knowing that they're there. I have tripped on them several times. Luckily I haven't fallen and hurt myself. But somebody else might.

Plants in the yard of 312 w Dodds are fully blocking the sidewalk, forcing pedestrians to step out into a very busy street with no shoulder. This stretch is also fully inaccessible to anyone using mobility aids due to the plants.

Commissioner at Transportation Commission meeting on 9/28/2026 requested analysis of street lighting at the intersection of E Covenanter Dr and College Mall Rd. They complained that street lighting on the west side of the intersection is insufficient for safe pedestrian utilization of the intersection. Drivers heading north on College Mall turning left onto Covenanter, and drivers headed east from Covenanter turning right onto College Mall have a difficult time seeing pedestrians in the crosswalk at night or in low-light conditions. Currently there is a street light on the north east corner of the intersection (Location 965 S College Mall Rd, Bloomington, IN 47401 (39.1553, -86.4976)); however, the light does not appear like it was installed to illuminate the corner of the crosswalk in question. The existing light is not impacted by overgrown vegetation. In terms of follow up on this item, if there is any action staff can take on it, I would like to document staff response and the process via uReport and a staff report at a future commission meeting.

The driveways of my two rental properties at 1319 N Wash and 1321 N Wash. have taken a beating with all the heavy equipment and trucks that have continually backed in and turned around in those driveways over the past two years of construction of HUB 2. There are other driveways besides mine to the south that have broken concrete areas from the heavy equipment traffic. The two asphalt parking spots in front of 1321 were destoyed when Washington St. was being redone. The loose compacted surface is crumbly and makes for a treacherous surface to step out of a car on, esp. since it slopes quickly down to the new street level. I would like this surface to be repaved. The gully along N. Wash. St. that was created with the new street level, has been filled in many times with stone by Wells & Wells during construction of HUB 2, but soon washes out with the next couple of rains. This gully has gotten quite deep and is a significant drop off from the pavement level on Wash. St. This is an obvious liability to the City for anyone dropping off the edge while driving, which would surely cause car or tire damage. This section of Washington St. will certainly see lots more traffic soon when all the cars driving to and from the new parking garage will be using it to reach 19th St. Then, it could become a much bigger problem. Also, there are unsightly sections along the sidewalk in front of 1323 & 1325 N Wash Apt. bldgs. that have broken chunks of concrete and expose broken pipe just dangling, that is also in need of repair.

First, thanks for weed removal along Dodds, from Morton to Rogers. This problem is the condition of the Fagan Stone property. It has some wild flowers but is overgrown with weeds, shrubs, small trees, some several feet tall. Never cared for or mowed, it gives the neighborhood a trashy look.

Overgrowth of weeds some almost as tall as the street signs impede being able to see cross traffic. One needs to pull out into the actual street. This corner has always been a problem. This is a bike lane also.

This 4 way intersection currently has a two way stop sign. I’ve lived on Park for about 4 years and have seen many close calls, some with other automobiles, but also with scooters, bikes, and pedestrians. There is typically a lot of Templeton Elementary school traffic and kids walking to school crossing this intersection. Additionally the intersection view is very obstructed due to a large tree with undergrowth on the school property. Ultimately although I am no expert it seems like a four-way stop sign could solve many of these issues, in addition to trimming the lower limbs of the large tree.

Likely less than 12' lane clearance
