This is an urgent public safety, transit operations, and traffic flow hazard linked directly to active uReport cases #213337 and #213273. Using the 302 S. Walnut St. terminal platforms as an unmanaged, unsupervised triage, cooling, and heating center without any specialized oversight relying on passengers to keep the peace and make reports is actively disrupting public transit vehicle traffic. Large crowds, sprawling personal property, bed rolls, and temporary camping items are spilling directly off the designated bus bay benches and onto active boarding paths, pedestrian walkways, and loading lanes. This severe congestion introduces major physical obstructions, causing transit buses to delay docking, creating hazardous driver line-of-sight blind spots, and drastically slowing down passenger boarding flow during early morning and peak commute windows.Furthermore, this operational chaos results in constant, daily ambulance and emergency vehicle responses to the platforms. Due to the restricted lane space and structural congestion at this terminal, responding emergency vehicles routinely block active bus departures and transit traffic lanes. This persistent gridlock forces paying passengers to miss critical medical appointments and lose employment opportunities due to unpredictable, blocked transit vehicles.Compounding this vehicle hazard, the hostile platform environment has caused a severe collapse in off-peak passenger retention. Long-term, multi-year riders are abandoning Bloomington Transit because paying commuters trying to access their designated routes are treated as trespassers in an intimidating, territorial space. Surrendering active loading zones and emergency exits to non-transit use is an unsustainable municipal performance failure that violates Title 15 transit zone compliance. Clear the active bus bays, remove the obstructions from the loading platforms, and restore unobstructed lane access for public vehicles.
I am requesting more enforcement of the no-smoking rules at the Bloomington Transit Center? Every time I am at the transit center, at least one person is smoking at the bus terminal waiting area outside, next to the no smoking signs. I would be able to use the fixed route buses more, instead of BT Access, if there wasn't smoking at the Transit Center terminal.
Please trim back plants so wheelchair can use transit center sidewalk without brushing the plants
A winding asphalt path runs through the middle of Bryan Park between Woodlawn and Henderson. Originally it was cinder-paved and used primarily by recreational pedestrians and runners. It now serves cyclists, as a connector between the bike-pedestrian lanes on Sheridan and Southdowns on the east and the Allen Street Greenway on the west. I believe it is state law that cyclists yield to pedestrians but on this path many cyclists don't warn pedestrians when they are overtaking nor do they slow down when pedestrians are present. Because of the path's curvy nature; defensive cycling really requires slower speed. Please post notices at the Woidlawn and Henderson ends of the path, alerting cyclists to slow down and be aware of the blind curves.
My son is a player at BHSN and a paying member of the Cascades golf course (as required in order for him to play here during the golf season). Last week his team had a match at the golf course. Tee time was 315 and the boys were required to be off the course by 530 in order for league play. My parents came to watch him play. My parents are 69 and 74 and my dad is on dialysis with 4 blockages in his heart. He OBVIOUSLY cannot walk a golf course. My mother had contacted the course the day before to see if they could reserve a cart and was told ‘you don’t need to reserve one, it will be no problem just come in and get one and it will be $16’. On the day of the match, she showed up and went inside to get a cart and was told by the people working that day that there were no carts available because they had league that night. My mom then asked about what she was told the day before and the gentleman working the counter said ‘we don’t rent carts for high school matches. Sorry’. Sherie. Explained that my dad was a dialysis patient and unable to walk the course and he again said ‘sorry’ and dismissed her. The picture I have attached shows where all the carts were lined up at 515 when we came off the course. There were carts that were lined up in front of the clubhouse the whole time the boys were playing waiting for the league - which again DID NOT START until after the boys were off the course. There were carts available but they would not rent them but rather let them sit there for over 2 hours waiting for league players to arrive. We have been notified by the coach that this may be a “new” expectation from the course from here on out as they had changed the rules without discussing this with the high school. This is a CITY OWNED COURSE therefore there should be an expectation that the course is expected to follow the American Disability Act legislation. Players of any age can play golf whether they can walk the course or not. This is unacceptable and a complete disregard for ADA legislation which are federal laws - not local. We were not asking for anything for free. We understood we would be paying for a cart but the fact that multiple carts sat there for hours not being used but not available to someone with an obvious disability is not only morally unacceptable but appears it may be illegal as well. This is blatant discrimination against someone with a disability. In addition, my son is a paying member of this club yet I am Now being told that we can not even practice on this course as we have in previous years. This is unacceptable in multiple ways. I expect a response
I live at Fountain Park Apartments and am constantly witnessing dangerous crossings of pedestrians on E10th St and Pete Ellis Drive. There is no crosswalk at the intersection on either side of the outlined location. I think adding a crosswalk and pedestrian crossing light at the intersection would prevent a lot of these issues. Thank you for considering this request!
Street light is out
Bed bugs
There is a large spool of wire which was left adjacent to the city bus stop outside Templeton. This was left there during fiber installation well over a year ago. Maybe more.
