Biking & Walking

2866 W Tapp Rd, Bloomington, IN 47403, USA

Case Date:
5/28/2020

I dropped by car off yesterday at World Wide Auto, and was biking home (heading west) along the sidepath on the north side of Tapp Road. Somewhere between Deborah Drive and Weimer Road, there is a drive cut, and the sidepath has a sudden and difficult to see drop of about 8 inches to the ground. There is no warning of this drop, and I had quite a crash because of this. This needs to be corrected ASAP. Thanks!

120 S Park Ridge RD

I'm very concerned about the new surfacing on E. 3rd by the State, but I know the City supported it. I know there was not going to be a physical barrier at this point but did think the bike lanes would at least by wide. Please please make sure they are wider than the ones on N. Smith or very very few will feel safe using them. I supported the project as thought it would give me a biking option, but I'm fearful now it'll just be slimmer roads and no real bikable upgrade. Thanks for any input you can give the State!

Biking & Walking

1502 S Hathaway CT

Have reported this before, never got an answer. I was told it was something to do with the city and guard rail study. The trail at this location is below the grade of the road on Moores Pike. I requested evaluation for a guard rail to protect walkers from a car leaving the road and rolling over the hill. This is a high speed road and it is very unnerving to walk along this trail. Send someone out and stand there to see what I mean.

Biking & Walking

1111 N Monroe St, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA

Case Date:

There is a "cave in" on the sidepath along Monroe St. It is 45 inches in diameter and 17 inches deep. Looking through an opening you can see that it is hollow underneath. Stand alone pavement was supporting the weight of bicyclists and pedestrians before it caved in. This sidepath is on a long steep hill that Some cyclists are may descend at great speed. The "cave in" is hard to see by a cyclist approaching it. This is an extremely dangerous situation. Yellow cones should be placed around it as soon as possible.

The new bump outs on East Allen are incomplete and insufficient. Cars are zooming by kids walking and on bicycles. There needs to be brightly colored curb in addition to the tall reflective posts that were there before. Fix this quick before a kid gets hit!

Rogers St and Rockport Rd, Bloomington, IN 47403, USA

Case Date:

I'd like to request a cross walk/light for the intersection of Rockport & Rogers. There are a couple there on other sides of the intersection but there isn't one for people wanting to cross Rogers on the north side of the intersection.

Resident requested a crosswalk be painted for child safety on E Morningside across Sheffield. Asked the neighborhood association to do it but I figure we need to run that by the City first. If that's something you can do or authorize. A street art one would be awesome but normal is fine too. The striping on the crosswalks of N Smith and Morningside is getting a little worn again too.

See case 177221 https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=177221 The resolution here is disappointing. Cyclists need to be able to clear intersections before lights turn red. For reference, my bike weights in at about 30 pounds and is not lightweight.

Please finish the new bike path on S High street quickly. The unfinished section between Wimbleton and Meadowbluff has been a hassle, but its now getting dangerous as children and families have to walk on high street to get around construction. This needs to be resolved immediately.

It is very hard right now to cross from bikes or walking across east third. The crossing at third and Smith is not well marked and has no crossing signal. We bike on Longview Greenway but are feeling concerned with the car focused development just approved by planning commission. We need safe biking and walking and reasonable vehicular congestion. Please help and don't punt this off as a state issue after you narrowed east third while massively increasing density. Those are fine but do so in a way that keeps neighborhood safe and still connected to town.
