benches at bus stops There are a lot of elderly/handicapped individuals who ride the #2 Countryview bus to and from Krogers Seminary square. For some reason the benches on the west side of Krogers were removed. I contacted Bloomington Transit and they said it was the city that removed them. I was told it was because too many "street" people hang out there so this is to discourage that. It does not make sense since the bus stop on the east side of Krogers, closer to the park where those people hang out. The other thing that makes no sense is to inconvenience senior citizens over a situation that would seem to be something that the police patrol should be able to discourage by driving by often, especially those golf cart looking vehicles or bike patrols since it is part of the bline trail. Since the grocery is expanding and updating probably even more people will come there I would like to request that thosebenches be replaced. I can get a petition signed by passengers if it will do any good.

I am surprised, as I rode the bus a few days ago and to see a woman, handicapped in a mechanical chair strapped down only to see her and the chair overturn. To my surprise after helping the woman up and asking if she needed medical assistance, she stated no tand that incidents like that happen often and even if she needed help the bloomington transit never offer to help. You would think that it would be in the best interest of the transit system to take care of individual with special needs, as with many witnesses such neglect of elderly and special need individuals can cost the city millions.

There's a bus stop on Sare road a little east of Olcott that has a huge, horrible stain on the side of it that looks like someone vomited on it and needs cleaned.

Only one #7 is running this morning. Lots of people rely in that route's frequency to get to class or work on time.

Please get the 7 drivers on schedule; once again they are willing within a few blocks of each other, following each other around and messing up the schedule.

Sidewalk Snow Removal

Case Date:
12/31/2012

Wish to ask/request snow be removed from the 'front' of ALL BT stops, as at most all of te e. 10th st. stops, I noticed the fact there was considerable difficulty in being able to both read the BT6, 8 or ?? schedules as well as... When one is physically disabled or less able to asccess such as a "normal" individual, it best be able to sit-0down instead of stand and wait some 4-0+ minutes for a bus to come by...! --JAABRADY@GMAIL.com

I just contacted Bloomington Transit, but wanted to report to the city Transportation department as well. I driver I saw a few weeks ago littering his cigarette butt at the downtown BT station, was seen eating while driving today. Below is the email I sent to BT. I hope this driver is properly trained and/or reprimanded. This is unacceptable from anyone, but especially someone representing the city. "Hello, Do you allow your drivers to eat food while they drive? I assume not; this is a major safety risk that a bus driver should not be doing. However, the driver of 4W, today, October 14, leaving downtown at 6:10p was eating chips WHILE he was driving. Not just while stopped at lights, but as the bus was in motion, having at least only one hand on the wheel while transporting 10-15 people during rush hour. I believe this is the same driver I emailed about a few weeks ago who I saw littering his cigarette butts outside on the sidewalk adjacent to Walnut St. What an inconsiderate, selfish, unsafe driver. I hope a wreck doesn't happen because he's endangering people and can't wait to eat until he's at the station."

Is Bloomington Transit going to put a transit bus stop near Summit Elementary and Summit Ridge Addition? The stop would be very much (needed) and appreciated. Thank you.
