I love Bryan Park and have walked there nearly every morning for many years. In the past year or so, bikes have increased in numbers in the park and have become a significant danger to pedestrians. While there are many bikers who are careful and ride slowly down the park's paths, there are always a few bike riders who speed along the park's sidewalks and paths, endangering pedestrians and pets. They fail to announce themselves when they are passing people from behind and ride at speeds that are too fast to be safe. There are many older people who use the park as well as people with small children and pets. The bikers are especially dangerous to them. There should be some safe places for pedestrians in Bloomington and the parks should be among these places. Please keep the bikes out of the park and off of the sidewalks surrounding the park or please enforce bicycle speed limits in the park. This is an accident waiting to happen. An encounter with an unsafe biker is nearly a daily event in the park.
The southwest portion of the intersection of Rockport and Rogers is getting to be a mess. I am not sure if I would call it a pot hole or the road just disappearing, but there is a big section of pavement that seems mismatched / a hole, and could maybe use some help.
When you are heading north on Rogers and approaching 1st Street, the stop sign is getting tough to see due to the trees along that stretch.
There is an excessive build up of sand on the street at S. Morton Street and W. 2nd Street. The sand is on Morton, to the north of 2nd. A lot of cyclists come from the B-Line and get onto Morton at 2nd to head into the Prospect Hill Neighborhood. A friend I was riding with almost bit the dust (or, ate sand) trying to make the turn right there onto Morton on Sunday. Can this get swept up and cleared away? Thanks!
As you are heading east / southeast on Fountain Drive, at the intersection with N. Adams Street, when you look north on Adams to check for traffic, there is a lot of tree foliage impeding the view. It is very difficult to see traffic until you are pretty far into the Adams street intersection.
Cory Lane between 2nd and 3rd. Multiple potholes 6 or more inches in depth.
Lights out on B-Line, numbers 52, 95, 146, 147
