There's a syringe on the new wall along Rockport Road at Ralston/Rockport. I'm not excited about removing this. Can you help? Thank you.
Uneven idewalk in front of Vectren Energy building on south side of 4th street is a hazard.
looking for resolution from previous case #182211. Can someone please reach out to me about a curb potentially going around my property to stop the trucks, cars, and standing water from eating away at my yard.
We recently had a tree removed from the spot shown, as well as having a tree trimmed on the other side of our driveway. The tree that was removed was rotted out as it was deemed unsafe. We moved to this location in 2019 with a new baby on the way. Fast forward 2 years and just after the tree was removed by the City of Bloomington, our now 2 y/o plays in front of our house and has now fallen multiple times because of the drop off on the sidewalk due to the tree roots that have lifted the sidewalk. Additionally, small animals have now made this area their home. This is the same problem on the opposite side of our driveway by the electrical boxes due to overgrown root systems of trees that were frankly too large to plant in there specific spots.The lift in the sidewalk from the tree roots has caused a major trip/fall hazards that are at least a 6in drop. Please advise.
Can the sidewalk at xxx East 7th Street be shaved down to eliminate the height difference between the two adjoining slabs? See photo attached. This height difference can be dangerous for westbound cyclists riding on the sidewalk who need to negotiate both a quick right turn and a left turn to enter the SR46 underpass. Now that an asphalt multi-use path has been built at Relato Bloomington at the intersection of Pete Ellis Drive and Longview Avenue, westbound cyclists are more apt to ride on the path/sidewalk vs. the street, and will continue to ride on the sidewalk all the way to the underpass. Cyclists will be going at speed since it is downhill westbound. To negotiate this sidewalk height disparity, while at the same time negotiating a sweeping turn, poses a dangerous situation that can be easily eliminated.
Sidewalk and driveway entrance concrete is torn up and needs to be repaired. My wife is blind and just walking in front of our house is dangerous for her and anyone walking by.
Accessibility Issue: No Curb Cut. Intersection of E Covenanter and the entry to Kroger's gas station (unnamed road) This intersection has no curb cut which forces wheelchair users to go out into the street, which is a traffic hazard and dangerous. Please fix.
Ms. Becker called to complain that a section of sidewalk on Sare Road between East Rogers Road and Sheerwood Christin Church's drive was caked with mud. I asked Asst. Engineering Services Manager, Rick Alexander, to determine whether it was an erosion control issue. He determined that it was not and stated that the sidewalk just needs cleaned up by the property owner. Ms. Becker would like a call back after an inspection has been completed. The sidewalk is on the south west corner.
The roundabout just east of Sherwood Oaks Church.. Sare road. I reported a piece of concrete there on east side of roundabout.. Sunday I noticed it was still there and wanted to let you know again. It’s not a big deal but I enjoy the roundabouts and this broken concrete is an eyesore Also the roundabout west of Sherwood Osks church aft High street and Goat park has a broken curb section and concrete chunk on west side of roundabout Thanks
