Tent pitched ON YHE SIDEWALK in front of People’s Park this morning. LIs this allowed on a public sidewalk? Please ignore the biking/walking info. Below…accidentally touched that and cannot delete that part of the comment.
Gravel in sidewalk and street, Falling hazard.
During the school drop-off and pickup this intersection has a large amount of traffic. This is also the main corridor that people biking and walking use to get to to school and unfortunately is was not design to be compatible with both large amounts of student driver traffic, and walkers and bikers. This whole intersection as well as the path going into the school needs to be redone to promote more biking among the youth(including me). A well done biking friendly intersection and route into school would improve the safety for walkers and bikers as well as encourage more young students to walk and bike to school which would decrease the amount of traffic as well as the carbon emissions.
24/7 No Turn on Red laws certainly have increased pollution and that causes asthma and other heath consequences. I assume this was done for bicycle safety, however, bikers flaunting traffic laws are what have caused the near misses in my experience. Just recently, a few days apart, bikers going west, blew through stop signs which give First street traffic the right of way. Had I not braked hard, each might have been hit.
the multi use path or trail shown on https://bloomington.in.gov/arcgis/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=f262775229f74b349c853bd13ad86841 which is East Moores Pike between Clarizz and Fenbrook does not exist. People go there expecting one. The sidewalk there is ok but not a multi use path.
When heading east on 7th st between Washington and Lincoln, we seriously need a sign pointing out to drivers that it is a bike lane only on their right. There's a lot of confusion with the parking lot entrances there. This is the 2nd time I've seen a car driving in the bike lane, then turn left on Lincoln.
Ever since 4th St re-opend (one lane, then all lanes) people/vehicles are constantly RUNNING the STOP SIGN northbound at 4th & Lincoln. I walk through this intersection at least twice each day. Many just blow through this intersection without even looking. It happened, again, this morning. I was half-day across Lincoln going east. The go-straight lane stopped, but the turn right lane did not even look my way and went ahead and turned right without stopping. The stop signs are clearly visible. What the heck?
Students going to TNMS often try to cross here instead of walking to the roundabout where the crosswalks are. Can a crosswalk be placed here?What about the school zone signs with flashing lights that positioned by other schools? Tri-North's school zone signs are still located on 11th street/Blair Ave where the old building was.
There are no crosswalks on Rogers St. between 2nd and 3rd streets. This road segment is a large hill, making it difficult to cross safely on foot. I have had many close calls trying to walk or bike across this road segment, which is supposed to be a safe, residential area. Thanks.
