Hello
There are regularly cars blocking the bike lane on Washington between 4th and 3rd St's.
I wonder if there's a way for the city to make it clear to ride share drivers and customers of DaVinci that this is illegal and that they cannot block the bike lane.
Just a thought.
Thanks!

Hello-
There multiple cars blocking the bike lane on washington between 4th and 3r streets this evening a bit after 6 pm (as is often the case).
I wonder if there's anything the city can do about this; "patrolling the area" is definitely not working.
thanks!

Hello-
There were multiple cars blocking the bike lane on Washington between 4th and 3rd Sts this evening a bit after 6 pm, as there often is.
When there are 3-4 cars parked in the bike lane on this block, it really does cease to be a bike lane and is fully just a pick up/drop off lane for ride share drivers and pick up for davinci.
I wonder if there's anything the city can do about this?
If anyone in the chain would care to hear, I have a simple solution that would 100% guarantee the bike lane would not/could not be blocked by cars.
thanks again!

The North Washington Street bicycle lane from 12th to 10th street is significantly narrower than the 5 foot standard outlined in the City of Bloomington Bicycle Facility Design Guidelines document.
In addition, vehicles parked along the west side of Washington street routinely occupy some portion of this bike lane, reducing the width even further.
It seems to me that this stretch of road would be better suited for sharrow markings instead of the very narrow bike line that currently exists.

Several people walk/bike through this area. When it is dark it is difficult to see people who are walking in the road. Recommend a walking path and/or additional lighting.

1. one-way sign on SW corner is obstructed by pole-saw someone turn right off Atwater yesterday. 2. Can walk symbol flash across Atwater (south side) regardless of if someone hits the button? It's same pedestrians as Indiana/3rd intersection, and that one always shows "walk." Feels safer if they had the same behavior! Thanks :)

The metal drain cover in front of Mother Bear's at 1428 E Third Street has fallen in (again). It clearly is not stable and one day someone may trip over it.

See closed case #184736: in front of Mother Bear's on E Third Street. The metal drain cover on the sidewalk again has fallen in and is a tripping hazard for pedestrians. Maybe it is time to look for a more permanent solution rather than just putting it back in its place.

There should be a barrier between the Moose parking lot and Smith so that cars don't park in the road (causing bikes to exit their lane).
