The sidewalks on Sare Road between Spicewood (as of the morning of 6/4/24) and the roundabout on Winslow have brush that is overgrown to the point that is narrows the sidewalk down so much that only 1 person can walk through. There are also thorn bushes that will scratch you if you meet someone at the same time either walking, running or biking. The sidewalk is also overgrown from the roundabout at the top of the hill on Winslow down to the roundabout at the Jackson Creek trail and then up High Street. These sidewalks are used a lot but the efficiency is greatly diminished since much of it is interrupted by brush. I'm not sure if this is the city's or the property owner's responsibility but it would be great if this could be addressed. Thank you.

People are confused with current Greenway project. Eliminate the stop signs. That is the whole point, to create a fluid prioritized bike/ped east-west pathway where folk don't have to constantly stop and yield to oncoming traffic.

I filed two reports three weeks ago – 188517 and 188518. Other than email messages, nothing has been done yet. The bicycle lanes on both North College and North Walnut are still plagued by heavy debris in several spots. These are TRAFFIC HAZARDS. Why does it take so long for you to respond?? If there were impediments to MOTOR vehicles, I highly doubt that you would wait three weeks to clear the road.

At the intersection of Pete Ellis and John Hinkle, where the multi-use path crossses the road, we need a crosswalk. This is a busy T intersection, and there are pedestrians.

New striping for bike lane on N Smith dangerous. It eliminates the lane shortly before Morningside then starts back up after. Go ahead and make consistent.

on the south side of Smith Ave just east of Walnut St (the north boundary of 405 S Walnut, Chocolate Moose), there is a strip of gravel between the sidewalk and the bike lane. the gravel frequently enters the bike lane and has caused my kid to fall there. its my impression that planning dept zoning enforcement is supposed to prevent this landscaping choice?? ps the photo is old but the problem is still present today. thanks!!

bridge over train tracks where rogers turns into madison (about 800ft north of 11th&rogers). NB bike lane (on east side of rogers) merge zone was inadvertently removed with new paint. originally, there was a merge zone (dashed white line) where the bike lane ends. when the bridge was resurfaced last year, they got the merge zone correct but added an extraneous solid white line north of the merge zone. when they repainted, they simply made the whole thing a solid white line. the current spot where the bike lane appears to end is a dangerous spot to merge. even with the striped line in the right place, this was an uncomfortable merge. it needs to be improved, not harmed. thanks!

HI, is there a bike safety class offered by the city? I work with newly arrived refugees who rely on their bikes for transportation and would like to enroll them in a general bike safety class. I appreciate any resources or options you may provide. Many thanks!

Please consider installing larger/louder/more prominent warnings at B-Line crossings where pedestrians and cyclists have the right-of-way, especially where the B-Line crosses near Wendy’s and the old hospital on 3rd(?) St. There are many students here new to Bloomington and may not be familiar with the rules, plus out-of-towners and visiting parents and others. Cyclists often don’t look before crossing. I’m a driver and I don’t want to hurt anyone. If more prominent flashing lights and sounds were used, I feel it would be much safer, as anyone can be easily distracted while multi-tasking, etc. Thank you!
