Cars are parking in front of 302 E 19th St. in the street along the very edge of the pavement, restricting traffic on 19th St. and obstructing the view at the intersection of Lincoln and 19th. This should be a no parking zone.
I am an Adopt-a-Drain volunteer and I just cleared NODE 3285 at the intersection of E.Southdowns Drive and S. Woodlawn Avenue. I have attached a photo and the debris I cleared is ready for removal. V/r, Mark
I’m replying to this ticket and message: https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=206800 Closed by Driss Tahir At this time, the City no longer maintains individual painted parking space lines on residential streets. These markings are not required for parking regulation, and our maintenance program focuses on regulatory and safety related pavement markings such as crosswalks, stop bars, centerlines, and ADA parking. Parking is still permitted along the block, and vehicles may continue to park as usual. If you have any questions or concerns about access, visibility, or safety, feel free to reach back out. Thank you! Thank you for the clarification. I understand that individual residential parking lines are no longer part of the City’s regular pavement-marking program. However, I would like to request a safety and visibility review for our block, based on the guidance you mentioned about access, visibility, and safety concerns. The fading of these lines has created some issues for our immediate neighbors that fit these categories and affect our street’s access and safety. It should be noted that this particular street is quite narrow and is a two-way street. The pavement markings serve a significant purpose on the street. Here are some additional details I’d like you to consider: 1. We have an elderly neighbor who relies on clearly defined parking space boundaries. When cars drift into the space in front of her home, it can block their access or require her to walk farther than she needs to. 2. Several small children live and play on this part of the street. Without visible parking lines, cars often park farther out into the street than before, reducing sightlines and making it harder for drivers to see children entering or exiting vehicles. 3. We have multiple college student renters on the block. Turnover and unfamiliarity with the street lead to inconsistent spacing and irregular parking patterns. This sometimes reduces the usable width of the street and narrows driving lanes. Given these access and safety considerations, would it be possible for the Traffic Division to assess whether refreshed pavement markings would improve visibility and organization on this block? I appreciate your time and your help in keeping the neighborhood safe.
East Chris lane street is in disrepair . Many potholes and uneven surfaces . They threw some loose asphalt in the big holes at the end of the street but the whole street needs repaving. I see the repair being done on highland and other streets close by and I would say our street is as bad as any of them . Thanks
The street sign for Cherry Street was blown down Wednesday night. Also there should probably be a yield sign instead of stop at that corner. Will appreciate your attention. Thank you.
intersection at Sare and Rhorer. If turning left onto Rhorer it's very difficult if not impossible to see around the car to your right that's turning onto Rhorer. Also, cars coming down the hill on Rhorar, to the left are very fast. Should be 4-way stop or traffic light.
This is a Positive Review My husband and I have been walking Bloomington trails for a decade. This past year we have discovered the last 2 segments out on Dillman Rd. It’s a lovely part of the trail covered by trees for more shade and cooler in the heat of summer. During this time we also noticed the consistent upkeep of this segment. Following the friendly custom of speaking to other walkers, we realized a consensus existed on the excellent work & commitment of Mr. Troy Carter, who cares for that particular section of trail. He is always working, always doing what needs to be done. My husband Howard, often commented that during his decades of working at Crane NSWC, he always looked for people who had this work ethic, always doing their job even when not supervised. He also is always kind and courteous to the trail users, answering questions, giving directions & just being courteous to everyone who walks by. For example if he’s blowing leaves, cutting grass, etc he will pause pulling the trigger in the few moments it takes a walker to pass him by. A small gesture possibly but a boon to those of us that use our walks for conversation or solely for the tranquility of nature and is simply a kind human gesture. We trail walkers appreciate all that he does and simply wanted to say Thank You.
So my name is Jeremiah Jackson. I have been a Monroe county resident almost all my life. I have reported some things to the Bloomington police department and to two news agencies about officer misconduct and abuse of power. I can’t seem to get anything done in this regard. I’m writing to see if I can get a moment of your time? I’d really appreciate it if you or someone in your office would take the time to have a discussion, it involves misuse of power and my request for a restraining order and protective order and the fact these individuals are still stalking me and harassing me. Thank you very much for your time. His name is Jeremy m ayres, possibly Shawn Riggs. And they claim they are an officer named Chris Scott but my attorney has done checked into that. They do not have a warrant or court order. So there harassment is not legal by any means . It isn’t surveillance or an investigation it is blatantly harassment.
I reside at 1909 E. Windsor Dr. Recently many of the streets in our neighborhood were repaved and speed humps were installed. However, our street from the corner of Arden Dr to the three-way stop corner of Wilton Dr were repaved but not speed humps. I am advocating for 1-2 to be installed on Windsor Dr between these two intersections. Very few autos stop at the three-way and I believe the speed hump will slow them down as they come to the Windsor & Wilton intersection and make for a much safer intersection. An older resident in the neighborhood explained how Windsor Dr at one time was a straight east-west street and the Windsor & Wilton intersection was a straight T with only one direction having a stop sign. The city, many years ago, changed this intersection to add a three-way stop and curve Windsor out so to slow down traffic. Maybe it worked, but not so much from our vantage point. I have small grandchildren that are with me a lot and I'd like the area to be safer for pedestrians. Lots of dog walkers and people walking in general and there are NO sidewalks for the most part in our neighborhood. Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
