There are two potholes almost in front of our mailbox. People hit these potholes at high rates of speed on Kinser Pike, and at sometimes it sounds like an explosion has happening out front when people’s tires hit the potholes.
The storm sewer grate at the end of Olive St where it intersects with Hillside Dr is installed so that the holes are parallel to the direction of travel, and thus bicycle wheels can fall into them. Best practices for safe infrastructure should install them facing the other direction.
This truck was parked fully blocking the 7 line on August 20 at approximately 10 AM.
When the curb between the bike lane and car lane was reconstructed gaps were left in the pavement. Generally the pavement repair was not done to the standard usually expected of Bloomington roads.
Fiber optic installation created some cylindrical holes in the concrete and asphalt about 6" in diameter in various locations. At this intersection, there is one that was apparently refilled with gravel, but another was left open and a stepping hazard. It is on the north part of the intersection, just north of where 11th crosses and closer to the east side of the street than the west. We found a concrete core by the side of the road that likely came out of the hole originally so we placed it back in the hole, but it sunk down a ways because it was unsupported beneath and now it needs to be topped off with gravel or the core should be removed and the entire hole filled with gravel.
Over the weekend, tenants had a bonfire on the NW corner of the building directly underneath power/utility lines. Probably illegal, but more important it was dangerous.
There is a low hanging power line over our driveway. The power line is low enough where it blocks people from walking into our backyard. We believe that this is extremely dangerous for people who will walk into our backyard and near our driveway. We are renters and found the power line like this when we moved in a couple weeks ago.
