Gravel driveway potholes, causing ankle injuries and car damage.
Large pothole
The stop sign at the intersection of E. Waterloo Court and Picadilly Street is super-faded and barely readable. It needs to be replaced.
At the intersection of W Bloomfield Rd and Landmark Ave the walk lights never turn to “walk”.
I was attempting to cross South Landmark Avenue at the crosswalk, to run an errand at Williams Brothers Pharmacy. I pressed the button on the crosswalk to signal my need to cross. The button responded with the usual voice saying "Wait." However, the crosswalk light never came on, so I could not cross. I use a power chair that is not fast enough to cross between traffic, and that is shorter than most cars (so I cannot easily be seen by drivers when crossing). What is normally a 20 minute errand took me 3 hours as I had to search for a place I could cross.
The curb at the corner of Landmark and Arch Haven is very steep, about 3 inches of rise at an angle probably close to 70°. Landmark Ave has many medical facilities and this path is the one people would travel on between Adams and 3rd St where transit vehicles provide access. It should be smoothed out to provide a safer ramp for people with mobility devices and unsure footing.

North-facing Speed limit sign reads "30" at this location; however, on Woodlawn at 7th, a south-facing speed limit sign reads "25." Checking Bloomington Code, this stretch of Woodlawn Ave does not appear in Schedules I or J—thus making the speed limit 25 mph by 15.24.010 and IC 9-21-5-6. "Speed limit 30" sign on Woodlawn just south of 10th should be corrected to read "Speed limit 25."
Potholes between 534 and 540 S Lincoln. Previously reported on Aug 13, 2013. Public alley. Please call or email the status of this request. People are complaining their cars are bottoming out in potholes.
I live in Canterbury house apartments and use the Bloomington Transit to get around. My daughter (26) and myself are both disabled and have mobility limitations. I would assume that it was from last Wednesday's storms, but there is a large tree branch blocking the sidewalk along basswood between the entrance to Canterbury House Apartments and the bus stop at Forest Ridge Apartments. We had a doctor's appointment this morning and had to be at the bus stop by 7:20AM and was surprised to see such a mess blocking the sidewalk. Since my daughter would be unable step off the sidewalk with her rollater walker to avoid the section that the tree branch covers it meant we had to walk from Canterbury House Apartments entrance to the entrance to Forest Ridge on the road. This was very unsettling for both her and I because we both know how bad cars fly around the corner and how fast they speed through this section. We came in from the bus at 2:25pm today and the tree branch was still there so we took a photo to show.
