There are a series of deep potholes between Adams St and North Waldron that are both difficult to see at night and difficult to avoid during the day with cars parked alnog the street. It needs repaving. I have recently popped two of my bike tires on this road that I commute on multiple times daily.
This location needs a bike rack that allows for a U-lock.
There are several patches of many deep potholes on W 6th St between Adams and Waldron. I have popped two bicycle tires in the last two months because of the state of the road. This is my only means of transportation for getting to campus and causes regular problems for me and my roommate.
Yard has not been mowed since May of 2024. It’s an absolute eyesore.
20x20 site of digging, with tarps in place and visible cones. Neighbors say some crew started this last week, then abandoned it. I certainly did not give anyone permission to enter my property, and if this is a right of way, it does not show on the plat. I want it remediated, repaired, and reimbursement for the costs of this destruction of private property. I'll contact the city attorney tomorrow.
need a traffic sign at intersection
Hello! Has Bloomington parks and rec ever looked into building a pump track in one of the parks? Kokomo has one: https://www.cityofkokomo.org/departments/northside_pump_track.php and Indy has one although it's not well advertised and very very small: https://parks.indy.gov/parks/sandorf-park/ I've never been involved in any of the city parks efforts before and have no idea what it takes to build for example the existing two skate parks at cascades and switchyard that cater more to street and vert/bowl skateboarding and other sports. I was very surprised to see that Kokomo has a pump track and we didn't. Thanks for any information you can provide !
Workers grinding the sidewalk are generating significant clouds of silica dust. Silica-generating grinding operations are supposed to be controlled by water or vacuum. The vacuum systems they are using are clearly ineffective. This is clear if you watch them work, it's also clear if you examine a recently ground section of sidewalk. Significant concrete dust remains on the sidewalk surface because the vacuum isn't picking it up. The city is substituting a respiratory hazard for a trip hazard. I don't want to get these guys in trouble, but would appreciate if the city would ensure they're using water or effective vacuum controls.
Please keep introducing new no mow zones in public parks to increase the growth of native plant species and increase biodiversity in our town. Increasing these spaces can greatly improve the quality of life in the surrounding area, not just for humans but also for many crucial insects and animals in our city.
