Dear City of Bloomington, I want to begin by acknowledging the hard work and efforts of city employees during recent winter weather events. That work does not go unnoticed. However, the unfinished road conditions across the city are concerning. We are now over a week past the most recent snowfall, and many major roads within city limits remain uncleared or only partially cleared. Several roads still have lane blockages, inconsistent clearing, and obstructions that pose potential safety risks and increase the likelihood of accidents. When traveling in from surrounding rural areas, I expected conditions to be worse; however, county and state-maintained roads have been consistently attended to. Crews have been out daily addressing problem areas and ensuring all lanes—including shoulders—are cleared and returned to normal operating conditions. I respectfully ask that the City review the current road conditions within Bloomington and take the necessary steps to bring major roadways back to a safe and fully functional standard for residents and commuters. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
Property management has no cleared snow front commons area. They are Granet Student Living. Thank you
The bridge on W Allen (between Morton and Walnut) gets blocked every time it snows. I'm sure it's challenging to do otherwise, but every snow the trucks just push a mountain up against either end of the bridge. There's no reasonable alternatie paths. Please clear.
Please clear the snow from the trail between the dead end of Hawthorne and Weatherstone.
Owner has shoveled the front but has neglected the W. Third sidewalk of this corner property on the SW corner of Buckner & W. 3rd, necessitating pedestrians to walk in the street.
the whole stretch of sidewalk going north to W 3rd St has not been shoveled along the east side of the street. A lot of snow has been plowed onto it from businesses and housing on the west side of the street. Nonetheless, it appears that the homeowners on S. Davidsson whose properties extend to S. Walker do not realize that this sidewalk is also their responsibility.
Several sidewalks are blocked and are mountains of snow you got to climb.
This owner has NEVER, EVER shoveled his walk 15-20 years he has lived here. I walked up the alleyway between 808 and 812 and this homeowner's vehicle was absent. He had clearly shoveled that area, but not where pedestrians walk. Obviously, it is unsafe to walk in the street on W. 2nd, especially now that the roads are cleared of snow!!
New owner may not be aware of the obligation.
