Excessive lawn growth over entire Bloomington Hospital Legacy Site.
Tall grass and weeds at the old IU Health Bloomington Hospital property. Needs mowed immediately!
This pedestrian intersection of the B-line and rogers NEEDS A STOP SIGN FOR TRAFFIC! I have been hit by a car here once already, and have been nearly hit several times after that, despite wearing high-vis safety gear and having 6 total lights(including in-rim wheel lights for side visablitiy). I see cars fly through this cross walk at full speed, everyday. I cycle to work every day as well, and often cross here. The angle at which the intersection happens makes it hard for cars to see if bikes or pedestrians are coming from certain directions. There are currently only 2 stop signs on the entire B-line trail where cars MUST stop for pedestrians(which is a clear safety oversight for a town claiming to be bike friendly), and this spot absolutely needs one as well. ALSO, speaking of stop signs on the B-line, you should place an undercover traffic cop at the intersection of the B-line and 7th where there is an actual stop sign, and you'll be ticketing every other person since they nearly all do rolling "stops" at this cross walk. I nearly got hit by a huge black SUV last week and had to yell at the dumb cunt driving who didn't stop at all and just drove right through the crosswalk with me rapidly approaching, all my lights on, high-vis motorcycle helmet and everything, she sees me and just keeps going... seriously, I have no doubt in my mind that if you had an officer watching that intersection they'd get their ticket quota in a day, easy. It's time Bloomington puts its money where its mouth is and does something about the safety of the B-line crosswalks.
Light Pole #140 on B-Line Trail is strobing.
BIM tracking into road constantly. Big trucks, gravel, and debris ruining newer paved road.
Large/dangerous pothole in east bound lane of Rogers Rd, coming down hill towards round about at High St
Hello, I am wondering if there is anything the city can do to slow traffic heading west on Rogers toward High Street. There are pedestrian crossing signs and a flashing yellow light near the traffic circle at High Street, but this doesn't stop drivers from flying down the hill at dangerous speeds, and it's difficult for them to see people waiting to cross near the traffic circle. At least there is a crossing guard here in the morning and the afternoon during the school months. My major concern is that many drivers don't stop or even slow down for the pedestrian crossing at Rogers/The Stands Dr., and many people travel at 40+ mph here. My kids (and many others) walk and bike here all the time and I constantly worry about them because of the speeds at which people drive. Speed humps or rumble strips might help here. I would really appreciate it if the city would investigate and come up with a solution (and I'm sure many others would as well). Thank you.
There is a dead deer in the grass that has been there since the storm hit.
There is a substantial amount of horseweed growing in the newest part of the prairie, south of the barn.
