Traffic Suggestions:

Other: I was traveling east on 10th St. and got into the right-hand turn lane (with turn signal on) to turn right/south on Smith Road. As I turned right, a car facing north on Smith Road turned left to head west on 10th St. and did not see an oncoming car and the eastbound car on 10th street had to brake quickly to avoid an accident...stopping within a few feet of the turning car. With the new traffic light at the Post Office intersection on 10th st, GPS is routing more people east/west on 10th street to/from Smith Rd and more locals are also using this route. This is turning an already dangerous intersection more dangerous. Turning left off smith onto 10th street requires timing to avoid a car coming east around the curve on east 10th street...and the same for turning left onto Smith off 10th street. Please consider a stop light at this intersection. Thank You.

Not City jurisdiction. Comments forwarded to INDOT. Constituent emailed the following message: Thank you for submitting this uReport regarding the 10th-Smith intersection and I'm sorry for the delay in my response. This intersection is actually owned and operated by the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) and not the City. I know that they have received other similar requests for improvements at that location and I know they have investigated possible improvements. The City has also provided a support letter for a funding application that INDOT staff submitted to modify the intersection. I will pass along your comments to INDOT and if you would like to contact them directly then you can email secommunications@indot.IN.gov
