closed: Can't Fix #169930

Traffic Related Complaints:

Web Form: We have seen increased instances of deer being hit by cars behind our home (1519 Bradshire) at Winslow and S. Xavier Ct. in the last year and would like signage posted to alert drivers that there is a wildlife hazard. We commonly observe afternoon eastbound drivers failing to stop at the stop sign at Winslow and Allendale and speeding down the hill toward Xavier Ct. where they regularly encounter wildlife. The greenway just east of Xavier Ct. is a common crossing point for deer, coyotes, foxes and other wildlife. For the protection of the drivers, the many children who live in the area, and the wildlife, we request that signage be posted. We would also be glad to see increased monitoring of the stop sign at Winslow and Allendale. Thank you.

Constituent emailed with the following message: Thank you for taking the time to submit this uReport requesting a Deer Crossing sign and I apologize for this delay in response. Unfortunately, research and experience around the country has shown that installing this type of warning sign does not actually reduce collisions with wildlife. The City of Bloomington has stopped installing and replacing these signs.
