Traffic Suggestions:

Other: Hello, I live on the south side of Bloomington on Coolidge Drive. Down the road from broad view learning center. I had noticed last year that road maintenance had placed speed bumps on all the Broadview neighborhood streets but Coolidge road. They are also now adding permanent speed bumps throughout the neighborhood but haven’t seen any signs that they will out any on Coolidge. Coolidge has a hill coming down from the school leading to Rogers. People fly down this road at 40+ MPH just to slam on their brakes before getting to the stop sign. It is a major concern of mine since people walk the side walks regularly. I’ve had my mailbox hit several times because the road is also smaller than normal and with flying cars then people over correct and cause damage to peoples property and their own cars. I would like to propose also adding a speed bump on Coolidge to help with the very fast and dangerous driving. Thank you, Kegan Smith
