closed: Resolved #205392

Request a new Street Light:

Other: Hi I hope you are doing well! I commute home via scooter and I get home well after dusk. When there is no more natural light in Bloomington, this area gets pitch black. This is dangerous because even with a bike light, you are still riding into a yield sign and a dead end. Some unlucky person will miss it and hurt themselves. Also, another reason for a street light is because it is the only section of 7th street that does not have one… or one that works. ESPECIALLY with the speed bumps and the curb coming out to meet the speed bump, it is impossible to see. Thank you for your consideration and I hope we both can contribute to a safer Bloomington!

Mr. Ramaly, Thank you for taking the time to communicate with the Department of Public Works regarding the additional lighting request. I have placed your request location on our Lighting Request Worksheet (E 7th St between N Clark St to N Hillsdale DR). The City leases light from Duke Energy and pays for the ongoing monthly costs with Duke providing the maintenance services. If I do not have correct location, please let me know. In regards to a timeline for the installation, I will keep you posted. Please feel free to contact me for any questions, you may have. Christina
