Street & Traffic Signs:

Other: I'm curious what the possibility of reducing the speed limit on Bloomfield is? From my observation biking and driving that road daily (I live off Basswood), 40 mph starting just west of Adams seems too fast for such a narrow lane with a lot of drives and high deer crossing further west approaching the highway. I've often seen people fly up the hill between Landmark and Cory and slam on their breaks because they couldn't see the traffic stopped ahead. Not sure how you determine speed limits. I'm also curious of a deer crossing sign could be placed along Bloomfield (between Twin Lakes Recreation Center and I-69) - I bike that road everyday and there's a new dead deer every week or so. I know people stop looking at/get desensitized to signs, but it just seems to appropriate to put a deer sign there. Thanks for all you do!

Thank you for submitting this uReport. Staff reviewed traffic speeds and roadway function along this segment of Bloomfield Rd. Recent speed data indicate vehicle speeds are generally consistent with the posted 40 mph limit, and engineering criteria do not support a speed reduction at this time. Staff also noted a history of deer related crashes in this corridor and will coordinate internally to evaluate whether a deer crossing warning sign is appropriate. Thank you for bringing this concern to our attention.
