This is following up on a previous complaint. I am using a separate filing because I could not figure out how to reply to the last one. The traffic patterns at the intersection of 10th and Range Rd facilitate dangerous maneuvers by motorists, which put at risk other motorists and pedestrians. There are two lane options on 10th going east and west: right turn only or straight/left turn only. The light is only indicates 'Go' and there are no arrow lights. When a motorist wants to turn left coming from either direction on 10th, it blocks all straight bound traffic. Right turns are much rarer at this intersection, so the right turn only lane is completely open. Some motorists choose to use this lane to go straight through the intersection and blow through nearly hitting turning vehicles that are patiently waiting their turn to go. Backed up traffic creates a blind spot for the left turning vehicle and they often do not see the oncoming vehicle attempting to go straight in the right only lane. Every day there are close encounters. To make matters more difficult, the bus stop is immediately adjacent to this intersection on both sides of 10th, causing even more close encounters. This is a high traffic intersection at all times of the day, but particularly in the morning and evening during rush hours.

People daily continue to zip through stop signs going north and south at Smith and Morningside. It is dangerous. PLEASE can the City add flashing lights to the stop signs at least the Smith ones, paint the crosswalks back and/or something to help enforce people properly stopping there . Thank you!!

What is the plan to address the literal impassability of 10th street across campus during the day? It is insane the City allows that road block to continue. Any what is the plan to overall approve east west vehicle traffic across town? Ideally multilane options. Again, insane. Would actively recommend not moving to or working in Bloomington due to traffic problems here. I love Bloomington promotes walking, biking, scooters, etc. But the solution is not making life hell for drivers often limited in options. Someone needs to get their act together. This is not ok.

Stop light at North Walnut and Old State Road 37. I waited over 7min for green light to turn from old 37 to Walnut. This is not the first time. Please fix the issue.

Someone has parked a construction dumpster in the alley between Wylie and Dodds, just off of S Rogers.

TOTALLY fucked that people are allowed to block an alley with a construction dumpster when they have a driveway that is large enough to contain the dumpster. THANKS so much for looking out for the public...oh yeah, I forgot, private individual needs always trump the public...this city sucks

A street sign was recently installed at E Thornton Dr & S Henderson St (on the southside of town), and it is missing again. I'm not sure if the recent high winds may have blown the sign off, or what happened. Also, the street sign at E North Dr & S Henderson St (by South High School) is reversed. Thank you for taking the time to address this matter.

So many cars are speeding through the Waterman neighborhood, between 7th and 8th St from Vernal Pk to Spring St. The speeders run up and down 7th and 8th St. Here are some ideas the City could help us out with, 1. a Temporary Speed Display Board on 8th St, 2. Additional speed limit signs, 3. Speed bumps. I would certainly welcome any suggestions you might have.

Indiana RR bridge on Adams St. has many severe impacts scars. The Waterman Neighborhood Association is considering a painting project, but would like inspection and repairs first. Suggestion: paint it yellow, so speeders would see it, and the City have paint on hand to cover up speeder mistakes.

Does anyone even monitor the lights to enter a freeway. Car pool lane is only for two or more in the vehicle. The ramp from Bush Lake Road to enter 494E is constantly being abused. Car after car after car is using the car pool lane with only one person in the vehicle. Very frustrating as I'm in the proper lane awaiting my turn and watching all these other cars entering the freeway and not using the proper lane. Why have this feature if it isn't monitored?
