Which office handles habitual speeding areas? For the five blocks of 12th Street stretching from Walnut to Indiana Avenues there are no traffic signs (speed limit, Stop, etc.) at all, so some people use it as a raceway - mostly in the evenings and much of the night. Formally it is a 25mph zone, but that is not indicated anywhere along the street. In the last year the main problems have been with Domino's Pizza delivery vehicles that fly perhaps 50 mph down the street. We have spoken directly to some drivers and with Domino's managers, but that has done nothing. What can be done to stop them from making our neighborhood a dangerous and unpleasant place to live? If a Stop sign were put in place at Lincoln and/or Grant, that would likely help.

Please remove the temporary lane markings on 3rd St between approximately Woodlawn and Swain Hall region. It's unclear for car drivers where the lane exists, and creates a hazard for bus operators. Reported on behalf of IU Campus Bus Service. 812-855-8384

Morton & 7th, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA
- Case Date:
- 11/29/2021
Can the City explain how a driver of a vehicle is supposed to see cross-traffic on 7th Street from Morton without being in the crosswalk and almost in the intersection? I was headed north on Morton and came to the intersection at 7th where cross traffic now does not stop on 7th. The buildings, trees, and other clutter to either side of the intersection make it very dangerous to see bicycles and traffic coming on 7th Street. I had to completely block the pedestrian crosswalk and approach the intersection to feel safe about my assessment of cross traffic.
This is a very bad design. The entire 7th Street project seems poorly conceived and designed. I have witnessed multiple people driving in the bike lanes. Was the budget so low that stop signs and "traffic keep left" signs were not affordable and we ended up with this mess to just make something work? There are a ton of safety issues I have witnessed. Someone is going to get hurt soon it seems, or taken out by a bus mirror.

I've seen dozens of drivers speed through this Walnut corridor, from 8th St to 12th St, in excess of 40mph. There are pedestrian crossings at 8th and 9th that are completely unusable. Motorists like to speed through the straightaway since there are three lanes. This area needs traffic calming measures to protect pedestrians.

Catalent changed which of their entrances their employees are allowed to use. Because of this the left turn lane of patterson (headed west) is used much more and backs up, blocking the straight/right lane too.

S Mitchell St & E 3rd St, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA
- Case Date:
- 1/10/2022
Was there a rationale for the recent (this summer) changes to this intersection? With the closure of the 2nd lane of 3rd street it's dangerous to enter from Mitchell now.
You're angled terribly to look for oncoming traffic unless you can crane your neck 120 degrees back and to the right. Also, as traffic heads east on 3rd street (from Mitchell) they block any visibility you might have.
Are there plans to sort this out with a light, stop sign, or anything?

Where Sowder Square meets Allendale Drive in Sherwood Oaks you cannot see traffic coming from the right. Almost everyone on Sowder Square has accidentally pulled out in front of traffic because they can't see traffic coming. The large bush needs to be removed before there is an accident and somebody gets hurt. Can you please take a look at this issue for the residents on Sowder Square. Thank you!

Smith Rd and 3rd St, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA
- Case Date:
- 7/28/2021
I live off of Smith Rd and travel the road multiple times a day. I am almost in an accident every time I’m at this intersection. Vehicles that are crossing Smith Rd are constantly going around vehicles trying to turn from Smith Rd onto 3rd St, as if there is a turn lane. I have spent an entire green light attempting to turn onto 3rd St, unable to do so because of this issue. Traffic is frequently backed up. If you do not pull into the intersection while trying to turn onto 3rd St, vehicles crossing Smith Rd display angry gestures and honking because they cannot cross while you are unable to turn. Turn lanes and turn arrows need to be implemented here.
