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.

N Walnut St & W 8th St, Bloomington, IN 47408, USA

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?

S Sowder Square

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.

Smith Rd, Between E Third and Moore's Pike
- Case Date:
- 7/28/2021
Smith Rd often has folks speeding between E Third and Moore's Pike. There are no stop signs and no traffic monitoring... and too many folks just whiz along.
It can be dangerous checking the mailbox or crossing the road and animals crossing the road are in peril.
Need traffic monitoring and better placement of speed limit signage (the sign near the Lutheran Church is not nicely visible/not effectively placed....and it is the only one). The intersection at Smith and 3rd is horrendous. It is very difficult making a left from Smith to E 3rd and cars behind grow impatient. Thank you.

Picture Vs. Map = unrelated.
The picture has relevance as that is what traffic is like on Tapp/Country Club at 3:40 - 5:45 on a Friday near to Rockport intersection.
And NO, this keyboard has not disappeared, it is holding its own; = yeah.
