The bypass has been very congested as of late. It has been taking an extremely long time to drive from 10th & Bypass to highway 37. This has never been an issue before and there can't be that many more people coming to and from Bloomington. It seems maybe the lights are off since law enforcement change the lights for traffic flow after athletic events. Please advise. Thank you!
I have currently lived on Kinser Pike for a little over three years, but in this last year I have witnessed two accidents right in front of my home. Two others were witnessed by my neighbors, for a total of four this year alone (not including the semi that took out the utility pole at the skate park). Just this morning (3/20/2019), a car spun out and almost crashed into the timber once again while I sat in my kitchen. I am extremely concerned about the curve on Kinser Pike right after the skate park. Traffic has become unbearable since we truly only have one way in and out of the neighborhood and to BHSN. I have also witnessed several school buses exceeding the speed limit by what I would guess is at least 10 MPH. I ask the city to please consider looking into this issue as we have children who live on this street as well as pedestrians crossing the street or using the sidewalks. This is still a neighborhood and it needs to be treated like one, not a highway.
Mr. Adams states that crossing east third street is dangerous. He states that there is no crosswalk and he has observed children and seniors having difficulty crossing the road. He wants to know if the City has plans to correct the problem.

CALLER COMPLAINED SHE REPORTED A STREET LIGHT OUT AT OVERHILL AND DEKIST @ 3 WKS AGO. IT IS STILL OUT. I COULD NOT FIND A COMPLAINT IN THE SYSTEM BUT SHE HAS TALKED TO SOMEONE BECAUSE SHE KNEW CINERGY WOULD HANDLE. PLEASE CALL HER AND GIVE HER THE STATUS.
The construction plan and closures are ridiculous. We get no notice of any road closures and we now have one way in and out of our apartment complex, which leads to a congested one lane road. We received no notice of any road closures which included our side of 45/46 and Pete Ellis. How am I supposed to get to work on time when you change the roads and lights during rush hour traffic which causes major traffic jams. The overall thought and planning put into all road construction in Bloomington is abysmal. If giving notice of road closures is too difficult to do then try to focus on completing the construction on one road before starting construction on another.
Suggesting that a speed hump be put on E. Eastgate Lane, in between N. Hillsdale Dr. and the bypass. Cars fly through our street to and from the bypass, and there is a blind corner at Hillsdale and Eastgate.
Mr. McClelland reported that a city buss pulled out of Tulip Tree Apartments without stopping for the stop sign causing him to have to brake suddenly. The incident happen around 3:00pm today and he was able to get the plate number of the bus(#65289) This was a dangerous situation. Mr. McClelland would like a call back from a supervisor so he can discuss this matter further.
Laura Lee form the Parking Dept., came in to let us know that the Post Office contacted her in regardes to citizens putting down gravel to make a parking pull of at 2408 E. 4th St. The Post Office is having trouble delivering the mail to this area due to the parking. They want the pull off measured and then the residents notified that they can no longer park there.
