I was in downtown Bloomington this weekend. There is no parking lines to know which meter I needed to pay. It was quite confusing. If I knew I could included a photo I would have. Please mark the parking spots so they align with parking meters.
Once again, the section of West 11th st between Adams St and Fountain Dr has become a speedway. Drivers CD are absolutely flying down the road. Captain Pedigo, I know you are stretched thin when it comes to number of officers, but could you do your best to set up radar sometime on this section of road? Our neighborhood would truly appreciate it.
Excessive speeding (meaning more than 5 mph over the posted speed limits) continues on 17th St. This includes very large trucks (semis, construction trucks, etc.) and even some MCCS busses. Some vehicles go way over the speed limit. Suggestions for improving this situation? Even adding just one more mph sign each on both sides of the road might help (at least help those drivers who tend to drive more or less at posted limits).
Traffic backs up all the way to fourth street and beyond as many people try to turn left onto East Third Street. Sometimes you can sit there for 10+ minutes if someone is attempting to turn left. Please consider making that stop sign a “No Left Turn” sign as well. There is a stop light just a block east that people can use to make the left turn onto East 3rd.
We live on Southern Oaks Drive (between Sare Road and Oakmount Drive). Drivers frequently use our street as a "cut through." We have many children in our neighborhood and, this afternoon, a five year old boy riding his bicycle was almost hit by a driver speeding through this area. The driver did not even slow down, rather, they swerved to go around him. He swerved the same direction and they almost hit him. Our request is for speed bumps or some sort of traffic calming device to be place on South Southern Oaks Drive before a child is seriously hurt or even killed. This situation will only worsen as more apartments, and businesses are built on Sare Road.
Thanks but I see done going outside of the parking place markings into a lane of traffic.

With that in mind, the water-filled barricades are not being used as traffic control devices, but rather as a physical delineation between the seating and the road itself.
The crosswalk between N and S Woodbridge Dr and across 10th is routinely ignored by passing cars. I have almost been hit around 3 times while in the crosswalk by cars that refused to stop for me as I was crossing. Cars otherwise refuse to stop when pedestrians are waiting to cross. This is a safety concern for pedestrians.
Crosswalk paint almost completely gone and very difficult to see in the dark. When taking left off of Atwater to veer back towards 3rd street; the triangle intersection where you can choose to go right or left onto third.
We request a traffic counter to show the amount of vehicles that do not stop at this intersection. Children are out more due to closure and too many times vehicles have made it dangerous for bike riding and pedestrians. Please please please take us seriously. Vehicles are going at exceeding speeds and ignoring traffic signs. Side walks do not have on ramps and children are riding bikes in the street and vehicles are risking lives of children.
Add a stop sign to reduce speed on Allendale Drive. Speeds are exceeding, cars do not slow down at this intersection to turn, this is a multimodal route and children and bikes are here often.
