1284 S Liberty DR

Case Date:
8/24/2015

There is a line of sight issue turning right out the Goodwill Store parking lot. The trees and vegetation makes it very difficult to see oncoming traffic, since Liberty Drive makes a bend right at our access drive. An article was ran in the Bloomington Herald Times by Marci Creps describing how hazardous this intersection is. We would like to have this resolved as quickly as possible, given the bad publicity we have already received from this issue.

On the southeast corner of Wilson St. & Lincoln St., the curb is partially painted yellow, but the paint does not extend all the way to the corner. Because of this, there is a vehicle that regularly parks right on the corner. This makes it nearly impossible to check for oncoming northbound traffic on Lincoln St. when you are traveling westbound on Wilson St. I would like to request that the city paint the curb yellow all the way to the corner and possibly add appropriate signage. Thank you.

1424 S Washington ST

Case Date:

Attempting to turn left onto Hillside onto Washington is extremely difficult during high traffic times. Contributing to this is the very poor sight line when attempting to see oncoming traffic - the hill up from walnut blocks westbound traffic to a degree, and the porch structure built to the property line at 202 E Hillside makes it very hard to see eastbound traffic. What could be done to make this intersection feel less perilous?

201 East 10th Street

Case Date:
4/8/2016

During heavy traffic, visibility can be very poor for vehicles traveling southbound on Washington Street and attempting to cross or merge onto 10th street. Tonight I witnessed an accident caused by a white suv attempting to turn eastbound onto 10th from washington. The vehicle was promptly hit after turning onto 10th by a car that was most likely traveling far too fast. A stop sign at the intersection would make things a lot safer! I'm really concerned a pedestrian is going to injured at some point at this crossing.

The trees and brush along the east side of Walnut reduce visibility for drivers turning from Blue Ridge Drive onto Walnut. These were trimmed recently, but have become a problem again after all the rain.

299 South Overhill Drive

Case Date:
8/25/2016

Turns onto 3rd street from Overhill Drive are very, very dangerous! It is basically a turn into a 5 lane road. I was going southbound on Overhill Drive making a left turn onto 3rd, but I was unable to see incoming traffic from eastbound 3rd street which was being blocked by cars stopped at the stoplight on westbound 3rd st. They frequently have to slow down to let me in and sometimes I have to swerve my car into the center lane to avoid an accident. The problem with that though is that sometimes westbound people on 3rd street wanting to turn left on Woodcrest Drive speed through the middle lane and almost crash into me while I am turning left onto 3rd street. It seems like the connection between Overhill Drive and 3rd street should be blocked off because there is no traffic light onto the 5 lane road which has high traffic, and due to the stoplight at 3rd/Woodcrest, all the stopped vehicles are blocking the view of oncoming traffic.
