Resident of neighborhood called about Stop sign and line of sight issue.
There is brush that has overgrown at the southwest corner of Brownridge Road and S. Smith Road. The brush has come out onto the roads. The citizen knew that the City trims back the brush if it is in the city right-of-way.
It is difficult to see if southbound cross traffic is coming when exiting the mall onto Clarise Blvd. Trees and overgrowth on the northwest part of intersection cause the problem.
The line of sight problem is at the intersection of Heather Drive and the east leg of Laurel Court. When you travel south on Laurel Court and approach the intersection with Heather Drive, there is no stop sign on the right side and the stop sign on the left side is obstructed by tree branches. Please see attached letter.
would like trees trimmed away from stop sign. Would also like a stop bar painted on the street.
If you are on fenbrook ln on the east side of smith Rd, turning right onto smith, there's overhanging foliage that blocks the view of oncoming traffic coming down the hill on smith to the south.
Very concerned about a tree on the parkway that is way overgrown and obstructs the view driving as you go around the bend, but also very dangerous for our children who ride bikes and scooter because cars cannot see them as they drive due to this tree. The family has done nothing to their home and will not trim the tree.
Tree and brush growth needs to be cut back to provide better visibility at the intersection of Brighton Crest and Smith Road. When you are exiting from Brighton Crest facing west and looking south, the tree and brush growth limits your line of sight. Traffic travels at high speed (much faster than the posted speed limit) which further compounds this problem. The hilly nature of Smith Road also makes the line of sight less. Increased speed enforcement and tree and brush removal would make this much safer. As a longer term project, Smith Road needs to be redesigned and developed with considerations made for vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles. This is a dense residential area and yet Smith Road remains a hilly and dangerous country road.
Bushes overgrown at the northwest corner of Gorden Pike and S Walnut Street make it hard to see southbound oncoming vehicles.
Hello, I am wondering if City can install "Hidden Drive" sign on E 10th street in front of my house, 3950 E 10th street, Bloomington IN 47408. Especially, westbound on 10th would be ideal with caution sign because drivers are really fast and it is dangerous to pull car in and out from my house. If there is a sign, I hope drivers will be caution. Thank you.
