1133-1149 Knightridge Road

Case Date:

Hello, The portion of the 446 between the Gentry East entrance and the newly constructed Gentry Park Senior Living is currently marking the median as dotted line, meaning passing is allowed. This does not seem to be a good idea considering that there are quite some traffic going in and out both from Compton blvd (Gentry East property) and from Gentry drive (Gentry Estates property) to 446. I had a near-collision incident yesterday. I was going to make a left-turn toward the Compton blvd from southbound 446. At the very moment of turning left, I happened to see my side-mirror to find a car was speeding up toward the opposite lane to pass the three cars all at once. I was fortunate to be able to make a stop to avoid the collision. Yes, that driver must be an idiot but I would like to ask the City (or State) to do something for this. As long as this portion of the road allows passing, there are potential dangers for the cars traveling this portion of the road. As the Gentry Park Senior Living is becoming open, the situation could be getting worse. Please make this portion of the road passing not allowed both ways. Thanks.

101 N Bryan AVE

Case Date:
1/29/2017

Hello! I live just off of the intersection of 5th Street and Bryan Avenue, right next to the IU Raintree House. I've noticed that one of the stop signs at the four way stop is missing, the post and all. I've seen people driving right through without stopping, and then realized that the sign was completely gone. It is the stop sign on the north east side of the intersection. Just wanted to let somebody know. Thank you for your help!

100 North Jordan Avenue

Case Date:
2/28/2016

The lane markings at the entrance to the Jordan Avenue Parking Garage are incomplete. There are white lane markings for the exiting traffic, but there is no line of any kind marking the separation between ingoing and outgoing traffic. Shouldn't there be a yellow line there? I have witnessed several close calls at this location, when a vehicle entering the garage crosses a couple of feet over where the yellow line SHOULD be, into the left-turn lane for the exiting traffic.

1-21 East Dillman Road

Case Date:
10/13/2017

For over 17 years we have lived close to the corner of Dillman and S. Old 37. As I type yet another traffic accident is being cleaned up at this intersection. It is time to have a 4 way stop put in. No more rumble strips, or intersection signs or yellow blinking lights, or cutting back the tree/brush line. (well, that does need to happen:-) This has got to be one of the most dangerous intersections in town. People coming off of 37 drive down old 37 like they are still on the highway. With the amount of houses, buses and children that are living in the area I would have thought that something would have been done by now to fix this problem, which is a serious safety issue to anyone trying to cross the road. The solution of a four way makes since and would not hurt the pocket book of Bloomington. If it is an inconvenience for people to stop then so be it. This has gone on for far too long and all attempts to do something, in the form of rumble strips,intersection signs,yellow blinking lights etc., by the city/county have just been band aids not real solutions. Please take my request seriously. Many of us living on the south side have children who are reaching the age where they will be on the roads as young drivers. As an adult with over 20 years of driving experience, I dread approaching this intersection or even pulling out of my own driveway near this intersection. Its a death trap and a game of chance. Thanks so much for your time. Regards, Nelson Cano

hello. through the years we have had a few complaints and it has become more frequent as of the last couple about no street sign. The street is Varsity Lane and there has never been a street sign and it is the only street in the area off of Dunn st. that has never had one. We would like to request a street sign for Varsity Lane on corner of varsity lane and N. Dunn street. Thanks.....

7th & Grant is a 4-way stop. None of the Stop signs has the little "4 WAY" sign under the "STOP" sign.

As a resident on the east side of Bloomington, I often find myself on 10th street because it is a main artery through town. I've always wondered why there isn't a designated left turn lane with a left arrow traffic light to help the traffic flow at the intersection at 10th and Pete Ellis. The designated lanes are as follows. Left turn/Straight and a right turn lane. People who turn left aren't able to do so easily because it's a busy street and people who wait behind them are forced to try to re-enter the traffic flow because other cars decide to use the right turn lane to go straight. Unless I'm mistaken, creating your own lane of traffic is frowned upon, so I'm constantly frustrated by the fact that I sit patiently in the left/straight lane behind a car waiting to turn, and then as I'm entering the intersection, have to watch out (yielding to cars that have decided to go around the situation) to avoid getting sideswiped. Perhaps the city developers could look at this particular problem and re-designate the lanes or use resources to get a new light with a left turn arrow. I can't be the first person to have complained about the safety of this intersection.

The sign on College Mall Rd right before Hillside that says "Right lane must turn right" is totally obscured by foliage. Thanks for your attention to this.
