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.

I live on a dead end street (3928 W Geranium Ln) and we have cars come flying down our street thinking they can access the main road. There are children on this street and it is becoming an issue as the neighborhood has increased in size so much the past two years. Please consider installing a "Dead End" sign on this street! Thank you!

The construction on west side of town needs completed! People are moving and shopping elsewhere. I will avoid it, its a joke to spend an hour or more in traffic.

Really need double Yellow line down 10th St between Morton & Rogers. Drivers get confused at the parking lot entrances as to which way 10th St actually goes. With all the new students it is getting worse.

Could the city look into removing the temporary sign at the corner of Pete Ellis Drive and Third Street that direct motorists to the various shops in the Barnes & Noble and Best Buy shopping centers? I believe this sign was placed during contruction on the 3rd Street and 46 Bypass construction to help motorists navigate into these shops. Now that construction is complete, can this unneeded sign please be removed?

We need "No U-Turn" signs on all left turn cut-outs on the Bypass. I have encountered people making a left where the isn't a street to turn into simply to make a U -turn. This holds up traffic in the left lane of the 2 lane Bypass and creates a dangerous driving condition. I think people are making a U-turn on 45-46 going NW to avoid traffic on East 3rd and then tasking a right onto East 3rd to go into campus. It might have to be something physical to prevent such anarchistic driving. thanks

I am concerned about the parking on the west side of N. Maple Street near 11th Street. There seem to be "No Parking" signs all along N. Maple Street from 17th Street until you get close to 11th Street and then they are missing. This is quite dangerous as the school buses and city buses leaving the area traverse Maple Street as do cars. There are a few cars that park almost directly at the stop sign significantly hindering traffic flow and causing danger, in my opinion. I appreciate your looking into the safety of our city streets.
