East State Road 46 Bypass

Case Date:
1/22/2013

As 10th street crosses SR46 to the east, it goes from 2 lanes to 1. There is one sign indicating that the right lane ends. However the left lane curves as though it ends. Since I was nearly in an accident the other day because of this confusion, I would like to know which lane ends. I would also like additional signage added to reduce that danger. If it is the right lane that ends, perhaps that could be marked as a right-turn only lane.

This needs to be repainted so that there is a right turn lane so that northbound on Smith turning right onto 10th does not get stuck behind vehicles trying to turn left onto 10th.

900-902 South Rogers Street

Case Date:

For years I have seen many drivers on Rogers (both directions) blow through the stop sign at Dodds. I’ve had three near-misses that I can recall and have seen others have near misses. I saw 2 just today. I’ve come to the point where I think there is something wrong that so many run this stop sign. I don’t know if more prominent striping on the street or larger signs will help or not, but I feel it needs investigation.

See attached photo from Google StreetView. The "curve ahead" sign in front of the fire station at Woodlawn and 12th is no longer appropriate now that Woodlawn Avenue goes across the RR tracks.

815-899 South Rogers Street

Case Date:

The white strips on Rogers Street and Dodds Street indicating where cars are supposed to stop are worn out. Drivers have a habit of driving through the intersection without stopping and drawing more attention to the stops would be beneficial. The stop signs could also have a reflective strip on them to draw more attention to them. 1st Street and Rogers could also benefit from the same improvements.

Case Date:

Over a month ago I reported the street signs missing at the SE corner of Stull Ave and First St. They are still missing and now the signs (and the sign post) at the NE corner of Stull Ave and Maxwell Lane are missing as well. Could you please look into this matter?

800-1720 North Range Road

Case Date:

I suggest posting "no turn on red" for west bound traffic turning onto Range Road. Because of the cement barrier and narrowness of the road I have twice had cars interfere with and almost run into me as I try to make a left turn onto 10th St. on the green light.

800-1720 North Range Road

Case Date:

Some signage or road surface markings would be useful at the intersection of 10th St and Pete Ellis/N. Range Road. The specific problem is when you're heading north. Pete Ellis has basically two lanes at the light. I'm not sure if there are any lane markings, but that's how everyone treats it. However there is confusion on what the lanes are there for. Most people treat the left lane as forward/turn-left, but some think the right lane is forward/turn-right. This becomes a problem when drivers in both lanes decide to go forward onto North Range Road, which has just two lanes. Because Range Road now has an outlet, it has seen more use in recent years, which is sure to increase even more when the hospital goes in. As such, I've either had or witnessed numerous close calls as people nearly sideswipe each other trying to go straight. It would be nice if there was signage indicating specifically what the lanes are there for. My suggestion is the left lane should be forward-left turn and the right be right turn only. Either that or some lane markings and arrows on the pavement itself.

600-736 North Fee Lane

Case Date:

I hope I can coherently explain this. If I don't effectively convey my complaint, please call me. I work for IU Campus Bus Service. I've noticed that the pedestrian crossing signal for peds crossing Fee Ln on the north side of 10th will stay on the "Walk" signal during the transition from 10th St having a green light to an all red (to allow peds to cross in all directions). The problem with this configuration is that a vehicle can effectively get stuck in the middle of the intersection if it was waiting to turn left/north onto Fee from Tenth, while partially in the intersection. In this situation, vehicles can either block the intersection or attempt to squeeze through pedestrians crossing on the north side of the intersection. As you can imagine with a bus, this is a dangerous dilemma.
