When heading N on Highland and turning L onto 3rd Street, it is extremely difficult to see around the TIS Bookstore. Cars with long noses practically have to inch out into traffic to see whether any vehicles are coming. (I suspect this may be partly responsible for the collision at the intersection I saw a few days ago.) My suggestion for a solution is to install convex traffic mirrors to increase visibility around the corner. These are used to excellent effect in the many tight corners in Europe, where streets and buildings often existed long before modern traffic conditions.
do not enter sign needs to be larger ? drivers u turn to go westbound on 3rd st. I have had 2 close head on hits while entering the turn lane to cross 3rd to muller pkwy. i have had one instance where the car behind me (while I was at the stop sign on muller waiting to turn right on 3rd) where the car behind me went around me on the left and made the u turn to go west on 3rd. I have seen several drivers cut thru there to get into the Swifty.
To Whom it May Concern, I am an IU Student living in Jackson Heights. I choose to take the bus 2-3 times a day to get to my classes, in an effort to be environmentally conscious. The nearest bus stop is on 17th street past the gas station. There isn't any crosswalk/crosswalk lights on any side of the corner I have indicated. This puts myself, as well as any other pedestrian, at risk of being seriously injured. I've been in Bloomington since August and have, thankfully, avoided getting into any incident. However, I have just heard from my roommate, that she almost got hit by a car, as the driver wasn't paying attention and it's tricky for a pedestrian to decide when to cross when there aren't any indications to do so. I am really hoping a solution can be reached. I'd also appreciate any feedback on any way I can assist to help avoid a tragic situation. Thank you for your time, Yasmine El-Gohary
wondering if you might consider bike lanes or a widened shoulder next time north Kinser Pike is repaved. It's a popular route to reach the Bottoms and as a driver and biker, I'd appreciate the added safety.
"Head start" for pedestrians. Use the NYC trick, give walkers a 7 second head start before turning the light green. This intersection, the one on the bypass and 10th, and the Kirkwood Walnut crosswalk are just 3 places drivers ignore pedestrians as they only look at cars so they can make right turns. Please. They're going to run us over. Look at Saturdays NYtimes.
Street signs down at Wintersweet and Rosewood for close to a month. Signs fell down in high wind and then were taken within a day. Never replaced.
Hello. I am the property manager for Tamarron HOA. There is a cross walk to Univeristy Elementary School from Tamarron. We are having issues with speeding vehicles and children crossing the street. At the HOA board meeting tonight it was suggested putting a three way stop sign at the intersection of Callery Drive and Tamarron Drive to at least slow the traffic down. Who do we contact about this? One Board member brought up if there is a stop sign on the north end of Callery Drive and Tamarron Drive, it will re-route cars down the south side of Tamarron so maybe installing two stop signs at each end of Callery Drive and Tamarron Drive. Thank you for considering this.
Hello, I have lived at 410 West Dodds Street, between Rogers and Madison since 2001. I'm very happy here and would like to stay in this neighborhood. My mom lives at 302 West Dodds. One thing that has always been a concern to me and my family on this street how fast people drive on it. For some reason they they use the area between the B-line crossing and Rogers to step hard on the gas. I've emailed with the Mayor a few times over the years about this and have called the police a few times. Police driving by more often a few times does not help. With the new businesses on this street and the increased foot traffic (that I'm happy about) safety is becoming even more of a concern. Finally, my suggestion: Will you please direct me to the process of applying for speed bumps on this street? It would be much safer. I guarantee that most people in my neighborhood would vote for it. Thanks for your time
There is no street sign at this location and wondering if this can be remediated. Thanks, Marle
