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.

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?

I'm new to Bloomington, currently residing on S Park Ave, so I'm not sure if the following has already been reported. I often find it frustrating that there is not a 4-way stop on at the "intersection" of 2nd st and S Park Ave. This isn't a typical intersection as 2nd street dead-ends into S Park causing drivers to have to turn right or left to continue on 2nd, depending on their direction. I realize that 2nd street has more traffic than S Park however traffic often gets backed up when drivers don't know who has the right-away. I've witness several close calls. I'm just looking for some feedback to see if this has been investigated and/or if anything can be done to address it. Many thanks for your time and consideration!

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.

The view of oncoming traffic is obscured at this intersect by the residences. I have not been in or witnessed a collision, but I believe that safety is a concern. I believe that any misfortune might be mitigated with the posting of stop signs or the placement of convex traffic mirrors. The surrounding residences are property of Indiana University. I am a lessee of one of these properties- 824 1/2 East Cottage Grove Avenue.

The stoplight at the corner of S. College Mall Rd. and E. Buick Cadillac Blvd is quite dangerous. I live in Hunter Ridge apartments and when I leave the complex at the light in that intersection, I'm regularly almost hit by cars coming from the opposite side of the intersection (near Burger King). When I try to go straight through that intersection, as I have the right-a-way, those cars turning left regularly cut me off. The same often happens when I try to turn right. I would strongly suggest putting in a left turn arrow on that Burger King side of the intersection; someone is going to be severely injured if not. Thank you.

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.

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.

I frequently travel N and S on Hunter, and it is very, very difficult because of street parking to see whether there is oncoming traffic at this Woodlawn intersection. (There are other similar situations in the neighborhood, but this one is particularly bad.) it would be wonderful if there were convex traffic mirrors to be able to see around the corner. These are commonly used in low-visibility corners in Europe, and can be highly effective.

The intersection at north 10th, Smith road, and Russell road is one of the most dangerous in Bloomington. I believe there needs to be a traffic light there to allow people to turn from Smith Road. It's almost impossible for drivers coming off Smith Road to turn either right or left onto 10th or Russell, especially during rush hour traffic. Visibility is poor because 10th street curves in unusual ways at that intersection, and none of the two-way traffic wants to yield. Bus traffic from 10th Street compounds the problem. Thanks for helping!!
