I work at the school of Business and travel south on Fee Lane. I noticed that there are no speed limit signs from 17th to 10th street. When students are present I usually travel about 20 miles an hour. Yesterday a motorist passed me just before you get to the crosswalk in front of Mc Nutt. There were waves of student on both sides of Fee lane. This motorist crossed the double yellow lines traveling at about 35 miles an hour. Can speed limit signs be installed for about 20 miles an hour? This is a dangerous place for pedestrians.

The yield sign on the corner of 5th and Adams is facing the graveyard and needs to be turned to face drivers on the street.

Good afternoon. I live at 415 W. Graham Drive on the south side of Bloomington. I am writing in hopes of having a two- way stop become a four-way stop at the cross roads of Graham and Madison streets (and possible speed bumps put in). I have noticed (a lot) of drivers who turn on to Graham accelerate to a high speed because the west/ east of Graham does not have to stop at the intersection where Madison crosses (north to south). I cannot tell you how many times I have heard breaks squeal because the driver at the stop sign does not realize that cross traffic does not stop. Graham has a very high volume of foot traffic whether it be pedestrians walking to the bline, or their pets, or children walking home from the school bus. This makes for a very dangerous situation. I realize this is not a residential neighborhood- it's more of a city street, but I am concerned for everyone's well being and I believe making that a four-way stop would aide in motorists to slow down and be more aware of their surroundings. Thank you, Amanda

I was wondering if there could be signage added on W. 3rd Street to encourage people to use the "zipper" merge when traveling westbound towards HWY 37 during this construction? When I try to travel home each day, traffic is backed up from the highway to Liberty Drive, with all cars in the right lane, due to signs warning of the left lane being closed ahead (at the intersection of Fairfield Dr. and Highway 37). People are trying to be courteous, but they are actually slowing down traffic by doing this. I have seen a sign before that said "Use both lanes during backup" - could that be a possibility? I live on Fairfield Dr., so everyday is tough and people seem to be making poorer choices each day because of the traffic. Thank you for your time.

With the closure of Walnut Street Pike the amount of traffic (and speeders) going down Jaime Ln/Heather Dr as an unlisted detour is making the neighborhood less safe. Can the city please install temporary speed bumps?

The intersection of South walnut/South walnut street pike and winslow is a two way stop when it absolutely needs to be a four way or have a light. During heavy traffic periods in the evening the intersection is impossible to cross or navigate and is extremely unsafe. Please do something about this awful intersection.

Dunstan and Allendale Dr. is a city and MCCSC bus stop, both on the NW corner and SE corner of this 4 way stop. This is the only 4 way stop on Allendale. Vehicles are constantly ignoring the traffic sign. Consideration to make this a proper crosswalk with crosswalk lines, or a bus stop sign, or flashing stop sign is being requested. I appreciate that a traffic study is being done on Allendale to show increased speeds and traffic on this road. THe safety of our kids, pedestrians, and bike riders is what is of major concern.

Adams bridge apparently seems to be getting hit by too big trucks regularly. Having spoken to folks near by, it seems like while there are markings available, they are not sufficent to prevent accidents. Could folks look into improving the marking in the area?

I am writing to express my opposition to the proposed changes to the traffic flow on Walnut, College, Atwater and Third Street for the following reasons: Traffic congestion on third street due the numerous busses that stop at each bus stop would make travel east on third street trecherous for drivers and pedestrians. Changing Walnut and College would require changing parking configurations and meters, a cost that is not small. There are many other more pressing needs in Bloomington for individuals with limited incomes, like housing. Also, if in fact there are facts to back the statement about cars going 40 Mph, why is there not a way to change the lights to prevent a person from reaching that speed. If in fact, that has found to be a problem by local law enforcement. Delivery trucks often block one lane of both College and Walnut and with two way traffic there will be traffic interuptions and the possibility for drivers taking dangerous risks to be able to get by the parked trucks. I have not seen evidence that crossing s street with two way traffic is less dangerous than crossing a street with one way traffic. We live in an age where instant gratification is rampid so people will take risks crossing the street, as I have seen. I saw a comment from one business in town, Gratzis, that wants the change. I have not seen that a survey of the other businesses has found. However, I question whether this is a business recommendation based onother cities or what. I can only hope that the outside company that is making these proposals has experience in working with communities with Bloomington’s unique town and gown population.

The intersection at W Isaac Drive and S Westplex Ave is now unmarked for traffic northbound and southbound on S Westplex Ave. Now that S Westplex is open from Third S to the south, northbound and southbound traffic has increased and moving fast for the neighborhood. Thank you for your attention.
