Would it be possible to extend the turn signal time at Kinser/Madison and Hwy 46? When turning left from Kinser/Madison onto Hwy 46, the light only allows 2 cars to get through before changing. When Bloomington North lets out or the normal 5pm rush hour, I have sat through that light waiting to turn as much as 4 times and on one occasion several months ago, traffic was backed up and I sat through 7 signal changes before finally being able to turn. It really slows down traffic and backs it up. Thank You for your consideration.

If starting at Green Valley Drive and heading south (south west) on Normandale Lake Blvd, it is very difficult to see at the intersection of Normandale Lake Blvd and American Blvd W. (especially if turning left/east or going straight). This intersection has always been hard to see around due to the curve of the street (and was made worse when snow piled up), but now there is a new chain link fence and trailer for construction making it very hard to see cars coming. This has turned into a dangerous intersection with cars moving fast on American Blvd (especially those coming from the East). Even changing this to a 4-way stop during construction would help, but it really needs a better fix long-term. Thanks.

6th & Washington: saw a car southbound on Washington almost turn west onto 6th. There is a one-way sign on the SE corner, but nothing on the west side saying "do not enter."

the stop sign by showplace 11, when approached from the west side street off college mall rd. is hidden behind branches that over hang the tall hedge. The sign needs to be visible before one gets to it. Generally one or two branches are trimmed occasionally. That's not enough.

hello. through the years we have had a few complaints and it has become more frequent as of the last couple about no street sign. The street is Varsity Lane and there has never been a street sign and it is the only street in the area off of Dunn st. that has never had one. We would like to request a street sign for Varsity Lane on corner of varsity lane and N. Dunn street. Thanks.....

7th & Grant is a 4-way stop. None of the Stop signs has the little "4 WAY" sign under the "STOP" sign.

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.

Still issues at Rhorer Road and S. Walnut St. Pike intersection where white lines are about 6 feet behind stop signs. Confusion on where to stop. Please fix.
