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 light heading westbound on 3rd street at the intersection with Jordan cycles through very fast. With the construction happening on 3rd and Jordan traffic at peak hours backs up all the way to South High Street. It seems like it could be an easy traffic fix if the light heading westbound on 3rd were to remain green longer.
Ignore my last suggestion, had two screens up but realized I pasted into the wrong one - wrong state :)
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.
A south-facing speed limit sign on Union just north of 7th and a north-facing speed limit sign on Union just south of 10th incorrectly state the speed limit as 25mph. According to muni code 15.24.020, Union is 30mph from 3rd to Law.
There is an unmarked meridian as you approach 3rd street going north on Clarizz. At night, it's difficult to see the concrete meridian because you are driving up hill. There needs to be a sign there, directing you to veer to the right.
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.
Hello! I was wondering if it's possible for us to get a street sign for Howe Street off of Rogers Street. Heading South on Rogers you come over a hill and it's hard for most drivers to know when the street is coming because we don't have a sign. Thanks!
No clearance sign on south side of Fess railroad underpass.
One of my constituents is wondering why there are not more 25 MPH speed limit signs on Grant St. between Grimes and Hillside. Are you still in process of putting these up? Also, there need to be more on Washington and Lincoln along the same stretch, she says.
