"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.
I was traveling east on 10th St. and got into the right-hand turn lane (with turn signal on) to turn right/south on Smith Road. As I turned right, a car facing north on Smith Road turned left to head west on 10th St. and did not see an oncoming car and the eastbound car on 10th street had to brake quickly to avoid an accident...stopping within a few feet of the turning car. With the new traffic light at the Post Office intersection on 10th st, GPS is routing more people east/west on 10th street to/from Smith Rd and more locals are also using this route. This is turning an already dangerous intersection more dangerous. Turning left off smith onto 10th street requires timing to avoid a car coming east around the curve on east 10th street...and the same for turning left onto Smith off 10th street. Please consider a stop light at this intersection. Thank You.
Please, reading about Bloomington traffic, we are SO SLOW HERE (though need to obey lights better) so do not slow further. Can absolutely slow neighborhoods but the entire city shouldn't be neighborhood. There is essentially no E/W route. Traffic is worse for a town this size than any I have ever visited (have visited many). Thanks! We need real roads. Can grid some slow places but need more arterials.
This is the worst stop ever for a bus stop. On two occasions, I have witnessed close calls by drivers stopping very hard and abruptly. It's at a location where the two lanes into the roundabout begin, but cars stop making everyone behind them stop. Very, very, very, very BAD location for a bus stop.
Really need double Yellow line down 10th St between Morton & Rogers. Drivers get confused at the parking lot entrances as to which way 10th St actually goes. With all the new students it is getting worse.
There are no lane markings on most of Sare rd
In the north bound lane at the intersection of Grimes and Walnut the turn lane is backed up all the way across Hillside. The left turn light to turn onto Grimes is only long enough for a few car to go at a time. There were 12 cars in the turn lane around noon. Only 3 were able to turn on the green arrow. Thus it would/could take 4light cycles to get through the intersection. I recommend increasing the length of the green turn arrow at peak traffic times. Thank you.
17th st west of roundabout to Fountain, speed limit signs; westbound two 25mph, eastbound two 20mph one 25mph. wbound traffic goes from 25 to 20 with no signage, if you drive 3mph over at 28, you will be clocked at 8mph over when u pass 20mph signs facing eastbount traffic.
The construction on west side of town needs completed! People are moving and shopping elsewhere. I will avoid it, its a joke to spend an hour or more in traffic.
the road off lawson is captains way there is no street sign
