In the alley adjacent to Bloomington Center for Global Children at 1111 North Walnut Street, traffic often travels both ways. As a parent who picks up a young child there, I am keenly aware of the danger presented by a two way alley adjacent to a child care center. I am requesting that this alley be made one way with traffic control as well, as the traffic traveling north on Walnut street presents another danger to those individuals turning west into the alley next to the center.

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.

Please, could we have flag men at First & Henderson? Very busy intersection, many close calls due to work being done. Have seen flag men on site 2 times in 2 weeks. Thank you.

Traffic jams on 2nd and 3rd streets. Synchronizing the lights would greatly reduce backed up traffic. A lot of times during rush hours traffic is halted because the lights all seemingly change at different times

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.

Eastbound automobile traffic on allen st approaching patterson faces a "no turn on red" sign. However, the right turn curb radius there is more than 30 ft, meaning drivers will not only ignore that sign, they will do so at 20mph on a regular basis! Extremely dangerous and frightening for pedestrians in the area. Practically a guaranteed collision for anyone who bikes on the sidewalk there - is that your plan?

Our children, with 2 adult supervisors have to take a chance by crossing the street to go from the east side of S Highland Avenue to the west side of S Highland to go and enjoy the Winslow Woods park. Please paint a crosswalk on S Highland Avenue leading from YMCA entrance to across the street to the Winslow Wood Park. Will need to erect signage for motorists to see there is a crosswalk. Children and adults could safely cross the street and not fear for their lives.

Near 1100 W Allen St there is a hill that cars come flying down, resulting in accidents with cars, and bicylists trying to exit a parking near the hill. It is a very dangerous situation, that could be made safe through the installation of a speed bump in the east bound lane of W Allen st, near the HIlltop Village Apartments.

Speeding cars on a regular basis on W. Allen street, right in front of the hill by Hilltop Village Apartments. Please put a speed bump, or some sort of speed deterrent. There have been several incidents due to speeding cars in front of Mother Hubbard's Cupboard.
