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.
Stop sign almost completely faded on Hyde park circle culdesac
Please designate turn lanes (even if it's just one lane) at the stop sign heading east on Covenanter Drive at Buick-Cadillac Blvd (and entrance to Kroger). It is hard enough when people in B'ton tend to lack a knowledge of 4-way stop laws, and the use of turn signals is inconsistent at best. Thanks!!
The intersection of 14th and Indiana is very dangerous. If heading west on 14th street the incline of Indiana in combination with the parked cars along Indiana causes for you to not be able to see if it is safe to cross. I believe that a 4 way stop on the corner of Indiana and 14th is needed. I personally have seen many near accidents as I am a resident of this area and have almost gotten into an accident myself due to not being able to see traffic driving south on Indiana. Feel free to contact me about more information. As a student, I do not want to see other students become injured due to blocked line of view.
The crosswalk on Henderson near Templeton school between Driscoll and Wilson continues to be dangerous. We use it daily to and from school with many other kids and routinely have close calls with cars speeding through. I think part of this is foliage blocking the flashers, but would like to also suggest pedestrian flags be provided on both sides of the street. We've used them living in other towns and they are really great. Here's a website that explains their use in another city http://www.kirklandwa.gov/depart/Public_Works/Transportation_and_Traffic/Pedestrian_Flags_-_FAQs.htm
I'm not sure if this intersection is in Bloomington City limits, or within the jurisdiction of Monroe County. As you enter Gates Drive from westbound N. Jacob Drive (by Wendy's), the flowers and plants have grown so high that you cannot see northbound traffic on Gates Drive. I entered this intersection twice today and had close calls because I could not see oncoming traffic, and I'm in a large pickup. Thanks.
We would like to post or have the city post signage redirecting 46 bypass traffic to pete ellis for the businesses effected by the closed entrance to the strip malls at 46 Bypass and 3rd Street. At Starbucks, we have lost over a third of our business since the closing of that entrance. Similar reports are available from the surrounding local businesses.
At a neighborhood Fourth of July party, the question came up on whether the faded stop sign at the corner of Forrester (north side) and Daniel will be replaced and moved in front of the tree that partially blocks it so motorists will stop at that intersection. We have a lot of children who walk to the park by both stop signs on Forrester and Daniel, so we were hoping there is a way to mark those intersections so they stop. Is there anyone in the city we should pose this question to? Thanks for any advice you can provide.
I have a business at 3rd & Dunn and I watch vehicles go the wrong way almost everyday. Last Friday, a motorcycle rider almost got hit by another vehicle. The motorcycle driver ran up on the curb to avoid a collision. There is a one way sign located on the base of the stop light. That's not enough to warn people not to go the wrong way in oncoming traffic. Cars in both directions are traveling at fast rates of speed. It's only a matter of time when a bad wreck is going to occur. I seen two cars go the wrong way today within two minutes of each other. Also, there is one side of the street that needs a predestian crossing signal. I see students crossing at that corner taking a big risk crossing or attempting to cross the street with no idea that a vehicle is approaching the light. This is truly a problem and I don't want to witness someone getting hurt or killed because no one took action.
Engineering ordered and delivered a replacement sign for Valhalla Memory Gardens to be placed on the south side of the intersection of W. 3rd Street and Johnson Avenue, facing eastbound traffic. There is excess right-of-way to the south in that area due to the right-of-way purchased for the Basswood extension to Johnson.
