I would like to suggest adding a designated pedestrian crossing at this location. This area is frequently used by students and other pedestrians traveling to and from the IU campus. There are also churches, mosques, and residential areas nearby, which contribute to regular pedestrian activity. Crossing the street at this location can be difficult and unsafe because 3rd Street carries heavy traffic. The situation becomes especially challenging because vehicles coming from S. Rose Avenue are also merging into or crossing the traffic on 3rd Street. With pedestrians trying to cross at the same location, there are several movements happening at once, which can create a potentially dangerous situation. A clearly designated pedestrian crossing, along with appropriate signs, signals, or other pedestrian safety measures, would make this area much safer and more accessible. Given the proximity to the university, residential neighborhoods, and places of worship, I believe improving pedestrian access at this location would benefit both students and the surrounding community.

I really appreciate the traffic calming speed bumps that were recently installed on 11st. Can we get something similar between Adams and Fountain on 11th? It is a long flat stretch that people are driving at ridiculous speeds and also hot rodding thru late at night. There is increased pedestrian activity in this area and I would like to prevent an accident if possible. Thank you

Feedback for the pedestrian push button in front of the Bloomington Transit Center building: I think it would be helpful to have a button to cross W 3rd St facing the larger portion of the sidewalk. As a pedestrian, I am particularly aware of not getting too close to corners of sidewalks until my time to cross is ready, especially corners with low curbs that busses and trucks need to take tightly against the sidewalk in order to make the turn.

At the intersection of Kinser Pike and SR46. When travelling north on Kinser Pike on the south side of 46 and waiting to turn right (to head east on 46), there is room for a right turn lane, but it is only partially paved and has some major ruts that makes it almost impossible to turn right on red. I'd suggest paving this area and providing a full right turn lane to ease traffic congestion. Thanks

Crossing signal buttons on the corner of E 6th St and N Walnut don't face the natural flow of pedestrian traffic. It makes more sense to me that buttons would be able to be pushed from the wider sidewalk corridor instead of rolling my wheelchair out of the way and around the other side of the light post.

My comment is for the Engineering Department for their consideration pursuant to the March 30 public meeting at city hall regarding safety improvements at the intersection of East Morningside Drive and Smith Road. Most of the comments were related to the urgency of taking effective action to encourage southbound drivers on Smith Road to stop at the Morningside intersection. My comment addresses specific action to increase awareness of the presence of a Stop sign that is not visible to southbound drivers before they are near the intersection. Similar situations locally have been corrected by placing a STOP AHEAD flashing caution sign approximately 100 feet in advance of the Stop sign. That is about the same distance for the Stop sign to become visible to drivers cresting the hill south of the railroad. Flashing caution signs with solar powered lights on both sides of the street and located midway between the railroad underpass and the Morningside intersection would get the attention of southbound drivers as they approach the intersection. In addition, markings on the pavement south of the underpass and a few rumble strips would provide sound and vibration signals to drivers who may be distracted by using phones or other impairments to their full attention.

The northbound side of N Kinser Pike at the intersection with SR 45 could desperately use a dedicated right turn lane, as traffic often backs through multiple traffic light cycles. I already reached out to INDOT and they said that they don't have any funded projects on their end. BUT they would be willing to work with the city if we wanted to take the initiative. See below: Case #: CS0513872 Request Description: The northbound side of Kinser Pike could use a right-turn lane where it intersects with SR 45 in Bloomington. Folks frequently use the shoulder here as a makeshift turn lane but it is full of potholes and not well-suited for this purpose. A dedicated turn lane would greatly help improve throughput during busy times when the light is very short. There is ample room to expand, and it appears that the lots already belong to DOT and the Indiana DNR. Resolution: Thank you for contacting the Indiana Department of Transportation. Our Traffic Investigations Engineer has reported a turn lane would require widening with full-depth pavement and utility relocation. INDOT does not have any funded projects to construct a right turn lane at this location. If the City would like to pursue the addition of a turn lane on Kinser Pk, they can work with INDOT Permits. Construction season is in full swing, stay safe! Buckle Up, Phone Down.

Several (5) driveways (including ours at 2404) back into N. Headley Road just at the crest of a hill. Traffic is often fast going down to Griffy Lake. There potential for accidents involving people backing out of their driveways with limited visibility of traffic coming up the hill from either direction on N. Headley Rd. We would appreciate signaling on both sides of the hill that traffic should be aware of blind driveways at the top of the hill (5 driveways). e.g., "SLOW DOWN: Blind Driveways"

Request for a crosswalk be painted at 11th and Fee crossing 11th. That's a heavily trafficked area and there's no crosswalk.
