There are multiple AT&T work vehicles parked in the new 7-line separated bike lane between Walnut and College. This was in addition to the numerious delivery vehicles I had just encountered double parked in the bike lane on Walnut. What's the point of all this great bike infrastructure if it turns into a parking spot whenever convenient?

With a beautiful 55 degree day in February everyone was out walking and rising bikes along Allen Street Greenway between College and Henderson. I'm shocked no one died. Several cars barreled down Allen at 40+ miles per hour and I personally watched 3 separate pedestrians nearly lose their lives. More signage, brighter roadway paint, barriers are needed to keep cara from speeding past kids walking home from school.

The reflective signs designating the runoff/curb/flower boxes on Allen Street are white. They completely disappear in the snow. Several cars have driven into and over the curbs. Large yellow/green/red signs are needed to make these less hazardous.

The pedestrian crossing signal button to walk from East to West across S Walnut St does not work. The one on the south East corner. I've tested it a few times in the late afternoon and waited through several full traffic light cycles. The pedestrian crossing buttons on the other corners and directions do work.

At 7:26 am on 11/31/2023, a motorist in a dark BMW nearly ran me over as I was crossing the street. The vehicle was traveling about 50 MPH based on my calculation (speed=distance/time.) This is not the first near miss that I have had crossing the street or backing out of my driveway. I have sent in requests for a speed hump as motorist travel north and south between 3rd and 5th much faster than 25 MPH. I have not heard back from anyone. Please let me know that you have at least seen this uReport ticket. I tried to submit this report in the "Close Call" section more than once and it does not work.

121 N Pete Ellis Dr, Bloomington, IN 47408, USA

Case Date:

There are some new safety concerns since the "Relato" building opened next to the multi-use path between Pete Ellis and the bypass on 7th Street. First, there's a conflict point where the garage exits to 7th street. Cars are already pulling quickly across the path towards the street, while bike traffic doesn't necessarily slow for the blind corner of the garage exit either. I've included a photo of a location where this is handled better. This is from the new development on the old K-Mart lot which also has a garage that immediately crosses a bike path. At that location, green boxes with white chevrons appear where the bike and car traffic cross, indicating to both parties that it's a conflict point. ------ The second safety concern is where the multi-use path takes right-angle turn around the corner of the Relato. This used to be an empty field with great sight lines and now those sight lines are blocked. At this corner I have already seen what could have been a couple near collisions due to the shortened sight lines. A treatment that could help here would be what was done at the right angle turn going into the bypass underpass tunnel-- Add a solid center line going around the corner to indicate that parties in both directions should stay in their lane going around the corner. I feel that treatment has made the underpass corner safer and I think it would help signal safer behavior here, too. Thanks!
