1001 E 10th St, Bloomington, IN 47405, USA

Case Date:
11/12/2022

After surveying several members of the Collins LLC, which is located on tenth street, a lot of us feel like a bike lane being constructed along most of tenth street would make the road much safer for pedestrians and cyclists while also improving connectivity between several crucial parts of the IU Campus: the Wells Library, the Luddy School of Informatics, the Kelley School of Business, and other key transportation points of the university that generate a lot of traffic. I feel that this route would benefit greatly from a bike lane that could help moderate the speeds of car traffic and provide more opportunities for a multimodal transportation system, making transportation more equitable and comfortable for those outside of a car.

This report is for the person that created #192463, in case they are checking on status. What you have reported has been reported before and obviously nothing has been done. The same thing has happened to others and me. I don't know what would constitute negligence on the city's part but... they have dropped the ball on this one. My $.02 is fixing the deep dip and drastically uneven surface at the intersection (that's what took me out) would be the least, installing a reflective post at the corners would be even better, or better yet a railing. Thank you for reporting your friend's experience and I hope they are not gravely injured and are doing okay. With any luck this will be addressed.

1100 W Allen ST

Case Date:

Heading west has one going up a steep hill, so sometimes I'm only going 8-10mph. Routinely do drivers pass me on my bike at dangerously close range. They also have on multiple occasions threatened me, verbally harassed me, and driven recklessly on this stretch. Street space is limited, so I would suggest yellow flex posts in the middle of the street to prevent reckless passing and so bikes can take the lane.

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

Case Date:
11/6/2023

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!

1411 N Kinser PIKE

Case Date:

Kinser Pike road and sidewalks have been destroyed for a long time now after the construction at 17th and Kinser. These should have been repaired right after the gas line construction. Do bad this isn't the Eastside or IU as you all would've had it repaired the next day

Would it be possible to have a crosswalk painted on South Rogers Street at the entrance to the parking lot of Switchyard Park? Thank you for your consideration.

1715 S Walnut St, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
5/30/2023

There is a pedestrian activated crossing from the Switchyard park over to the B-Link Trail on South Walnut. Activating the signal triggers a red light for traffic on South Walnut, but I constantly have issues here with traffic blowing through the red light, often at high speeds. Is there anything that can be done to make this crossing safer for pedestrians and cyclists?

1930 E 7th ST

Case Date:
2/23/2023

This street is part of the 7 line and yet doesn’t have any traffic demarcation. Needs lane/yellow lines and white bike symbols. This was needed 4 years ago. They are completely gone now leading people to believe it is a one way street. This street (all of 7th, on campus) is part of the city’s green initiative and alternative transportation effort. thanks!

200 S Jefferson ST

Case Date:

East Fourth Street on the east side of Jefferson is blocked by tree limbs. The limbs hang down across Fourth (which at that point is just a pedestrian path) and extend down almost to the surface of the path.
