Caller has witnessed many people ignoring the stop sign at the corner of Clarizz and Buick Cadillac Dr. Because some children cross at that intersection walking to Binford-Rogers, she wonders about putting in a pedestrian crossing signal or crosswalk.
Many students cross 10th Street near John Hinkle Pl. to get to the #6 bus stop. Should a safety survey be conducted in this location?
Dangerous pedestrian crossing at Walnut and Grimes. I have almost been hit 3 times in the last 2 weeks by inattentive drives as I cross Walnut at Grimes (southern crosswalk) as I walk to the B-Line. Please consider improvements to the crosswalk so that pedestrians are more visible to drivers. Thanks.
The Bloomington Bagel Company at 113 N. Dunn Street recently installed giant umbrellas on their outdoor patio tables. As a result, the tables and chairs are extending into the pedestrian right of way on the sidewalk. The umbrellas are also not tall enough to safely walk under. It appears to be presenting several hazards and blocking safe access for pedestrians and individuals who use wheelchairs.
Pedestrian traffic light at the corner of S Rockport and S Rogers is totally blocked by overhanging branches. Across from the Citgo gas station.
The corner of Moores Pike and Claris currently has flashing Yellow lights to help pedestrians cross Moores Pike. Drivers view yellow lights as a call to speed up not Stop. I walk there frequently but cars seldom slow or stop Sometimes the cars speed up, either to beat the light or to run over me. Perhaps it would help to change the lights to red which means Stop. Or install a regular stop light. Also, at the Southeast corner of Hillside Dr and College Mall Rd. The crossing light turns on when the vehicles turn right from Sare Rd onto Hillside Dr. This is very dangerous for the pedestrian since the corner is not visible to the cars turning right. Thank you Carol Reimers A concerned pedestrian
