Street Lights

Main streetlight often doesn't work, leaving the whole street dark. I feel unsafe walking home some nights, and when it is out, particularly so.

Street light comes on for about a minute, then just glows, then comes back on, etc.
Street light goes off and on during the night.
There are no street lights next to the bus stop on East Hagan Street and it feels unsafe when having to wait for the bus during the night, or even when getting off the bus. It would be very helpful if a street light could be installed in the area.
Light is not operating.
I would like to understand what behavior would indicate that a streetlight is starting to fail. The streetlight at this location is sometimes working properly (i.e., full brightness) when it's dark, off when it's light/bright during the day, and then there are times where the light is only at ~25% brightness, or it goes completely dark during the night time ... which, to me, defeats the purpose of having the streetlight in the first place. I'm not sure if that's considered normal operation or if that means it's starting to have problems. The neighbors whose homes are in front of this streetlight are worried whether it's working properly. More important, they are concerned and don't feel safe when they go out at night and the streetlight is "off". I don't know if this indicates a problem, so wanted to ask to have it looked into, as appropriate. Thanks, Rob Aney robaney@yahoo.com
The street light is on and off irregularly at night. Could you make it ON all night long? Thank you.
The street light between 3852 and 3856 E Regents Cir, is flickering off and on but now mostly off. We would appreciate your looking into it. Thank you, Vern
Light comes on and off, flickers and flashes. Is off more than on. Has been this way for a few years. A no parking sign on the light pole is numbered 18791 if that helps.
From an international student friend who lives in the apartments off Hagan St: "The area where I live does not have many public lights. When we students come home late in the night, we get off the bus and it is very dark, it is kind of eerie to walk in such a dark area, even if it is just less than half a mile. It really strikes me that there is no public lights in an area like that, where there are hundreds of students. I was wondering if it is possible at all to contact somebody from the city government and request that a lamp be set up there -it is the corner of Hagan St and S. Park Ridge Rd. I guess students come and go every year and nobody really cares or speak up about things like that, which may appear insignificant, but kind of matter. It is so dark, that sometimes when I come back home carrying my laptop with me, I need to be careful so as not to bump into something and fall and break the laptop. It is like you cannot actually see where you are walking. I have wondered how these sort of things are handled here in bloomington. So I am just curious to know if you think there is something that can be done to get some public lights in these streets." - Lina Ochoa
