There needs to be 1 or 2 streetlights put it on east 12th street between Grant street and North Walnut. It is especially dark in between Lincoln and Washington street and at night you cannot see the sidewalk at all. Most people living on E12th street are students, many of whom have night classes ending as late as 9 or 10pm. My roommates and I specifically have classes ending at 8:30 and 9 when the streets are too dark to see anything. With the current atmosphere in Bloomington, many residents of 12th street feel unsafe walking home from class, work, or to their neighbors. Installing A street lamp or two would greatly improve the safety and comfort of people living on E 12th street. The attached photo shows just how dark the sidewalk is with out a flash light at night. No one should have to feel afraid of walking down their own street at 8pm and the addition of street lamps on E12th street can help fix this.
The sidewalk from High to Arden passes through a small wooded area that is not lit. It is intimidating to walk through. There is an electric transfer box nearby between two properties. Hopefully a light can be installed.
The middle LED street light over the sidewalk and pedestrian bridge alongside Country Club just west of Burger King is out. There are three lights along this walking and riding sidewalk and bridge, and the middle one has been out for many months.
The middle LED sidewalk light west of the pedestrian bridge alongside Country Club has been out for a year. I've reported this before.
The crest of the hill on 8th street has inadequate lighting. People on the sidewalk are invisible for security purposes, and cannot see obstacles to walk safely. A neighbor hit my car door because he could not see it. People leave their porch lights on all night, so we have some visibility.
Street light across the street (the west side) from 1324 North Kinser Pike is out. It is a hazard to check the mailboxes, and the whole area is VERY dark on the west side driveways, and the sidewalk on the east side.
Street light hit and is down across sidewalk and neighbors driveway. Light pole address on Dukes map is 3604 S Essex Court.
There are two street lights out I believe are city maintained that are just flashing. They are on 100 W. Kirkwood. First one is in front of Tivoli. It’s next to last closest too College Ave. it’s by a bench. Didn’t see a number on pole. Second light is next to the entrance to Fountain Square Mall. It’s the pole that would be close to Walnut. Or if your looking at the entrance from the sidewalk, it would on the right. It’s also just flashing nonstop as well.
Streetlights on 7th between Indiana and Dunn have been totally off since construction of new bike lane. Absolutely no light on street or sidewalk at night.
