My husband and I were in Bloomington two weeks ago. We are from out of state. While driving the streets around the campus, we were shocked at how dark every street is. Especially now with the upperclass students moving off campus into apartments and houses this next school year, the city of Bloomington needs to take their safety into consideration.
The street light at the corner of 17th St. and Woodburn is dead or nearly so. It comes on for 20-30 seconds every now and then, but it's basically useless.
lights blocked by cables
Caller left a message that the street lights on the south side of Kirkwood from Walnut to Indiana St have been out for 2 days
Multiple street lights are going out/flashing in the location provided. Rogers St between the BLine trail and 8th St has two bad lights. The first is close to the Cook building and the other is closer to the BLine Trail. The BLine Trail has one light that is directly back from the bad light by the Cook building which is by the back end of their parking lot by the trail. 8th and Rogers has a light out on the North West side of the intersection. 8th Street by the BLine trail, alongside the side of the cook building also has a light that is bad. Also, the new parking garage has a light in the top of the stairwell that flashes very brightly and if you are walking along the BLine trail as it passes over 8th Street it startles you and somewhat blinds your sight and I feel this is somewhat unsafe for pedestrians along the trail.
On 8th St. in between Dunn and Indiana there are absolutely no street lights and it is pitch black at night. One block up the street (towards Grant) there are some but none on our side.
Street light out
There are no lights on the entire block of our street. It is a very dangerous situation, especially walking at night.
Parking lot light is on in the daytime
The street light on Dunn at Lakewood and Dunn is out. We heard a loud pop and saw a flash Monday morning, but didn't know what it was from. Then I noticed that street light is out.
