Traffic Signals

800-1720 North Range Road

Case Date:
8/19/2014

The traffic light here lacks left turn signals, which leads to people getting stuck in line behind people turning left, this problem exists for people going both directions. Because of the volume of traffic, it can take a cycle of 3 or more lights before turning left is possible. What happens then, is that people are passing the cars on the right, on the median or in the intersection, to get through the light. I have seen several near accidents here. Every morning and afternoon, you can see people doing this. It is an hourly occurrence and often involves several vehicles. It is an accident in the making.

Since the repaving on High St. the light favors traffic on High instead of the more travelled road of Hillside causing traffic to move less smoothly along Hillside.

321 S Jordan AVE

Case Date:
7/3/2015

I often bike north on Jordan avenue to 3rd St., then turn left onto 3rd with the traffic light. Before the recent construction, the left turn signal appeared to be on a timer, and now it seems to be activated by a metal-sensitive loop in the pavement. But so far I have been unable to trigger the left turn signal with my bicycle. I have been instructed to ride exactly on the wire, and I ride a steel frame bike from 1970, so it should have plenty of metal to be detected. Is there some way to make sure this traffic light actuator is sensitive enough to work for bicyclists as well as for cars?

2483-2499 East 3rd Street

Case Date:
7/6/2015

To whom it may concern: I'm writing today about the intersection of S. Hillsdale Dr and E 3rd St in Bloomington, Indiana. Specifically, I'm concerned with the functioning of the traffic signal at that intersection. In short, because the stop line is set pretty far back on Westbound lane of E 3rd St, Westbound drivers rushing through the yellow light have to go a very long way, much longer than those of us using the yellow to make a left turn northbound onto Hillsdale (when there is traffic, there is no choice except making left on the yellow). I'm not doing a great job explaining it here but given the long set-back, it seems odd that both of those lights turn yellow at the same time. I'd be happy to explain better via phone and/or someone could easily observe this dynamic at said intersection. Thanks

While driving home the last two nights (after midnight, I noticed the lights at the intersection of N. College and the 46 Bypass were on their regular daytime timing pattern and not set to change on demand. Has that been changed (hope not) or is it broken?
