Greetings! The traffic lights at the intersection of Walnut and old-37 on the north side of Bloomington seem to have a problem detecting large vehicles (I drive a Durango) on the west-bound side (east side of intersection). This problem has been ongoing since mid-summer when the first maintenance began on the traffic equipment at this intersection. The problem is most noticeable at night when no cars are in the east-bound lane to trip the light. At times I have waited up to 5 minutes and have had to just drive through the red light if no other cars come behind me or pull up on the east-bound lane to trip the light. Often I have to back up and move forwards again multiple times to trigger the light. I live near this intersection and have to drive it daily late at night so this has become a major nuisance. Thanks for your consideration of investigating this issue. Thanks, -Nathan
Today I was southbound at Adams and Bloomfield Road. I waited over two minutes to turn right (since there is a "No turn on red" sign there). Traffic on Bloomfield Road was minimal... hopefully a sensor is out or something to sense cars on Adams Street. FYI - Found this link thanks to Hotline in the HT!
Traffic light loose
There is a great need for turn light at intersection of S. Woodcrest and E. Third Street. Traffic is heavy on Third street and nearly inpossible to turn onto woodcrest from thrid street without chancing collisions. I work in this area and am presented with this problem almost daily. There is always cars honking at other vehicles and persons taking a chance on turning when it is not safe to do so. We were told there would be a turn light installed a couple years ago but....we have not seen any indication of this happening. Please make it happen-East Third has been improved but now the turn problem will be worse.
I live on the corner of 2nd and Walnut, which is primarily business surrounded by businesses. However, there are five residents living at this location. A new stop light has been added to the corner of 2nd and Walnut, which is great in controlling traffic. However, there is now a constant beeping that is extremele noticeable and quite loud when there is less traffic to drown the beeping out. This beeping can be heard throughout our entire house and is severely affecting our living conditions. While this seems trivial, it has affected my ability to focus on work and study and also my ability to sleep. My roommates and I need to get this beeping shut off. It is bearable during the day and beneficial for citizens in a high traffic area, but at night and early morning it has become disruptive to residents around the area. Please contact me on how I can bring attention to this problem and find a solution.
The left turn arrow from eastbound Hillside to northbound Henderson comes on every time I pass through this intersection (right in front of Feast). It's on my daily commute and I've noticed it for quite a while now. Anything you can do to fix this would be appreciated. (sorry if this is a duplicate message - my tablet wasn't working right)
Left turn sensor is stuck... Left turn arrow from eastbound hillside onto northbound Henderson always comes on. I commute through this area and have noticed this for quite a while now. Thanks for your help!
Left turn sensor stuck on? Left turn arrow from eastbound Hillside onto northbound Henderson (in front of Feast) comes on every time regardless of whether a car is there. I commute through the area each day and it's been this way for quite a while. Thanks for all the good work you guys do.
One of the yellow lights at this intersection is out.
