Several traffic lights on College Mall Road have their timing off in the early morning. They are red for an extended time when no one is there. The problem areas are at Covenanter, Buick-Cadillac and by Fazolis. The flow of traffic is greatly hindered. They were fine before the two recent wind storms.
Traffic light on Atwater and Indiana very long on the Indiana side almost two minutes. On Atwater going towards the east side the light stays green for a long time. Once the light on Indiana changes only about 3 cars can go before it turns red again.
Recently, I've noticed something odd with the timing of the traffic lights, to the point that it almost seems like the city's purposely changed them, I'm not good number of flights around town as soon as one turns green and you start the next one will purposely turn red before you even get to it and this is many many of the lights around town day and night so you literally have to stop at every light, honestly this was done on purpose?
The traffic light that is off patterson next to catalnt. Maybe someone with the city can come fix it. It's been broke going on a month it turns green then red every 15 20 sec . It really bullshit that it's still going on. The best part is it does this day and night and even better there is no traffic in north to south.
Why is the stop light at St Rt 46 and St Rt 446 on flashing red during rush hour times in late afternoon and evening? Been through there several times in the past few days in late afternoon and evening and it has been flashing red for all directions. Creates long lines on both east and west bound 46. Tonight I saw 2 motorcycles coming from the east on 46 who went into the left hand turn, didn't stop and continued on straight west on 46. The line of traffic on the east bound 46 backed up to the gas station at the top of the hill. Doesn't make any sense to be flashing red.
Pedestrian crossing does not switch to “walk” and hasn’t for a month. 2nd and College Mall Rd, Eastland Plaza intersection with College Mall Rd., East 3rd St and Pete Ellis Dr, East 3rd St and street next to Bloomingfoods
Signal out of sync
The traffic signal at east 3rd and Smith Rd the south bound side of Smith Rd at east 3rd needs a left turn arrow to help with the flow of traffic. Cars wanting to turn left on 3rd have to wait for on coming traffic. Some cars don't move forward or scoot over to allow other cars to get around them. Sometimes only one or two cars make it through the intersection and during busy times I've seen it back up passed the train underpass and as far as 10th Street. I have reported this before and was told that was a INDOT light and INDOT said it was a city of Bloomington light. I figured whoever paid for the paving and handicap sidewalk improvements on smith road would be responsible for the traffic light. And with all the apartments being built on the east side traffic is only going to get worse. I've lived in park ridge east for 20 years and it has always been a issue. Send someone out and have them stand at the entrance of Park ridge east on morningside and Smith and watch the traffic. A left turn arrow for 8 to 10 seconds would keep the flow of traffic moving better.
The walk signs for crossing Dunn on the north side of 3rd have recently stopped giving the white safe to walk indication. The signals just stay in the orange don't walk configuration. Since Dunn is one way southbound crossing Dunn on the north side of 3rd is completely safe when there is a green light in auto traffic to proceed in either direction on 3rd.
Pedestrian cross signal’s button immobile, does not activate.
