Traffic Signals

Case Date:
6/6/2018

I tried to call 812.349.3400 but got no answer. Thus, I used this form. I just wanted to report a possible glitch that may be happening in the traffic light at Covenanter and S. College Mall Rd. When I approached the light, traveling east on Covenanter, the light was flashing red. I assumed all lights were flashing red and treated it as a 4 way stop. A car on the other side approached the intersection as well. They also stopped. At the time no cars were coming down College Mall. They turned left (south) onto College Mall. I turned left (north) onto College Mall. Just after I turned vehicles were coming up behind me on College Mall, heading north without stopping at the intersection. I looked in my rearview mirror and the light for those on College Mall was green. This is a very dangerous situation as those of us on Covenanter had red flashing lights versus solid red lights. I turned up the road and returned to Covenanter to view the light cycle a few minutes later. The glitch appeared to go away and the traffic light seemed to be functioning properly again. However, it may be worth assessing to prevent possible collisions in the future.

I contacted IU but they said this light belongs to the city. The light to let pedestrians cross at 10th and Fee Lane (going from Kelley School to the Arboretum) is not working. I stood out there in the rain for 5 minutes today, pressing the button several times, but it did not turn to the pedestrian light when it was supposed to. Instead, cars kept going so I walked all the way up the sidewalk to the library where there is a "yield" pedestrian crosswalk; not that anyone does. This is a busy cross intersection for pedestrians, especially with orientation going on.

The traffic light on Patterson goes red after 1-3 cars pass through. This happens over and over again even though there are no cars on Farview. I have waited upwards of 7+ light cycles to get through this light. This delays drivers and increases pollution. This has been an issue for months, please fix the issue.

The left turn signal for south bound traffic on high st always comes on, even when there are no cars in the turn lane. This delays the north bound high st traffic, especially in the morning when it may take 3 light cycles because this malfunction.

S High St & E Hillside Dr, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:

The signal for High Street traffic always preferences the southbound traffic, even when there are no cars there. I frequently sit on the northbound side of the light waiting for it to give us the green when there are no cars at all on the southbound side. We've had cars waiting northbound, eastbound and westbound when only southbound had the green with no cars there.

2200 N Walnut St, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA

Case Date:

The north/south cycle at the intersection of College and 45/bypass is extremely short, to the point where only a few cars can make it through the green before the signal changes. This is potentially dangerous because folks will run the yellow to make it through. A traffic study is needed here, and potentially a smart sensor to permit more throughput when there are more cars waiting at the light.
