Traffic light completely out
Traffic light completely out
The attached photo shows the pedestrian signal at the corner of East 3rd Street and Woodscrest Drive in Bloomington. As you can see, northbound traffic on Woodscrest has a right-turn arrow at the same time that pedestrians crossing 3rd Street have a "walk" signal, which puts them directly in the path of the turning traffic. Surely this is not the way a properly designed pedestrian signal is supposed to work! Imagine the lawsuit when a motorist strikes a pedestrian in this crosswalk and it turns out they were both obeying their signals...
Street sign at intersection of Sheffield & Plymouth has apparently been hit by a car (45 degree angle--no pedestrian or traffic hazard however)
Light is completely out. No flashers.
East 6th Street traffic stop at Dunn: there appears to be a stop sign, which I also believe had a 1 way and Do Not Enter sign on it, missing. Thanks!
The street sign at the intersection of East Stephens and Deckard is both bent in half and tilted upward, making it incredibly difficult to read.
The lights for the 10th street westbound traffic stayed red for several light cycles while the eastbound traffic lights changed as expected. I reported this issue about 4 years ago as well.
SR45 at Airport Road: recently the light for traffic on 45 has a very short green signal (5-6 cars' worth). I don't know if it's constantly like that or triggered when there are cars approaching from Airport. I noticed it a couple of weeks ago and people in local Facebook groups are commenting about it. It's been 5:15 pm when I'm there and sometimes traffic gets very backed up on 45.
Traffic light at intersection of Airport Road and SR 45 appears to have changed from on-demand from Airport RD to a timed sequence. The result has been that traffic is often backed up on SR 45 to Curry Pike.
Light at state rd 46 and N Smith Pike has crosswalk signal stuck on so traffic is constantly waiting for nonexistent pedestrians. Its been this way for several days now. This is a recurring problem.
