Heading east on 17th st, turning north into Fee lane, the left turn light is never activated. There is usually heavy westbound traffic when people attempting a left at this light and it can be difficult to fit in a turn with unending oncoming traffic.

I sent this on February 20th, and haven't heard from anyone.

We are writing to you again because of two more accidents at this same corner (14th Street and Walnut Street). Danna Workman was assigned to this on October 13, 2018, then she assigned it to Adam Wason, who then assigned it to Terri Porter; however, we have been reporting this problem corner to the City for many years. On February 5, 2018 we heard from Andrew Cibor, Transportation and Traffic Engineer, who encouraged us to submit comments via a mapping tool. We submitted our comments on February 6, 2018, but as of yet have heard nothing.
On December 20, 2018 we wrote to you asking for a few traffic signs from 2nd Street to 17th Street on the Walnut corridor, but nothing has been done, and we have not received a response.
One of the last accidents hit our landscaped flower bed and took out our irrigation as well as our treated landscape wood to hold in the mulch and flowers. We had to replace the landscape wood, but will have to wait until Spring to replace the irrigation system there.
The other recent accident (February 16, 2019) took out another irrigation head, but worst yet, it took down the very large City street light with a light attached to it for our parking lot, which we pay Duke Energy for every month.
You have told us in years past that you are not seeing that many accidents reported to the City; however, if only one car is involved or even two, many times it goes unreported, and they fix their cars themselves, but our damage is left for us to repair.
Last year, you did install white posts on the west side of Walnut along with pedestrian lines on the street. However, that has done nothing to slow the traffic or stop accidents. I saw two young people on scooters yesterday trying to cross at that corner, and I was concerned for their safety, as the cars were speeding by without stopping for the pedestrians.
It was reported in the newspaper this morning that Mayor Hamilton is spending quite a lot of money to assess the trees in Bloomington. And, while that maybe needed, I feel the safety of the residents of Bloomington and their guests is needed more.
Please respond to us as soon as possible.
Kindest Regards,

It seems that the timing of the traffic lights on College through downtown needs to be re-set or something. I drive that route 4 mornings a week at about 5:45 am and typically I will stop at a light at either 10th or 11th and from then on it's smooth sailing. Starting last week, the timing was off, and since then I've had to stop at as many as 5 intersections between 11th and 1st Streets. Just wanted to let you know! :) Thanks!
