Bloomington's traffic signal timing is, in general, inadequate. Traffic patterns in the city are highly variable, changing drastically as students arrive and leave with the university schedule and as new student housing is constructed. It would be wonderful if the city were to invest in a system which changes traffic signals in real time as a function of data collected from sensors at intersections. Surely there will be graduate students, postdocs, and faculty in the Luddy School eager to help out with a cool "smart city" project...

The traffic light and pedestrian crosswalk lights are causing close calls with pedestrians. The green arrow for the turn lane and the walk sign come on at the same time. This is dangerous for pedestrians crossing the bypass as cars are not looking for pedestrians due to green arrow.

Since construction started on Winslow Rd. between Walnut St. Pike and S. Walnut St., westbound traffic on Winslow has been a mess due to the single westbound lane approaching the intersection with S. Walnut St. If there is a mix of cars going straight and cars turning left in the single westbound lane, only 2-3 cars make it through on each cycle of the traffic light. During this construction, westbound Winslow Rd. at Walnut St. should either be made "no left turn" or the traffic light cycle should be changed so that westbound traffic gets a period of simultaneous green light and green left turn arrow to allow traffic to clear.

It would be really nice to have a traffic light put at the intersection of Dillman Road & Old SR37. This intersection is horrible & I have about had many wrecks there just trying to pull out

I have noticed multiple times when trying to cross the street at Smith & Walnut that the pedestrian walk signal does not seem to always be synced properly with the traffic light. The walk light often does not turn on when the traffic on Walnut is stopped at the light. It is incredibly confusing and concerning as it is a place where children often cross with The Project School and Rhino's being near by. If someone could take a look at it, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The traffic light at the intersection of Rhorer and South Walnut it seems that sensors are not working properly. Turn arrows are happing when no traffic is present.
