This pedestrian intersection of the B-line and rogers NEEDS A STOP SIGN FOR TRAFFIC! I have been hit by a car here once already, and have been nearly hit several times after that, despite wearing high-vis safety gear and having 6 total lights(including in-rim wheel lights for side visablitiy). I see cars fly through this cross walk at full speed, everyday. I cycle to work every day as well, and often cross here. The angle at which the intersection happens makes it hard for cars to see if bikes or pedestrians are coming from certain directions. There are currently only 2 stop signs on the entire B-line trail where cars MUST stop for pedestrians(which is a clear safety oversight for a town claiming to be bike friendly), and this spot absolutely needs one as well. ALSO, speaking of stop signs on the B-line, you should place an undercover traffic cop at the intersection of the B-line and 7th where there is an actual stop sign, and you'll be ticketing every other person since they nearly all do rolling "stops" at this cross walk. I nearly got hit by a huge black SUV last week and had to yell at the dumb cunt driving who didn't stop at all and just drove right through the crosswalk with me rapidly approaching, all my lights on, high-vis motorcycle helmet and everything, she sees me and just keeps going... seriously, I have no doubt in my mind that if you had an officer watching that intersection they'd get their ticket quota in a day, easy. It's time Bloomington puts its money where its mouth is and does something about the safety of the B-line crosswalks.

Street lines and signs not enough to avoid a head on collision. Temporary lines are not sticking to pavemnet. Have seen motorists make north-flow clairizz a 2 lane one way.
I appreciate the new road updates to make the left turn out of Walnut Pike onto E Winslow Road even more inaccessible. It would be nice to have some clearer signage, though, especially for those out of town unfamiliar with the area. Further south on Walnut Pike where it connects to S Walnut Street Pike it might be nice to have a sign saying "no left turn ahead" or something similar.
Deer cross S. Rogers St. daily in one particular location, on the north side of the 2129 S Rogers St property. An increasing number of cars fly down the road all day and lots of people use the sidewalk so its a risk not only to the deer but to motorists and pedestrians. I am requesting a deer crossing sign be installed on both sides of the road. My mom lives at 2219 S Rogers St. and we frequently see deer and their babies nearly get hit (and have been hit). If you face 2129 S Rogers, you will see the area on the far left side of the property where they cross near the trees. Thank you for considering this signage. I didn't have a photo but can provide any other helpful info if needed.
'NO TRUCKS' traffic sign on Moore's Pike, heading towards the roundabout, across from the cemetery, near the intersection with High Street is obscured by overhanging greenery.
I took this picture from University & Henderson. You cannot see the stop sign at 1st street at all. You cannot see it from 2nd & Henderson either, but I cannot upload more than 1 photo.
A stop sign at Allendale and Westminster (for cars going east on Allendale--sign is on south side of road)is constantly being ignored by folks driving on Allendale. Is foliage blocking the sign maybe? We need some traffic calming measures before someone gets injured by a car not stopping.
Downed street sign post that needs to be picked up.
