This is a sightline/sign issue, I am Bob Loviscek and I reside at 605 N Smith Road. The picture that is attached is from the end of my driveway looking South. The address of this issue is 601 N Smith Road. The treeline on this property is creating a significant safety issue by not being able to see northbound traffic coming on Smith Road. The trees also have overgrown to the point they cover the Bridge Height sign. I have emailed the offices of HAND and Planning and Transportation to help correct this problem and it still has not been taken care of. Any assistance would be appreciated before someone is hit coming out of my driveway. I can be contacted at 812 219 4749.

Intersection of 2nd and Henderson has a stop sign on all 4 corners. All but one of them face the lane of traffic which is supposed stop. The one circled in blue (NW corner) on the photo seems unnecessary. For traffic going east on 2nd, there is the sign on the SW corner. For traffic heading west on 2nd, there is a sign on the NE corner. A friend pointed that out, and we are both curious: Why is there a redundant sign? Thanks!

obscured stop sign at E. University and S. Jordan. I witnessed a large vehicle blow through this stop sign. Cross traffic does not stop....very dangerous! Stopsign is at westbound E. University

It would be helpful to have a west-pointing "One Way" sign installed on the east side of the Lincoln/Cottage Grove intersection and maybe even a "Do Not Enter" sign to alert drivers intending to turn right that they are about to encounter one-way traffic headed west. Currently, there is a west-pointing "One Way" sign on the NW corner of the intersection, but (ironically) view of it is mostly blocked by a "Do Not Enter" sign on the SW corner of the same intersection. Drivers on Lincoln who approach this intersection and who are unfamiliar with the street directions in this neighborhood could (do) easily turn right and head east against the traffic direction, formally in commission of a moving violation but it seems unfair to ticket them when the street layout is not well-communicated to the drivers. Note: there might have been a sign in this location in the past, but there have been some ADA-sidewalk projects in the area recently that necessitated temporary removal of signs, and any signs laying about could then have been picked up by a member of one of the local fraternities, notorious for sign theft in the neighborhood.

Relevant to ticket #169078, does this mean the first sign ("City of Bloomington Authorized Parking Only") is to be ignored entirely? If so, what purpose does it serve? I find this signage confusing and I know I'm not alone.

per ticket #169110 I'm told this lot is publicly available after 5 on weekdays and per ticket #169078 I'm told the public can also park here on weekends. Why is this not indicated in the parking restriction signs?

Follow up to ticket #169125 These signs read as 'City of Bloomington Authorized Parking Only' with no day or time qualifications (so 24/7) and Mill parking permits may be used M-F 8-5. There is absolutely no indication that there is a time when 'City of Bloomington Authorized Parking' is not in force. Yet I'm told this lot is publicly available on nights and weekends (when, apparently, 'City of Bloomington Authorized Parking Only' isn't in effect, but it's unclear how anyone is supposed to know this since no hours are posted for that prohibition).

People are parking on the south side of Cottage Grove just west of Lincoln, which normally is ok but they are parking *all the way to the corner* of Lincoln, making it difficult to turn left onto Cottage Grove from Lincoln. But they really can't be blamed because the yellow curb there was ripped up over the summer when they put in the ADA-compliant plates and then didn't finish the job. Could the curbs indicating no-parking sections in this area be repainted yellow?
