The Bloomington traffic database reports 5 multivehicle accidents at North and Henderson in 2018 and 2019, all of them shortly before the 8AM start of class or after the 3PM end of class at BHSS. None were reported for 2020 when BHSS was online for most of the year. NO accidents are reported on the neighboring intersections of Henderson and E Miller, or Henderson and E South Rd, both of which have stop signs. To anyone who drives there, this is a much more dangerous intersection than the majority of intersections where 4-way stop signs have been installed. Indeed when one first uses the intersection one expects 4-way stop signs based on the usual Bloomington pattern for roads with prominent crosswalks, which makes the absence even more dangerous. Please fix this before my daughters start driving to high school next year. I'd prefer they walk but that intersection is even more dangerous for pedestrians.

The intersection of Henderson St and North Dr lacks a stop sign. It is the main exit for BHSS and is extremely dangerous. Cars are moving quite fast on Henderson, there are high school students crossing there, and there the high school is full of new drivers. As an experienced driver I can say it is the most dangerous intersection I have regularly gone through. And in front of a high school! Bloomington is full of 4 way stop signs everywhere. Why this strange exception where one is really, really needed?

This intersection has unclear right of way and needs a stop sign. We have almost been hit several times here.

The markings on Atwater do not make it clear AT ALL where cars can/should park and where there is a turning lane. While some parking spots are marked with signage, the lines on the street seem to indicate that it's a turn lane. Today (1/24) at approximately 2:15PM there were cars parked in some areas that seem to be marked parking spots, but cars were also parked well past that area, including the one marked with a circle that was parked all the way at the corner. This area desperately needs clearer signage and road markings. The signs don't make it clear where parking stops, the street markings seem to indicate that the turn lane starts at an area that has parking, and the curb markings indicate that you could park up to the corner.

When stopped eastbound, the "do not enter" sign to your left hides the stop sign on southbound Dunn St; drives do not know that Dunn St also has a stop. It would be useful to have the small "All Ways" sign under the Stop sign on 6th.

The "Do Not Enter" signs facing West 6th Street on Pine are very faded - time to replace them?

Where East Canada road narrows and comes to an end, its too tight to have cars parked on both sides of the road. It is also dangerous as many times people coming from South Heirloom Drive do not stop when they get to E Canada Drive and you cannot see them due to cars being parked there. Who maintains this road and who can we contact about putting no parking signs up?

There are 2 street signs labeled "East Holland Drive" off of South Walnut Street Pike. Neither sign indicates the range of house numbers on their respective sides of S Walnut St Pike. Residents have observed emergency vehicles turning one direction only to see them coming back and crossing to the other E Holland Drive after a few minutes.

The traffic lights at the intersection of E. 2nd St and S High St appear to be on a timer 24 hours a day. This includes the left turn arrow for cars coming from the north; it always comes on whether there is a car there or not. For those of us who regularly drive through this intersection early in the morning (5:00 am and 7:00 am), it is an unnecessary waste of time and fuel to wait through the full rotation of the lights when there not be even a single other car the entire time. Can the traffic lights at this intersection be switched to sensors for a designated time at night until 7:00 am? Or, can they be set to flash red so it is essentially a 4-way stop?

The stop sign at the intersection of W Fleming Pl and West Lawson Rd (Sample Road exit) is dangerous. The stop sign sits behind a treeline and you can’t see past the trees to see if a car is coming on the right side. You have to edge your car into the middle of the intersection before you have a clear line of sight. The trees might need removed or that intersection reworked. Thank you!
