I’m at Johnny Junction with a flat tire in the pouring rain from a pot at the intersection of walnut and Winslow. Are you going to pay for the tire?

first, thank you for putting stop signs back on 7th street. there are a number of speed bumps,speed humps around the city. i have only found one marked. maybe, perhaps signs could placed to give warning to motorist approaching the bumps, humps. thank you.
There are no signs on Coolidge or Brown streets by the Broadview Learning Center and Bloomington Graduation School building indicating it is a school or reducing speed limits. BGS is an alternative high school in MCCSC, but the students are entitled to the same protections as any traditional high school. Please remedy this inequity.
East 7th is unique in that it is two parallel roads each with its own signage. Stop signs have been installed, removed and reinstalled at various intersections. No where else is there traffic going the opposite direction (west) on both sides of an eastbound vehicular lane. Nor is there another pair of lanes going east with a westbound lane in between them anywhere else in town. The stop signs become more critical due to the additional complexity. Going east the vehicular lanes cannot see their signs. The bike next to me yesterday blew thru every sign while pointing at drivers at the intersections. When the motorized bike, electric scooter etc. keeps going as he did the car driver will instinctively assume the same especially if there isn't a sign visible until the last minute. Delivery trucks, city maintenance vehicles, and trash bins blocking one or the other at times create confusion. Remove the trees and, if a barrier is deemed necessary, plant low bushes.
Please consider a stop sign on Southdowns and circle drive. People come up westbound on southdowns heading around the corner very fast. We have many walkers and children and it is a blind curve.
Cars and buses regularly speed on this street, often exceeding 35 miles per hour. Due to their speed, they are unable to stop at the stop signs—including city buses. I am requesting that a speed limit sign be installed, ideally one that displays drivers’ actual speed (similar to those used in school zones). Our street and its connection to First Street have effectively become an unofficial bypass for east–west and west–east traffic, including city buses. This is a residentially zoned area with pedestrians, cyclists, children, pets, and wildlife. The sidewalks are narrow, and vehicles—especially buses—traveling at high speeds pose a serious risk. I have personally witnessed both buses and cars run stop signs, even when pedestrians, families with baby carriages, and cyclists are present. The cars/buses still don't stop and merely drive around the "obstacles." At a minimum, a visible speed limit sign should be installed—preferably one that tracks and displays speeds.
We've been waiting almost 10 years for you to replace the "Claybridge Dr." street sign on the SW corner of Claybridge Dr. and Canada Dr. The street post has been empty for ages.
Street sign is missing at Second & Hunter Ave. Used to be on top of stop sign that’s still there.
The sign saying "Clark St." at the northeast corner of East Third and Clark has a right-angle bend in the center of it, so it's impossible to read the name of the street.
Not sure if this is the right category, but North Laverne Dr is a block long street in Matlock Heights and one road sign has it “Laverne” and one without the ending ‘e’ as “Lavern”. Not a huge deal, but now w GPS I’m finding some folks can’t see the street spelled one way or the other, depending on which mapping service they use. I believe it’s supposed to be “Laverne” and it would be great to have the road signs match and update GPS. Thanks!
