When will I finally no longer need to step into someone 's yard or into busy Atwater Street because of very low-hanging branches of a tree in the yard of the Swain/Atwater corner house?

What is wrong with the City transportation people! We already have the worst traffic in Bloomington. Absolutely DO NOT eliminate the one ways of Atwater college etc. to create slow and jammed skinny streets without any alternatives. Biking is great and so is walking but we all can't afford to live 200 feet from work and school and some of us must get across town. Neighborhoods are great but Bloomington can't be one giant one with zero arterials. That is crazy. We need several large and frankly expanded arteriajs to get across town in both directions. And then if you want to have slow and multi use webbing that is great. But we still need major trafficways. Stop killing or economy and time by creating logjams. Please please keep two lane roads. Also with the new construction for students miles from campus in the East there better be a plan to keep them from jamming things up. We need a healthy third or other east/west large and speedy road all the way through town. The same with North south options. Stop catering to white liberal privilege of folks with enough money and time to buy a downtown historic home and take their electric bike to work. That isn't the reality of working people.

Sidewalk at 3rd and Patterson intersection (near Patterson Pointe development) is blocked and unusable by pedestrians. There is no cautionary warning or protection for unwitting pedestrians much less for the wheelchair or blind users of this public sidewalk.

Not nearly as dangerous if you are not visually impaired but I first encountered this last Wednesday. The other was there on Tuesday if not before.

Blocked sidewalk. Ok it’s been a week since I had to hop off my bike going west on 3rd across from the Red Cross. I realize it’s not a priority for them. They are focused on the hideous mixed use apartment construction but this is a public walkway.

Good afternoon. I live at 415 W. Graham Drive on the south side of Bloomington. I am writing in hopes of having a two- way stop become a four-way stop at the cross roads of Graham and Madison streets (and possible speed bumps put in). I have noticed (a lot) of drivers who turn on to Graham accelerate to a high speed because the west/ east of Graham does not have to stop at the intersection where Madison crosses (north to south). I cannot tell you how many times I have heard breaks squeal because the driver at the stop sign does not realize that cross traffic does not stop. Graham has a very high volume of foot traffic whether it be pedestrians walking to the bline, or their pets, or children walking home from the school bus. This makes for a very dangerous situation. I realize this is not a residential neighborhood- it's more of a city street, but I am concerned for everyone's well being and I believe making that a four-way stop would aide in motorists to slow down and be more aware of their surroundings. Thank you, Amanda

The sidewalk just north of 411 North Lincoln is becoming overrun with vegetation and difficult to pass.

On July 20, 2018 I sent a request to this department regarding an accessibility / safety issue related to a sidewalk and crosswalk (Case #165230). It was opened by Melissa O'Neil on July 20, 2018, but I was never notified of any consideration taken. Might it be possible to have a response provided from someone in the department?

I was wondering if there could be signage added on W. 3rd Street to encourage people to use the "zipper" merge when traveling westbound towards HWY 37 during this construction? When I try to travel home each day, traffic is backed up from the highway to Liberty Drive, with all cars in the right lane, due to signs warning of the left lane being closed ahead (at the intersection of Fairfield Dr. and Highway 37). People are trying to be courteous, but they are actually slowing down traffic by doing this. I have seen a sign before that said "Use both lanes during backup" - could that be a possibility? I live on Fairfield Dr., so everyday is tough and people seem to be making poorer choices each day because of the traffic. Thank you for your time.

I'm concerned that with the closure of Walnut St. Pike/Rhorer Rd., there will be a lot of traffic diverging through the Sherwood Oaks neighborhood, particularly on Allendale. We already have a lot of problems with individuals speeding down that street, and this will only make it worse. Is there any way that there can be the temporary speed bumps installed like there is through the Broadview & Summit areas right now? We would greatly appreciate it!!
