The pedestrian light at 10th and Fee Lane that allows people to walk across at Fee Lane is not working. Stood there for 3 turns watching cars go by, when I could normally cross the street. Had to run across on a red when there were no cars around. I can see a lot of pedestrians/students crossing illegally at this busy intersection today and messing up the flow of traffic.
The pedestrian blinking light for the trail on Country Club Drive between Walnut and Rogers is stuck on. I went through it twice between 7:45pm and 8:15pm on Sunday 10/21, and it was still on.
Hello. Is the traffic signal on 3rd, just east of the IN-37/I-69 ramps, still awaiting final synchronization as the I-69 construction project wraps up? I find myself sitting on 3rd waiting for that light all the time, when there is no cross traffic at all coming from Franklin or Wynnedale. Also the left turn lights on 3rd will often cycle even when there are no cars waiting to turn. Assuming that at least some of these signal cycles are triggered by sensors, I'm guessing the sensors, and/or the cycle times, need some work.
Street Sign missing at Kenwood Drive and Rogers Street intersection is missing. Street sign at Clark Street and E. 3rd Street intersection is heavily damaged and bent.
The traffic light does not trigger for cars east bound on Rockport approaching Rogers Street. The timing is way off, even when there is no cross traffic on Rogers it can take several minutes before it changes.
There's something else going on in the neighborhood. The Indiana RR trestle on Adams Street is hit about twice a week. A RR truck took a look at it a few days ago. Rebar is exposed again, they will have to fix it. A neighbor says the trestle is hit about twice a week. I saw a semi with a 40-foot trailer turn around at 6th Street and Adams. Closing Vernal Pike is squeezing traffic, and maps don't help. How about a "No Trucks" and "Low clearance ahead" signs at 5th and Adams?
Third Street between Woodlawn and Indiana intersection is a problem. It narrows to one lane near Indiana, but the traffic at the light at Woodlawn does not know it will narrow. This results in traffic tie ups and unsafe manouvering to get a better spot in line. Please move the warnings and signs about the single lane closer to the traffic light at Woodlawn, if they can see the problem earlier it will be safer. Someone tried to cut ahead by using the bike lane and sidewalk today.
The one lane road sign really needs to be placed further back on 3rd street. I was just out in front of Rawles Hall and Swain east/west and was almost hit by a car that was trying to go around 2 other cars!!! He did go up on the curb and barely missed a tree that i was standing by. If he had hit that tree his car and the tree would have fell on to me and my friend. There was also an accident earlier this week due to people not knowing they need to go into one lane. Please move the sign or add another sign at the top f the hill so when drivers are at the light at 3rd & Woodlawn they know to start getting over. Thank you! ~Chawnn
With students returning, I've noticed an uptick in traffic speeding down North Washington between 12th and 10th street. I feel like the problem is only going to increase as the new apartment building at 714 N Walnut is completed. With several children that play in the neighborhood, I'm concerned with their safety. Can traffic calming measures be investigated for this area?
I drive for Uber/Lyft in Bloomington. The number of stop signs that I have noticed that are blocked or partially blocked by foliage is approximately one in very ten. I stop at roughly 500 of these signs per 9 hour shift ant it is dangerous. Also the smaller alleys have so much over growth that they scratch the side of the vehicles. Does Bloomington not have a forestry division with a chainsaw or two to fix both these hazards.
