Traffic Related Complaints

I live on the Waterman section of W. 8th Street. A few years ago, before the city repaved our road, there were yellow center lines and also marked roadside parking spaces. When will the city repaint those lines? It has been a few years already. We have an issue of people speeding on our road, which they do by driving down the center of it regardless of oncoming traffic, pedestrians, and bicyclists. I think the speeding was less of an issue back when the road lines were painted because those lines prevented people from driving down the middle of the road like they do now. I think repainting the center lines and the parking spot lines, we could actually solve the speeding problem.

I travel west on Moore's Pike between 8:30am and 9:00am every weekday morning. In the past few weeks, traffic is often backed up from High St. nearly to the Roundabout on Moore's Pike. When this occurs, it takes 3-4 cycles of the High St. & Moore's Pike/Hillside light to get through the light. If there is a way to increase west bound traffic flow through that intersection and allow side street traffic to enter the Moore's Pike roadway, during that time period, it would be a good thing.
Potholes, Other Street Repair

There are an increasing number of potholes between College/Walnut west on 46 to Ellettsville that need to be repaired before winter sets in. I know this is a state highway but to Bloomington/Ellettsville it is almost a country road. Also, there is a 50mpg sign down and damaged just west of where Monroe St intersects 46 that needs replacement/repair. Also, the retaining wall on the east bound exit of 37 to east bound 46 is covered with graffiti. Thank you for doing what you can.

Summerwood Court Cul-de-sac off Azalea. Asphalt has started crumbling and is breaking up. This circle is a major "turnaround"
for vehicles and gets a lot of traffic, which exacerbates the problem. If the City of Bloomington could do some repairs, it might offset the need for a major repair in the spring.

THANK YOU Dana Workman! I sent in a UReport this week about our crumbling cul-de-sac. Report was assigned to Dana. The cul-de-sac has already had lots of fresh asphalt put down to help keep it from further deterioration. Again, Thank you, Dana.

Sidewalk Requests
909 S Lincoln ST
- Case Date:
- 10/16/2016
The sidewalk in front of our house has many cracks. Some of the places it is cracked are raised up a few inches which can cause tripping. In addition, we have pipes that run under our sidewalk and out to the street to connect to the main sewer. The clay pipe that runs under the sidewalk has roots growing into it. In order to replace the pipe we need to take out the sidewalk. We are hoping that since the sidewalk needs replacing anyway, the city could let us know when the sidewalk will be torn up and replaced so we can have our plumber ready to replace the pipe while the sidewalk is up. Thank you for staying in communication with us about when the sidewalk will be replaced with a safer one.

West Bloomfield Road

There are at least 5 street lights out on West 2nd Street between Twin Lakes and Hwy. 37 ramp and at least two street lights out on Basswood Drive. These light skin have been out for over a month. A complaint was filed 3 weeks ago with Duke Energy with no repair. There are school bus pick-ups and city bus pick-ups in this area and people are waiting in the dark. The city spent lo5/ of money putting in a pathway in this area and a large portion is in the dark. Perhaps you can get Duke Energy to fix thes lights.
