It would be easier and safer to cross the 17th street and Kinser Pike if the traffic light had a WALK SIGN for pedestrians. I think this is important because there are many college students living around this area, and they have to take the bus 6 to go to the campus. Thank you.
New traffic light installed on second street at twin lakes. Specifically in the morning during rush hour (7:00-8:00), traffic that is heading east on second street backs up because of it. Traffic can be backed up all the way to the other traffic light at Basswood Dr. The light changes quickly to allow 1 vehicle to come out of Millenium Apts but doesn't change back quickly to allow the traffic to flow on second street.
I work for IU Campus Bus Service. Saturday, we were driving a special service that necessitated that we use the new portion of Woodlawn Avenue. (Once the railroad crossing is complete, buses will go up and down Woodlawn Avenue from the Stadium to Campus and back about 70 times a day during the week.) I noticed that a vehicle was parked on Woodlawn just north of 14th St. on the east side of the street blocking the bike lane, but mostly out of the lane of car traffic. I also noticed there are no "No Parking" signs on this new stretch of Woodlawn. Can those be added to prevent people from parking here? Thank you.
Traffic southbound on Jordan is always held up by people waiting for the left turn to go east on Atwater. Countless times I've seen that the light has already cycled to yellow by the time northbound traffic has cleared, and as a result cars have backed up all the way to third st. If the switching equipment allows jordan southbound to get green BEFORE jordan northbound, it will improve intersection throughput tremendously.
To Whom it May Concern, I am an IU Student living in Jackson Heights. I choose to take the bus 2-3 times a day to get to my classes, in an effort to be environmentally conscious. The nearest bus stop is on 17th street past the gas station. There isn't any crosswalk/crosswalk lights on any side of the corner I have indicated. This puts myself, as well as any other pedestrian, at risk of being seriously injured. I've been in Bloomington since August and have, thankfully, avoided getting into any incident. However, I have just heard from my roommate, that she almost got hit by a car, as the driver wasn't paying attention and it's tricky for a pedestrian to decide when to cross when there aren't any indications to do so. I am really hoping a solution can be reached. I'd also appreciate any feedback on any way I can assist to help avoid a tragic situation. Thank you for your time, Yasmine El-Gohary
Traffic lights on main entry and exit roadways in Bloomington are not synchronized causing traffic delays. Hwy 46 past hospital, 3rd st & hwy 48 are in need of traffic study to determine best method to increase flow of traffic in and out of town during peak travel hours.
A couple cones would be nice at the first speed hump as you're heading eastbound on Miller. All the other new speed humps have two to five cones, but the first one you hit from the west (in front of the City of Bloomington Utilities offices) has no cones so there's no warning.
The intersection has a stop sign on Cottage Grove avenue but not on Indiana Avenue stop signs need installed on Indiana Avenue before other crash happened Thanks
I live in the apartment building on the corner of 2nd and High street. The entrance to its parking lot is from High street, very close to the corner. Any time there's a car stopped at the light the entrance is blocked, and the light is delayed for those cars, so unless you are coming in from the south, you have to wait for those cars to go, blocking traffic behind you, or go around the block. Could it be possible to paint the sign in front of the parking lot entrance that cars should not stop there for the light, but a little further from the entrance, and should not block the entrance to the lot? Thank you for consideration!
There are 4 grade schoolers and a toddler living at 1402 W 8th. Several residents in Waterman push strollers. A blind man and his service dog walk to/from his home on West 8th. Drivers occasionally reach 50 mph on 8th street. A "slow children" sign might slow them down.
