3rd and Madison, northwest corner, the Wait/Don't Wait signal is covered. I believe this was reported many months ago, but can't find it in the system. Not sure why it would take this long to get repaired. But if it's a part, shouldn't that be followed up on? Thanks.
The stop light to turn out onto W 3rd from Kimble constantly remains red so no one can turn left onto W 3RD from Kimble. You have to find the "right spot" to get the light to change. I live in the neighborhood and am constantly getting stuck at this light waiting for it to turn green. I often have to reverse my car and pull up again and again to try and find the right location to get the light to change and it never seems to be the same spot.
The eastbound left turn lane's green arrow is running every cycle, even though there's pretty much never any cars in that lane - it goes to a driveway. This causes westbound traffic on Adams/3rd to wait needlessly for their green signal. I am assuming that this left turn arrow operates from a trigger wire in the pavement.
The green left turn light coming out of the mall on the street between Fazoli's and BJ Brewhouse onto South College Mall Rd is inoperative. This causes the left turn lane to only get the yellow caution signal for a few seconds before the light goes red ( the main light issred if no one trips the signal to cycle from the straight ahead or right turn lane.) so then the left turners are sitting at the light until the right hand lane trips the (Main) signal to cycle to green.
Green Left turn signal bulb on IHOP side of street is burnt out.
Left turn green arrow to head south on college mall road from the westbound road into eastland plaza from college mall is dysfunctional
Green light for left turn signal arrow (when facing IHOP) does not work. Light cycles from red to yellow arrow (no green arrow turns on anymore).
Bloomington's traffic signal timing is, in general, inadequate. Traffic patterns in the city are highly variable, changing drastically as students arrive and leave with the university schedule and as new student housing is constructed. It would be wonderful if the city were to invest in a system which changes traffic signals in real time as a function of data collected from sensors at intersections. Surely there will be graduate students, postdocs, and faculty in the Luddy School eager to help out with a cool "smart city" project...
hillside is a much busier street than henderson. during peak traffic a dozen or more cars traveling east or west on hillside will be stopped at this light. idling. waiting for a car or two traveling north or south on henderson to pass. can the timing of this light be adjusted to reflect the actual flow of traffic through this intersection
The traffic lights are out.
