There is no yellow curb north of the parking garage at the new Urban Station apartments on Washington, meaning that cars can park right up to the entrance. This makes the field of vision for vehicles leaving the garage very poor. Compounding this is the issue of cars briefly double parking alongside the car immediately north of the exit to pick up and drop off tenants.This is especially problematical because there is a bike lane right up against the parked cars. As I was typing this, I saw a car nearly hit one cyclist in the bike lane and two children riding on the sidewalk. I have also seen a few close calls between vehicles. The only thing preventing accidents at this point is the large moving vehicles parking in the bike lane, forcing bikes to move over to where they can be seen. A yellow curb to the north would greatly help expand visibility for drivers exiting the parking garage. Additionally, now that riding on the sidewalk is legal and I just saw two children nearly hit by a car exiting from the garage, I think it would be prudent to have a mirror installed so drivers can see the sidewalk before exiting--not sure if this would be a city issue or an issue with Urban Station itself. Being that these apartments have been occupied for only four days and I have witnessed one accident, three or four vehicular close calls, and two vehicle-bicycle close calls, I hope the city gives this problem area the attention it needs. As is, it is only a matter of time before a serious collision occurs.

Bus 555, on route 3E, almost ran into me at approximately 5:15 p.m. on Saturday, September 1, 2018. I was at the stop sign, leaving the parking lot as referenced above on the map. The bus took the left turn at an angle and did not stop. I put my car in reverse and the bus just missed my car by inches. My entire family was in the car with me. I have not seen bus driving this bad in quite some time. They need to be careful and take it slow. If they cannot make the turn, then let the other person turn so they have a wider angle. I'm not sure why a bus would be in a parking lot anyways--it's a poor place to put a bus stop if there is one. There's too much congestion in that parking lot especially.

Walk signal for pedestrians crossing aAtwater at Henderson is off and dangerous, restricting crossing when it should and encouraging crossing when it shouldn't. I've seen at least one close call. Please fix this! Thanks

Pot Holes are deep and take up both lanes all the way through white road. Some spots are becoming impassable.

There is a large pothole that formed around a storm water drain on S Walnut Street in front of Kroger Gas Station. I hit the hole last night. Not sure how much damage my car sustained. Will be taking it to a mechanic.

The attached photo shows the pedestrian signal at the corner of East 3rd Street and Woodscrest Drive in Bloomington. As you can see, northbound traffic on Woodscrest has a right-turn arrow at the same time that pedestrians crossing 3rd Street have a "walk" signal, which puts them directly in the path of the turning traffic. Surely this is not the way a properly designed pedestrian signal is supposed to work! Imagine the lawsuit when a motorist strikes a pedestrian in this crosswalk and it turns out they were both obeying their signals...

It's actually 411 E. University St. Today I found "ADHD" spray painted on the apron of my driveway. Several months ago (which I also reported online but heard nothing about) someone spray painted something in blue on my limestone retaining wall facing the sidewalk.
