Street light not working at 2905 N. Bankers Drive: Corner of Blue Ridge Drive and Bankers Drive
The left lane that used to go straight through on college avenue past the Marriott near 3rd street has now stopped and the city has placed these large curbs that jut out into the street. I have seen several cars run into them, slam on their breaks and close calls and accidents there. who is making these decisions to place medians and curbs that narrow the street access. the city of bloomington is becoming very difficult to access in a car. they have made it hard to see the roads at night. another area is the median they placed on 10th street near the bypass. I have seen people swerve to miss it and find the narrow road to access 10th going to campus. with all of the visiting parents and travelers that come to the city and campus, you would think the engineers would widen roads and make things more accessible instead of causing areas where accidents are more likely to happen. especially there on college avenue across from the convention center.
2 signs on N. Walnut St. just north of W. 15th St. on the west side of street are twisted and/or leaning. one sign is the one way sign and I couldn't see the face of the other sign needing repair.
R1-1 at the intersection of S. Henderson and Walnut St. Pike southbound on S. Henderson is does not meet MUTCD reflective guidelines and needs replaced.
stop ahead sign on N. Kinser Pike east of Prow Rd. is leaning badly.
R2-1 on east side of S. Weimer Rd. just north of W. Tapp Rd. is leaning way over.
Compact ice and snow builds up on the ped/bike underpass. It's extremely treacherous and NO ONE seems to even care enough to lay down some salt. The multi-use path up east 7th street along Park Doral apartments also sees little to no cleaning, but is supposed to be part of a vital pedestrian and bicycle artery. It might be cold, but we're still trying to use this without killing ourselves.
BTaccess driver reports that at 5th & Bryan the stop sign reads "all-way" however, the 4-way intersection only has 3 stop signs
