SR45 at Airport Road: recently the light for traffic on 45 has a very short green signal (5-6 cars' worth). I don't know if it's constantly like that or triggered when there are cars approaching from Airport. I noticed it a couple of weeks ago and people in local Facebook groups are commenting about it. It's been 5:15 pm when I'm there and sometimes traffic gets very backed up on 45.

We are writing to you again because of two more accidents at this same corner (14th Street and Walnut Street). Danna Workman was assigned to this on October 13, 2018, then she assigned it to Adam Wason, who then assigned it to Terri Porter; however, we have been reporting this problem corner to the City for many years. On February 5, 2018 we heard from Andrew Cibor, Transportation and Traffic Engineer, who encouraged us to submit comments via a mapping tool. We submitted our comments on February 6, 2018, but as of yet have heard nothing.
On December 20, 2018 we wrote to you asking for a few traffic signs from 2nd Street to 17th Street on the Walnut corridor, but nothing has been done, and we have not received a response.
One of the last accidents hit our landscaped flower bed and took out our irrigation as well as our treated landscape wood to hold in the mulch and flowers. We had to replace the landscape wood, but will have to wait until Spring to replace the irrigation system there.
The other recent accident (February 16, 2019) took out another irrigation head, but worst yet, it took down the very large City street light with a light attached to it for our parking lot, which we pay Duke Energy for every month.
You have told us in years past that you are not seeing that many accidents reported to the City; however, if only one car is involved or even two, many times it goes unreported, and they fix their cars themselves, but our damage is left for us to repair.
Last year, you did install white posts on the west side of Walnut along with pedestrian lines on the street. However, that has done nothing to slow the traffic or stop accidents. I saw two young people on scooters yesterday trying to cross at that corner, and I was concerned for their safety, as the cars were speeding by without stopping for the pedestrians.
It was reported in the newspaper this morning that Mayor Hamilton is spending quite a lot of money to assess the trees in Bloomington. And, while that maybe needed, I feel the safety of the residents of Bloomington and their guests is needed more.
Please respond to us as soon as possible.
Kindest Regards,
Kathy Taylor

My son is a bicycle commuter to North HS. We were thrilled last week that the bypass bike lanes were cleared. However, this morning the path was completely covered. He was disappointed and late for school, of course. We'll use an alternate route tomorrow, but wanted to alert the city to the fact that it appears INDOT tossed the snow onto the path.

Our house backs up to Rollingbrook Park and there is a city wood fence surrounding the park. Over the years several sections have been replaced by the city. I’ve lived here 24 years and in that time our section has never been replaced. Well it’s dry rotted and falling over.
The other day a child wandered over to our house from the park. I did not see a parent. I called out to see if there was someone with him. He attempted to climb over the dry rotted fence and fell over. Siddenly the non existent parent comes running over screaming she is going to sue me- over my broken fence. I informed her it was a city fence not mine. I want this taken care of so I don’t have to deal w this, and so the city doesn’t end up getting sued.
