I am requesting that a speed bump and a flashing speed indicator be installed in a location along W Woodlawn Ave, somewhere between S Weatherstone Ln and E Wilson St. The speed limit on S Woodlawn Ave is 25 MPH, but the average vehicle's speed in front of my approximate address is closer to 45 MPH, with many vehicles regularly reaching speeds over 60 MPH and even 80 MPH at least daily. The reason why the speed limit is 25 MPH on S Woodlawn Ave is because of its proximity to Indiana University foot and bike commuters, Bryan Park, the Bryan Park Pool, a bus stop, and Union Elementary School. In addition to these elements, S Woodlawn Ave is also hilly which contributes to dangers associated with limited lines of sight between vehicles and pedestrians. Being a thoroughfare between Hillside Ave and streets north of it, traffic naturally flows faster than 25 MPH especially with the only stop sign between 1st St and Hillside Ave being at Sheridan Ave. Drivers frequently “floor” their vehicles through S Woodlawn Ave, and the police speed enforcement seems to never pull anyone over for speeding. For the above reasons, the current traffic pattern on S Woodlawn Ave is incompatible with its intended use. Installing a speed bump and a flashing speed indicator (for both northbound and southbound traffic) will hopefully greatly reduce thoroughfare excessive speeds. I am worried that this is a formula for someone to get hurt and it is only a matter of time unless the City does something about this. Please at least conduct a traffic study. Thank you for receiving my note, and I will be following up on this.

Last spring, I reported this signage to you. And you closed my report in May saying you had sent a and out of compliance notice or something like that from the legal department. But it's been over 3 months and it's still there. What gives?

This resistance has 10 total vehicles nearly every night on their property. They have a 2 car garage that they do not utilize it correctly. 2 cars in the driveway at night, 5-6 parked on the side of road in front of the residence. 3 cars parked in the back of the residence, along with a boat. This particular residence is on a very busy corner in the Cedar Chase neighborhood and their vehicles block view of any traffic. They are going against several regulations in the Cedar Chase neighborhood. If this isn’t resolved soon, it’s very likely a wreck may occur.
