All over town: 'Kids for Sale 22-24 September' signs (or Sale for Kids, something like that), for instance at the NW corner of the intersection of Buick Cadillac Blvd and College Mall Rd.
The new median installed seems like an addition to try to help pedestrians make a safe transition across the street. I think that’s a great step as I often have worried about students at dismissal from south trying to safely make their way across that intersection to the bus stop. However as it currently is, it is not safe for drivers & maybe not even pedestrians. I watched 2 cars drive right over it just after dark, one definitely popped a tire. When I passed it another time I noticed multiple tire marks over the median. There does not seem to be clear enough markings on the median to warn drivers that they need to swerve to the side to avoid it. This is certainly true at night, yet I believe may be true during the daytime too as there are no signs or markings to show that the driver must shift to the right around the median or slow down in any way. Perhaps this measure taken to try to improve safety is actually more dangerous to all. A pedestrian may have a false sense of safety standing on an unmarked median that is not early visible or marked for cars to see. Can it be made into an official crosswalk with proper signage and clear expectations for drivers to slow, be aware and stop for pedestrians? Please take steps to make this safer for drivers and pedestrians. If school ever resumes this seems even more dangerous than it was before the addition of this median. Thank you!
Trees, planted between the street and sidewalk, are overgrown into the street blocking line of sight and scrapping against vehicles as they drive by.
The speed limit between I-69 and the first traffic circle to the east on Tapp road has been 30MPH since I've lived here. There has been road construction on this road for 10 yrs. Finally it appears that improvements are over. I am asking that the speed limit be increased to 40 mph. There is nothing on that road warranting such a low speed limit and it only serves to be a speed trap. I literally have to use my brakes or 2nd gear to drive slow enough on the hills to keep it at 30 mph. The speed limit on North Walnut north of 17th st is 40mph and there are businesses on that road. Please review this and hopefully end the speed trap and make driving more enjoyable. Thanks
The sidewalk contruction on E Winslow Rd has been going on since winter. The project has more says with no one working on it than working on it. today I saw only 4 men on the whole project and none of them were doing any work at 11 AM. Lots of road projects in Bloomington are started and then left abandoned for months. As a resident I don't like this. If they start something they ought to work on it till finished then move on. Im frustrated with the disruption that has been going on for 7 months for a very small project.
The line of sight problem at W Dodds and S Fairview is not resolved and should not be closed. Ticket 173486 Plants till lean out into the roadway blocking LOS. Whatever the resident may have done has not helped. Please make the intersection safer and truly resolve the situation.
Signs placed in the ROW at the Gentry Honors entry at Smith Rd. and Bennington Blvd. Other signs also placed at the intersection of HWY 446 and Bill Mallory Blvd in the tree plot and the shelter house near the pool at Gentry Honors.
New Music Lessons sign in the grass right next to the road in front of Big Red Liquor on College Mall Rd. I would think that it is not on Big Liquor property.
Flag at exit of regents court onto e. Moore's. It's just tied to a hedge.
Plants in the way of the line of sight at the SW corner of S Fairview and W Dodds. A hazard. Please rectify ASAP
