Street & Traffic Signs

Washington & Allen, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
9/3/2021

Can the city consider installing “cross-traffic does not stop” signs below the stop signs on Allen Street at its intersections with Washington and Lincoln Streets? Cyclists may be lulled into a false sense of security as they ride on Allen Street, a marked bicycle boulevard, especially if they have just come off the B-Line trail where they are conditioned to cars yielding to them at intersections. As such, they might not be watching diligently for cross-vehicular traffic (or will assume that vehicles are going to stop for them) on Washington and Lincoln Streets, which does not have to stop at their respective Allen Street intersections. By installing “cross-traffic does not stop” signs (both eastbound and westbound) on Allen Street, safety can be improved by giving cyclists another warning that they had better heed the stop signs.

Blocked Sidewalk

2102 E Wimbleton LN

Case Date:
9/7/2021

So we're 15 weeks into our driveways being a mess of gravel and mud. And we have been patient about this, hoping that Milestone will give us what we had before. And yet most of these driveways are garbage.. Ok, but we are still without a driveway, without reasonable access to the street (while paying all those taxes) and still dealing with the sloth of Milestone. Congratulations, Mr Hamilton (Bank Lobbyist), you have created a new republican in Bloomington. You suck.

Biking & Walking

Case Date:

See case 177221 https://bloomington.in.gov/crm/tickets/view?ticket_id=177221 The resolution here is disappointing. Cyclists need to be able to clear intersections before lights turn red. For reference, my bike weights in at about 30 pounds and is not lightweight.

Biking & Walking

Case Date:

Please finish the new bike path on S High street quickly. The unfinished section between Wimbleton and Meadowbluff has been a hassle, but its now getting dangerous as children and families have to walk on high street to get around construction. This needs to be resolved immediately.

Blocked Sidewalk

High St and Wimbleton Ln (Inbound-Northbound), Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
9/9/2021

Hello! The path for students to walk to/from school is not safe. The crossguard cannot help students cross at High and Greenbriar AND navigate around the closed sidewalk. The gravel/dirt path needs to be completed ASAP so students, parents, staff, and other residents can walk safely. My assumption is that path cannot be complete until the electrical lines in front of 2102 High Street are relocated. If this is the case, please let me know who I can contact about relocating the electrical lines so the path can be paved and this project can be wrapped up. We were told the path would be complete by the start of the school year and are becoming increasingly frustrated with the unsafe environment.

Street & Traffic Signs

E Maxwell Ln & S Jordan Ave, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:
9/13/2021

Maxwell betw approximately S. Highland and S. Sheridan included a very steep hill. When driving in either direction, the steepness of this hill creates poor visibility, and so very limited opportunity to avoid oncoming traffic. Please consider a center line for this area.

Biking & Walking

Case Date:
9/14/2021

It is very hard right now to cross from bikes or walking across east third. The crossing at third and Smith is not well marked and has no crossing signal. We bike on Longview Greenway but are feeling concerned with the car focused development just approved by planning commission. We need safe biking and walking and reasonable vehicular congestion. Please help and don't punt this off as a state issue after you narrowed east third while massively increasing density. Those are fine but do so in a way that keeps neighborhood safe and still connected to town.

City Performance

Case Date:
9/17/2021

Left turns are increasingly dangerous at 3rd and Smith and 10th and Smith. We are very concerned with these particularly with new proposed east side development. Please let us know how traffic and particularly traffic safety concerns will be addressed with these city approved projects. The state may do roads but the city needs to coordinate and plan appropriately. Will there be a light on Morningside and 3rd with the new entrance across the way? That would help with bike and pedestrian crossing. A crosswalk and left turn lane on third and Smith? A left turn on Smith and 10th? These are real needs. And why does Ron Smith refuse emails and other messages from his constituents and neighbors? He persistently ignores anything controversial.

Biking & Walking

Bloomington, IN 47405, USA

Case Date:
9/20/2021

This issue concerns the new double bike lane on 7th Street (especially near the 2-way intersection of Kirkwood Avenue and Dunn Meadow). Since this bike lane is so new and it is big enough for two lanes of bike traffic, I have repeatedly seen cars mistakenly turning down the bike lane. As you can imagine, this is extremely dangerous to both drivers and cyclists. Last week there was a bike sign at the intersection which cut down on driver confusion. However, as of this morning, the sign is not there and I saw yet another driver make this mistake and turn down the bike lanes. I would suggest that the bike sign be permanently installed to help prevent this problem in the future. I greatly appreciate your help! I've seen this mistake happen at least half a dozen time since IU classes started.
