Traffic Related Complaints
Smith Rd and 3rd St, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA
- Case Date:
- 7/28/2021
I live off of Smith Rd and travel the road multiple times a day. I am almost in an accident every time I’m at this intersection. Vehicles that are crossing Smith Rd are constantly going around vehicles trying to turn from Smith Rd onto 3rd St, as if there is a turn lane. I have spent an entire green light attempting to turn onto 3rd St, unable to do so because of this issue. Traffic is frequently backed up. If you do not pull into the intersection while trying to turn onto 3rd St, vehicles crossing Smith Rd display angry gestures and honking because they cannot cross while you are unable to turn. Turn lanes and turn arrows need to be implemented here.
Traffic Related Complaints
Smith Rd, Between E Third and Moore's Pike
- Case Date:
- 7/28/2021
Smith Rd often has folks speeding between E Third and Moore's Pike. There are no stop signs and no traffic monitoring... and too many folks just whiz along.
It can be dangerous checking the mailbox or crossing the road and animals crossing the road are in peril.
Need traffic monitoring and better placement of speed limit signage (the sign near the Lutheran Church is not nicely visible/not effectively placed....and it is the only one). The intersection at Smith and 3rd is horrendous. It is very difficult making a left from Smith to E 3rd and cars behind grow impatient. Thank you.

Difficult to see cars traveling south on S Smith Road when I’m on the west side of Fenbrook, wanting to go straight across into Gentry South.
Please cut down the weeds. Thank you!

My guess is you are aware that: (1) Driving west on 17th there is a small no left turn sign. (2) Drivers (to be kind) apparently aren't seeing the sign (surely they aren't ignoring it). Anyway, it is causing some big backups at times. I was there twice today and both times someone waited to turn left onto College. Not sure it is solveable, but hopefully there is something.

At the Hertz rental they have not mowed this year. It won’t be long and you won’t be able to see the cars for the grass.
