1000 N College AVE

N College Ave crosswalk next to CVS is just a standard crosswalk and I go down this street everyday home from work and it's very dangerous. I usually drive in the left lane because right lane has more potholes. I see pedestrians crossing this street and cars do not stop. I will stop in left lane for pedestrian but right lane does not see person crossing and has to slow down quickly. Would be nice if we can get a crosswalk that alerts drivers like the one on South Walnut Street. My fear is that someone will get struck by a car crossing this street. Today someone crossed I stopped for them and right lane car next to me almost hit them driving fast down this lane. I hope this can be taken into serious consideration. Thank you for your time and for your help with the city of Bloomington

Hello! I live in Cascades on the Northside of the city. There are no sidewalks in the neighborhood (which is fine!), but drivers in our neighborhood drive way to fast on our main road. I have three young children and it’s really concerning when we’re outside. I’d like to request to have speed bumps put in our the neighborhood to ensure the safety of those out walking, and for drivers too. Thank you!

People speed out of RCA Park (and this has happened after criminal activity as well), so can traffic calming devices such as speed bumps please be considered? There are deer in the area, plus lots of kids moving into Osage Place.

320 S Muller PKWY

The entry to Muller Parkway and the short distance to the first speed bump to the entrance of the Muller Village Apartments seems to create a challenge of going as fast as possible before the first speed bump. We have had cars speed by here so fast that their engine is revving and the car is a blur. Residents and visitors from the mobile home park attempting to pull out are put in a dangerous situation, end these folks are old retired folks. I am owner of Stewart Electric Supply across from the mobile home park, and we have customers backing out of our lot to get back onto Muller. This is very dangerous for them, and they have angry drivers that are blaming our customers and employees for slowing them down. Honking and angry drivers is not unusual. We would like to request a speed bump in front of our shop at 320 S. Muller Parkway in an effort to slow these drivers down.

There was a collision today between a car and a bus at the intersection of 11th and Diamond Streets. The car was unable to see around the large building at the southwest corner, and pulled out in front of a fast-moving bus. A similar thing happened several years ago between two passenger vehicles which resulted in a collision with the house on the southeast corner (see picture). With the new development at Moravec Way, this intersection is getting much more use over the past few years. I would appreciate if a traffic study could be conducted to determine if some kind of traffic calming, such as a speed hump, would be appropriate to install on the west side of this intersection.

The whole intersection is a disaster, but the particular problem I think should be addressed is the complete lack of lane markers as you approach 3rd street. The left and right lanes end as you approach the light, and there is literally nothing until the very end. Early on, one should be clearly marked straight and right turn / left turn only or Right turn only / Straight&left turn only. Lines should then continue to ensure clarity, and create accountability in the event of an accident. For example, if I'm in the right hand lane and intend to go straight, but the person in the left hand lane also intends to go straight, who has the right of way? Based on the current setup, there seems to be no wrong or right answer. I would appreciate someone looking into this.
Thanks for your time.

In the past 8 months we have lived at our residence, two of our cars have been hit. We utilize street parking on 2nd street. My roommate had her mirror taken off a couple of months ago and mine has just now been hit. I would like to submit a recommendation that at least part of second street be a one-way, as this is obviously not an isolated incident. We often hear people honking outside of our house as they try to pass each other. We attempt to park as closely to the curb as possible to mitigate the possibility of our cars being hit but clearly people cannot drive. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

This morning at the crosswalk into Hyde Park I almost got hit by a car going at excessive speed. Person never stopped or even braked. I thought I had enough time to make it. I ran and avoided him. Fortunately as a 75 year old woman. Several years ago a traffic accident occurred at this location resulting in injury. This occurred when I was standing waiting. I emailed my city councilman to request that a flashing light be installed as a safety measure. He never responded. I won’t vote for him again.

Can 12th street be made into a one-way? It is too narrow with the street parking for East and West traffic. I see frequent traffic jams and near miss accidents when cars try to squeeze past each other.
