construction detour on Kirkwood blocked again by cement truck
construction detour on Kirkwood blocked again by cement truck
When turning out of E. Wilson St. onto S. Woodlawn Ave., it's nearly impossible to see oncoming traffic from the north because of a large yew bush close to the street. The bush is in the southeast corner of the lawn at the second house north of the intersection. It was difficult to see when the bush was small and has only gotten worse.
Sidewalk at 411 S Lincoln is covered in a layer of gravel.
Twitter User Charlie Trout (@jozliketheshark) made the following suggestion: Hey @citybloomington there have been two car accidents outside of my house today, I think it’s time to make 5th and Jefferson a 4-way stop
Intersection of Ruby and Circle Drive. This is part of the Allen-Covenanter Greenway for cyclists. The other day I was coming from Circle, ready to turn left on Ruby, when I almost hit a cyclist on Ruby, whom I had not seen because of the high grasses in the yard of the Ruby-Circle Drive corner house. Maybe the 2 bushes closest to the intersection could be cut back, for better visibility for motorists coming from Circle Drive.
I called over 30 days ago to notify you the city owned trees between our property and the street are blocking the line of sight getting out of our driveway. Since that phone call, there have been 3 near-misses by vehicles I could not see. Our address is 4000 S Jamie Lane. This needs to be taken care of ASAP. Thank you, Kathy Carter
Please send someone out to cut the weeds on S. Ford Avenue in Bloomington. You cannot pull out onto Ralston Drive from Ford and see if any cars are coming from the right due to all the weeds. This is every year, you would think it could get taken care of without people living on the road having to make numerous calls and letters. You can't even pass a car on the road due to the weeds! I will be going up the chain of command with this issue.
There are barricades protecting the bike lane just north of 11th on college, presumably to stop drivers from using it as a right turn lane during construction?? Nice thought but the crane significantly overhangs the barricade. Nvm that the bus stop is hindered.
Line of sight is obstructed by trees on S. College Ave when turning left onto College from Smith St.
Can we get a flashing red four-way or something at Smith and Morningside? People NEVER stop and it is dangerous for bikers, walkers, and even cars that need to turn. Please enhance safety and enforcement somehow at intersection. Thank you. Repeat problem.
