As I was heading east on W 2nd st today, traffic was backed up all the way to I69. The reason for this was the newer light installed at the Sportsplex intersection. Once I finally go

Once I was near this red light, only 1 car went through from Sportplex. This light is entirely unnecessary and causes backup on 2nd which is a very heavily traveled street. Please fix this
'YIELD' and 'Bike Lane' signs on E First close to the intersection with Sheridan are almost obscured by branches. If you are there, maybe you can clip the overhanging branch that will hit antennas and higher vehicles when they drive by. I complained about this branch before, the case was closed, but not satisfactorily solved. #176241
Driving eastbound and approaching Indiana, the stop sign is on a downhill and hidden by a tree until a driver is very close to the intersection. Most intersections on 12th have no stop, so folks new to the area are likely to miss it.
In regards to the alley in between Lincoln and Grant, behind the Boys and Girls club. As you may know, that stretch of Lincoln is closed due to construction. Currently the only way to access The Boys and Girls Club is through the alley. The Club has asked parents to treat it as a one way, following the flow of Lincoln. Though of course not many are abiding and it’s almost caused me an accident last week. I had a small fender bender in that alley in 2019, he sped through one of the entrances to the alley going towards Grant as I was moving towards 3rd. With heavier traffic through this area for the Club, it’s a creating dangerous mess. I would at the very least suggest temporary “One Way” signs following the flow of Lincoln St during this construction to prevent any accidents and congestion. Thank you for your time.
1615/1605 University: 'Speed Limit 25' sign being obscured by overhanging branches. Also, could the shrubs between 1615 and 1605 be trimmed to that they won't take up part of the street? With cars solidly parked on one side, sometimes it is hard to avoid hitting the branches.
When you’re headed out of Bloomington, there is a sign on the right hand side of the road before you come up to the intersection that leads you to Lake Griffy on Old State Road 37. The sign tells you which direction to go if you would like to get to the nature preserve, or the dog park, and the monastery. Somebody spray-painted over the Tibetan monastery portion of the sign.
Dismount zone sign has been washed away and sitting crosswalk in northwest corner of Grant and Kirkwood
Stop sign is obscured by tree limbs.
Going northbound on High Street, the traffic light on Hillside will turn green, and immediately go to red before I've had time to clear the intersection on my bike. This seems unsafe. Can the timing be adjusted here to provide adequate time for cyclists to clear the intersection before the light changes?
