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.

Hi, as a cyclist, I find it awkward have any ability to signal my attention to cross the street East bound on W Allen St across S Walnut St. As it turns out, the signal button is on the North side of Allen, and if I stay in correct lane, there is no crossing button to activate. Is this the intended design? If I move over to the north side of the street, that places me in any oncoming traffic from cars turning on to Allen southbound from Walnut.
Also, can you let me know if the bridge on Allen between Walnut and the BLine trail will ever be opened? It is an eye sore, and I’ve noticed the area continues to deteriorate, with increased vandalism to vehicles at the Auto Haven Autoparts. This is sad.
Potholes, Other Street Repair

this washed out patch is a fairly serious safety issue for cars and pedestrians. Due to recent work on a sidewalk on Clover Lane, orange traffic cones were available, and were placed at the site of the hole to reduce the risk of an accident. City personnel came to see the issue, and took away the traffic cones, thereby increasing the risk of an accident. City personnel informed me that the hole would be repaired "soon" by the fiber optics installation contractor. While I understand that this sort of thing takes some time to coordinate and complete, the removal of the orange cone and the lack of a repair, is creating a safety risk for cars and pedestrians in the area. thanks, kelly

The northbound lane of Eagleson Avenue between Atwater and 3rd Street (in front of the Village Pantry and Dragon Express) is sinking. The integrity of the road appears to be compromised and feels like it is going to give way.

Pete Ellis new complex is confusing and causing dangerous situations with drivers by blocking off major roads with "flagger ahead" instead of road closed. Worker when approaching says you cannot enter. Forcing left turns onto College Mall Road for instance among others to exit after nearing.

Scooters, Bike-share and Related Issues

I am a student at Indiana University. The electronic scooters have been insanely helpful to navigating the campus when busses are full or running late. I appreciate the no-parking zones, as they help keep the sidewalks freer of the scooters and allow for accessibile use. My issue currently is that there are official IU Campus buildings registered as no-parking zones. In particular, the Arts Annex building on 12th and Woodlawn. I am asking for the city of Bloomington to work with IU officials on clearly labeling campus buildings where scooter parking zones should be present. Then, the city of Bloomington takes that info to the electronic scooter companies to update their apps and services.
