Traffic Related Complaints
Morton & 7th, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA

Can the City explain how a driver of a vehicle is supposed to see cross-traffic on 7th Street from Morton without being in the crosswalk and almost in the intersection? I was headed north on Morton and came to the intersection at 7th where cross traffic now does not stop on 7th. The buildings, trees, and other clutter to either side of the intersection make it very dangerous to see bicycles and traffic coming on 7th Street. I had to completely block the pedestrian crosswalk and approach the intersection to feel safe about my assessment of cross traffic.
This is a very bad design. The entire 7th Street project seems poorly conceived and designed. I have witnessed multiple people driving in the bike lanes. Was the budget so low that stop signs and "traffic keep left" signs were not affordable and we ended up with this mess to just make something work? There are a ton of safety issues I have witnessed. Someone is going to get hurt soon it seems, or taken out by a bus mirror.

Ugh I’m sorry to have to bother again! I understand there are far more important issues to be tended to but this is just getting ridiculous honestly. Once again I can hear the generator sound running and has officially yet again awaken my kids. My kids have school in the morning and I honestly don’t know what else I can do about this situation. If the electric bill is their issue and the SCCAP office is literally right in walking distance then maybe they should seek assistance to get help paying it. Again I’m very sorry to bother your officers with this issue once again.

Traffic light keeps going from green to red in less than 10 seconds for traffic on Patterson. This is an on-going issue for the last few weeks.

I visited downtown Bloomington today and it was my understanding there was free parking at the meters for small business Saturday. The meters were flashing red and was confused if I needed to pay. Screen said nothing about free parking. Just wanted to let someone in the city to be aware.

Please do not allow food trucks on Kirkwood to block line of sight to stop signs along Kirkwood. One afternoon we witnessed at least six cars run the stop sign at Kirkwood and Lincoln because a food truck obstruction vision of the stop sign at that corner. There were a couple of near-misses with pedestrians and other cars with ROW. I love food trucks, but let's either move the stop signs further out or ban the food trucks from blocking view of the stop signs on the corners. (Keep them on the east side of each block).

This sign needs more attention. I am not sure if it needs to be set up or removed.

Thank you. Seriously, I just want to say "thank you" to the city for finally cleaning up Duke's huge mess of discarded branches and logs along the west side of S High. It was an infuriating, massive eyesore and termite bait that looked like a WW1 battlefield. Kudos!
