We live on a one way street but there is only a one way sign on the main road entrance of the street. As a result of this, GPS navigation sends cars down the wrong way of the one way and this is incredibly dangerous. There needs to be a new sign put in on the other side of the street to stop this from happening.
There is a pot hole in the 800 bock of W 6th St. It should be patched before freezing weather ends access to hot asphalt.
Alleyway road is crumbled and impossible to drive on
The street light between 3210 and 3214 S. Coppertree Dr. Is not working. It comes on intermittently for a few minutes then shuts off and is off most of the time.
Traffic lights for northbound on Curry Pike are turned enough that you can't see them when coming up to it. Too many people run the red light when it's green for W. Gifford Road.
Large pothole on eastbound side of Oakdale Drive.
There was an auto accident a couple of hours ago and all of the debris is still in the intersection causing drivers to unsafely navigate the intersection from multiple directions.
I am writing to formally request the consideration of an ordinance prohibiting the use of engine brakes (commonly known as “Jake Brakes”) on E 3rd Street West of SR 446 into Bloomington. This stretch of road, being a key route with both residential and commercial presence, frequently experiences disruptive noise pollution from heavy trucks utilizing engine brakes. As a resident in the area at Summerhouse, I can personally attest to the significant impact this has on daily life and overall well-being. The frequent noise not only disrupts daytime activities but also affects my ability to sleep soundly at night, compromising rest and health. Supporting Evidence: 1. Noise Pollution and Health: Studies have consistently shown that chronic exposure to high-decibel noise—like that produced by engine brakes—can contribute to sleep disturbances, increased stress levels, and even cardiovascular risks. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), noise above 55 dB is considered harmful, and engine brakes often exceed 80–100 dB. 2. Ordinance Effectiveness: Many municipalities across the U.S. have adopted engine brake ordinances in residential areas to reduce noise pollution and improve quality of life. 3. Local Impact: Given the residential density and commercial activity along E 3rd Street, enforcing a restriction would bring it in line with common noise abatement practices, ensuring a quieter, more livable environment for its residents. I believe that introducing this ordinance would not only improve the quality of life for residents but also align with community standards of noise control and public health considerations. I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss this matter further and provide any additional information that may be helpful. Thank you for your time and consideration.
The multiuse trail between 1099 Winslow Rd and the intersection of Winslow and Xavier Ct. has hazardous head-height tree branches. Particularly on a bicycle, it is challenging and dangerous to navigate down the hill while ducking and swerving to avoid hitting head on tree branches. Low branches should be cut throughout that section of trail to make it safer. Thank you.
Pothole on right edge of the southbound lane of Kinser pike, just north of the side street that leads into the back of Bloomington High School North ('Cougar Drive' I think it's called, but it isn't labeled on the map). I know the address reported here is 'Whitewood way', but the pothole is on Kinser Pike! Roughly where I've aligned the bullseye on the map.
