Traffic Signals

Case Date:
5/30/2023

signal at smith ave and walnut (by chocolate moose) has a bunch of bike & ped problems. It's not generally possible for me to get a green light to cross walnut by bike (is the bike sensor supposed to work? it doesn't). this morning, we got a green light but it only lasted 2 seconds! this is supposed to be a greenway! i am trying to get two kids across! also, the north south crosswalk signals (parallel to walnut) are generally red DONT WALK even when walnut's car signals are green. its been screwed up one way or the other for about 9 months, but it worked fine (recall mode for east-west traffic) last summer, at least at 8:30am and 4:30pm. anyways I'm teaching my 9 and 11 year olds the illegal idaho stop light and i wish i wasn't!!

signal at smith and walnut (just north of seminary square) used to operate in some sort of recall mode, but this week has not been. as a cyclist i dont seem to have any way to activate the signal. i'm typically eastbound here and stopping in the middle of the bike rectangle there doesnt seem to have any effect. i have been running the red, which is unideal. thanks!

Poorly timed traffic lights. maybe it seems like a small problem, and maybe its only noticeable during the summer months, but it seems common that cars are brought up to full speed only to have to stop at the next light while traveling a main route (Walnut, College Mall Rd, and Winslow Rd). It would be spectacular to allow the algorhythm thats used o determine when the lights change to be open source and worked on by IU informatics students. My primary concern stems from fuel efficiency.

Not really a problem, but there are two construction signs that were left from the construction of the bypass and east third street. Just thought they might come in handy for the next project.

There is a sign that says IU game traffic . It is on westbound 46 on the way to Elletsville, I think it should be on the east bound side of 46 heading towards Bloomington.

Trails

Case Date:
4/25/2021

Old 37 & n walnut. The ped xing across walnut (part of the cascades trail that connects to griffy) is still / again broken. I stayed for five minutes, pushed the beg buttons lots of times, tried both directions. Always the red hand, never the white walk. The intersection is cycling normally and promptly for cars. The crossing of old 37 appears to be operating in ped recall mode (ie, working), though its countdown timer is misconfigured. But the high-stress crossing of walnut is versnickered. I get sick when i think how many millions of dollars we've spent on this recreational facility to still have this gap in the most dangerous part.

Trash

one of the restaurants in the alley next to Btown diner has been dumping their fryer oil in the alley. I spoke with Monroe County Health (Sylvia Garrison) about this problem. She is going to contact the restaurants on 6th between Walnut and College. Garrison stated that Street Department pressure washed the alley after her last inspection and that helped a great deal.
