There is a very dangerous vehicular traffic pattern on S Woodlawn Ave between Sheridan Dr and E Hillside Dr, especially near the Grimes & Woodlawn and Weatherstone & Woodlawn intersections. There is a blind hill on Woodlawn that greatly decreases visibility for everyone. North @ south-bound vehicles on Woodlawn regularly break the speed limit by 20+ MPH and have even seen estimated speeds of 70+ mph. Sometimes vehicles "floor it" on Woodlawn southbound from Sheridan Ln stop sign. The city should consider installing a STOP sign on Woodlawn @ Grimes intersection to decrease the speed of North & South-bound traffic on Woodlawn Ave. The city should also consider additional signage to protect pedestrians who are crossing from Weatherstone Ln to Bryan Park. I have almost been hit there several times by speeding cars and trucks. This is a primary route for cyclists, pedestrians, commuting students, and dog-walkers. Pedestrians and cyclists crossing Woodlawn anywhere between Hillside and Sheridan Ave risk injury and death by vehicles speeding up and down the blind hill. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
Alley is impassible without scratching vehicle due to growth hanging over from the yards.

This path (4th street corridor) is not being maintained. IT was razed some time back and is getting worse.
Submitted a report but didn't show up in the system? Someone is going to die, likely multiple, if changes aren't made to Smith and 3rd. New 3rd by the State is great but has caused something to change with the Smith traffic. Left turners are hesitating backing up traffic (no big deal) but they are hesitating because cars behind them are zipping around going straight while folks are trying to wait and turn. Meaning the folks can't turn safely, and when they do POW crashes like tonight at 7 pm happen. Please do a traffic study and coordinate with the State for immediate safety improvement. Please do not punt this to the State, but be involved, as Bloomingtonions are going to die; forget traffic, this is about safety. Ideally there needs to be a left turn green arrow only and then a straight signal but that may need lanes. So I don't know the solution, but cars zipping around hitting left turners, etc. is NOT sustainble.
large sidewalk gap on Arlington just north of the new roundabout, on the west side, it seems incomplete, or maybe they are going to finish it soon?
