1011 W. Howe St. North/South Alleyway on east side of property. And east west alleyway just behind.
The alley running east to west has been closed since 11.05.2025 due to a small asphalt repair. I am unsure why it is still closed eight days later. It is disrupting the flow of traffic through the neighborhood.
The corner of 15th and Woodburn desperately needs a four way stop. We hear numerous near collisions daily. It is impossible to see oncoming traffic as they speed down 15th street while sitting at the stop sign on Woodburn Ave going north. Heading south, there is a better visual of incoming traffic. If not a stop sign, please look into how close to the intersection cars are allowed to park as it completely obstructs the ability to observe oncoming traffic.
Just a suggestion, it would be helpful to have a crosswalk from Bloomington HS South from or around the faculty parking lot and or where the busses line up to a side walk. Currently, students are just crossing the street and it’s really unsafe.
There are 4 planters on this street that have overgrown bushes that need trimmed and maintained.
