Sidewalk Requests

101-199 E Sunny Slopes Dr, Bloomington, Indiana, 47401

Case Date:
3/15/2019

Hello, We live in the Echo Park community (2780 S. Walnut St. Pk.). We basically do not have safe walking access to the nearby Winslow Street. Families and the elderly risk their lives walking on the side of the asphalt, at a pretty dagerous intersection (cars do not have good sight when they turn to this street). Adding a short sidewalk would solve this problem. See picture attached (the problematic area is marked in red). It is a tragedy waiting to happen. Thank you.

I live on W Smith Avenue in Bloomington Indiana and this is a brief clip of the construction that continues to go on literally steps outside my apartment. I am shooting this video from just inside my door. I am most concerned with the extreme noise pollution that has to violate the noise ordinance, not to mention the safety hazard and risk management nightmare presented by the fact that less than 5 feet and some yellow caution tape separates my front step and a 15+ foot drop. We have not been contacted by anyone working on this project or any city officials, except that we were notified by our landlord that they afraid that our 'car was going to fall into the hole.' I am hoping that someone with the city will see this video and realize that my home is basically unlivable at this point. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhiAFsHppKU&feature=plcp

I wanted to bring something to your attention. The new light at Rockport & Tapp is nice, but was not the most cyclist friendly yesterday (Sunday, 11/25/2018) morning. I came in and out of town on a group ride via Rockport. We were only four cyclists, so not a big group. In both directions, the light took quite a while to turn for us (with no other traffic around). Then, once we got the green light, it already turned yellow before we were 1/3 of the way (or maybe 1/2 way) into the intersection. A very short light. As a group, we basically communicated, "Green, let's go - hurry up, yellow already!" My concern is a cyclist trying to get through that light, and it turns green for east/west traffic on Tapp before the cyclist can even clear half of the intersection. (Which, with the heavy fog yesterday and the crest of a hill to the west on Tapp, we were concerned). I told my mother about the timing of the light and she said on Saturday she was the third car at a red light on Rockport and the light turned yellow before she could get through the intersection. Maybe the City is still fine tuning things . . .

Left the Highlands neighborhood this morning out Rockport around 7:35. There were maybe 8-10 cars in front of me the Rockport/Tapp intersection, took me 5 lights to get through it. Somebody needs to monitor the traffic adjust the light or something. 1-3 (barely) cars can get through each time, depending on who is turning left onto Tapp, which were about 1/3 of the cars. This is prime school time and it took me longer to get through this intersection than inching through traffic on Gordon AND on Rogers, and a lot of people still don't even know this is open so I only imagine this getting worse. The light in the other directions lasted much longer and there was less traffic. Please do something about this soon. Thank you.

Traffic Suggestions

101299 E North Dr, Bloomington, IN 47401, USA

Case Date:

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.
