in the morning and in the afternoon when school is starting/ending one can spend more than 10 minutes making a left turn here. Today I had one car ahead of me attempting this who eventually turned right after 11 minutes, while at least 5 school buses trying to get to Tri-North and a large number of cards piled up behind me. A stop sign or a light that is programed for school hours would make it a lot easier and help keep everyone arrive on time. An additional challenge is that you have a lot of new drivers (HS) who don't always use their turn signals or don't know to stop before turning on to Prow Rd and allow for taking turns.

Drivers don’t have pedestrian crosswalks in their line of vision! I have to wave my hands to get the attention of some cars turning right in front of me onto the highway. I’ve seen them shocked to see me. I points to the crossing sign and they look mystified. That’s a problem not to overplay this, but statistically pedestrian accidents on in suburbia, and on highways or streets, and make situation is skyrocketing, I don’t want to be one of them put a Second crossing sign on the Mouradian that’s where drivers expect to see it, meaning, that’s how far they are looking while they’re looking at everything else, too, like crossing traffic, merging decisions, timing, their own lights . They’re not looking for us walkers. So I need you to correct this with immediate instillation of bigger better pedestrian crossing warnings and signs. Thank you.

Cont. Attention to more aggressive crossing lights. I reported this intersection, with its crosswalks and pedestrican cross lights, as being inadequate, given the frequency that drivers do not even sense that they should look way across six lanes of traffic to decide if they should wait for me or run over me. I mistakenly wrote the whole note referring to “crosswalks”; what I meant to write (couldn’t find an edit function after I sent it) pedestrian cross LIGHTS within the drivers’ line of vision. Would you attach this to the other unreported? Much thanks. Sorry for my error.

There is an URGENT need for a stop light at the intersection of 10th street and John Hinkle Place with Woodbridge Apartments. Specifically, children are crossing that intersection every day to board school buses. I have personally witnessed occasions when cars traveling both east and west in 10th street have had to apply brakes in an emergency manner to avoid fatalities. I can assure you it is only a matter of time before pedestrians and vehicles will be involved in accidents resulting in fatalities. The City of Bloomington is hereby put on notice that unless this emergency situation is not addressed the result will be fatalities. As an attorney, I can assure you that the City is legally liable WHEN these fatalities occur. Thank you. Randall Smith 650 Woodbridge Drive Bloomington IN 47408 Telephone: 812 325 1226.

Would it be possible to install a mirror at the intersection of Maxwell and Thorntor to make it easier to turn left into Maxwell coming from Thorntor, since there’s not good visibility at the intersection. Thank you
