Traffic light out of sync
Traffic light out of sync
Constituent reported that the sounds (those in use for the visually-impaired) on the traffic signals at the SE and SW corners of Kirkwood and College aren't working.
On E Second Street on the west end across from Rogers and Binford schools: the YOUR SPEED indicator sign has been broken for a while now.
The light at Walnut and Kirkwood is mistimed for northbound traffic on Walnut. Instead of waiting at one light and then getting green lights for the rest of the lights on Walnut, traffic has to stop at Kirkwood and again at 6th Street.
Left turn arrow for 7th onto college does not work. Waited two green light cycles and never got a green arrow.
The traffic light at 7th and College isn’t giving westbound traffic the green arrow, and now that that intersection is “turn on green arrow only” cars are stacking up in the left turn lane with no chance to go. This evening I sat through 3 light cycles and never got the green arrow, despite the fact that there were 3-4 cars behind me. This is especially problematic at the moment because 7th is closed at Morton St, so 95% of westbound traffic on 7th needs to turn left onto College. Could this be fixed, and the resulting green arrow made long enough for 3-4 cars to get through before it turns red? Thanks!
The street light is out and is in flash.
The 'do not walk' light on the southeast corner of 7th and Walnut is burned out.
11th and Grant. This stop sign is just hanging by a single bolt (with no nut) to the pole. And it is also only approximately five feet off the ground unlike the other stops signs in the area that are about 7 feet off the ground.
The view of oncoming traffic is obscured at this intersect by the residences. I have not been in or witnessed a collision, but I believe that safety is a concern. I believe that any misfortune might be mitigated with the posting of stop signs or the placement of convex traffic mirrors. The surrounding residences are property of Indiana University. I am a lessee of one of these properties- 824 1/2 East Cottage Grove Avenue.
