At the intersection of West 3rd Street & South Walnut Street: The pedestrian "Walk" illumination for pedestrians walking NB from the SW corner to the NW corner is not working as of 1:15 p.m. today. I apologize for not having a photo. Thanks!
On the southeast corner of Sheridan Drive and Hawthorne Drive, the bushes are blocking the entire view of traffic coming east to west on Sheridan, including all pedestrian and bicycle traffic in the multi-use path there. You can't even see cars. You have to be pulled out into the multi-use path to see around. There are 3 bushes that need seriously trimmed or totally removed for cyclist and motorist and pedestrian safety.
Excessive speeding on this road 24/7
There is road work being done, closing the easternmost northbound lane of Walnut in the intersection. The normally middle lane has signs marking it as right turn only, meaning cars going straight north are supposed to get into the left turn lane where they get stuck behind cars waiting to turn left. And those are the cars that obey the right turn only signs. Most don't. They use what is being called right turn only to go straight. Therefore, at times, cars from both lanes are trying to go straight at once. They need to take those signs down and just let everyone going north OR turning right to use that lane. Right turns rarely hold up traffic there, but left turns always do. With people using both lanes to go north and users of each thinking the other guy is wrong, it's causing conflicts, near misses, and road rage.
High-speed traffic that drives from west to east by w allen st
Filed U Report 207188. I’m reading updates and misinformation. The cross- street I filed on is Smith Road not Smith Pike. And I did not ask for additional police presence. They already do that to catch speeders. We need speed bumps and the speed sign like they have on Hillside around the corner from us. There’s more speeders on Smith Rd than Hillside.
Summit Elementary’s new road that connects to the neighborhood/woods is missing a yield or stop sign. It connects to traffic that is already moving and I think this is a dangerous situation. I hope someone can come and assess it.
This Subaru has been parked continuously from December 9th/Tueday a.m. through December 11th/Thursday pm, then parked in the same spot later December 11/Thursday p.m to December 12/Friday as I submit this report.The license plate is “Indiana LWDBB”. I simply want this to be documented with the City of Bloomington .I have other photos of this Subaru with time stamps for each day and I suspect this car managed to be moved just short of the 72 hour threshold for a car being tagged as a possibly being abandoned. FWIW, this is a chronic problem on the 900 south block of Eastside Drive. We have cars parked daily/overnight and these are students that live in the Maxwell Terrace apartments and avoid an added monthly parking fee by Maxwell Terrace by using Eastside Drive as their free open air parking 24/7. The daily numbers swell as the academic year advances. I’m not expecting any action on this car from Parking Enforcement. I just want the information to be documented for future issues. Thanks so much. Diane Leirer
Red Ford 150 Truck with Indiana License Plate: TK1260XW always parked on the streets on the "No parking" side. Parked right in front of our driveway and hard to take our vehicle out with near miss happening more than once. Obstruction to USPS delivery trucks, garbage trucks and snow trucks. They have 3 vehicles and 1 Boat. All 3 vehicles parked outside garage with 1 vehicle on street at all times.
People park illegally on my residential street every time the church has a service. Sometimes this happens on Friday at 2pm, including today. I typically use the street to park, legally, with my residential permit. These illegal parkers take up all the space so I have to park somewhere else. It is very annoying.
