Sidewalk Requests
300-498 E Brownstone Dr, Bloomington, Indiana, 47408
- Case Date:
- 11/14/2018
I'm an IU Bloomington student who walks to the stadium everyday to take the IU buses to class. There are no sidewalks on my walk from Brownstone Terrace to the stadium which forces me to walk on the side of the road, where student drivers who don't pay attention swerve around me at the last second. Additionally when the weather is bad, I'm even forced to walk in the road, putting myself at risk to get hit by a car. I'm also proposing more off campus lighting & would love to meet with someone about these issues to come up with an effective plan. It's unsafe walking home from a late night class or to an early morning class & not being able to see your surroundings. Some of the city lights don't even work. If more light poles were installed, it would reduce the off campus crime rate. The city of Bloomington, not IU, is reponsible to address these issues because it's there property.

I'm writing about the lighting situation on N Rosewood. Along this road, the street lights are sparse, and the distance between the street lights sometimes covers two blocks. The light seems to be dimmer, not sure if this is due to the tree branches blocking the lights or the lights are failing. Considering a decent amount of traffic on this road (due to the high school and a corporate building nearby), it is both inconvenient and sometimes unsafe for residents (especially kids) to walk in that area after sunset (when it's almost pitch dark). Would it be possible to install a few more lights in between the existing ones, or check existing lights to increase brightness.

"There is one left turning lane, one lane to go straight, and one lane to turn right. The middle lane to continue straight should also have the option to turn left. Hardly anyone leaving the McDonalds, Cheddars, Pizza Hut, fire department, and the hotels are going straight. The light to leave our area is not long and I truly believe the flow will greatly improve with a dual straight and left hand turning lane."

Turning west onto the 45/46 bypass at walnut... the turn arrows let about 4 or 5 cars go thru at best... even if they speed off the line... can the duration of the green arrow be lengthened a "few cars" or so...

hello. i'm confused about when yard waste pickup happens. for the last three mondays (my pickup day is monday) i have put my yard waste out but it hasn't been picked up (and no notice has been left indicating that there's a reason why it can't be picked up). has yard waste pickup not been happening? i unfortunately can't keep bringing it in and out, so i've left it out for now.
thanks for looking into this issue!
