The crosswalk at 10th St. & Fee Ln is not working properly, and this is not related to building construction. Several weeks ago, the signal stopped allowing protected pedestrian right-of-way to pedestrians crossing 10th Street. The crosswalk button ceased functioning at the same time. This has been reported previously and it has not been resolved. Meanwhile, hundreds of people are daily risking their lives to cross the street, while being conditioned to ignore crosswalk signals.
Sections of 10th street could use pedestrian crossings. 10th and Washington can be particularly difficult to cross on foot.
The pedestrian walk signal to cross 10th street at this intersection is not functional.
I'm with the IU Grounds Crew, I received a report that the light at 10th and Fee is completely out.
The traffic light is down and it caused a huge traffic
The turn lights are very short. They only let maybe 3 cars through before it changes. This is especially an issue in the mornings when traffic is heavy. The worst light is when you pull out of Kroger and head towards 45 bypass
I was facing East on Indiana 45 and turning left (North) onto Kinser Pike. I didn't make the green left turn arrow and ended up in the middle of the intersection waiting to make an unprotected left. My light turned red but oncoming traffic still had a green, the oncoming turn lane got a green arrow. I was unable to clear the intersection, was unable to back up with cars behind me, and was blocking traffic from Kinser Pike when they got a green light. This is dangerous, I had assumed that oncoming traffic also had a red and would stop (as it had been for years), I was starting to clear the intersection by making the left when I realized oncoming cars weren't stopping. A turn lane where unprotected turns are allowed should not get a red while oncoming traffic still has a green.
The light at the intersection of Union and 10th has a turn arrow. Last summer the turn arrow stopped working. I assumed it was due to reduced traffic from fewer students. But it's approaching a year and the arrow still does not work. P.S. There are potholes in the left turn lane on Union, turning East onto 10th. They make that turn really rough.
Bottom of crosswalk broken out / missing and wires exposed.
