For over 17 years we have lived close to the corner of Dillman and S. Old 37. As I type yet another traffic accident is being cleaned up at this intersection. It is time to have a 4 way stop put in. No more rumble strips, or intersection signs or yellow blinking lights, or cutting back the tree/brush line. (well, that does need to happen:-) This has got to be one of the most dangerous intersections in town. People coming off of 37 drive down old 37 like they are still on the highway. With the amount of houses, buses and children that are living in the area I would have thought that something would have been done by now to fix this problem, which is a serious safety issue to anyone trying to cross the road. The solution of a four way makes since and would not hurt the pocket book of Bloomington. If it is an inconvenience for people to stop then so be it. This has gone on for far too long and all attempts to do something, in the form of rumble strips,intersection signs,yellow blinking lights etc., by the city/county have just been band aids not real solutions. Please take my request seriously. Many of us living on the south side have children who are reaching the age where they will be on the roads as young drivers. As an adult with over 20 years of driving experience, I dread approaching this intersection or even pulling out of my own driveway near this intersection. Its a death trap and a game of chance. Thanks so much for your time. Regards, Nelson Cano

The lane markings at the entrance to the Jordan Avenue Parking Garage are incomplete. There are white lane markings for the exiting traffic, but there is no line of any kind marking the separation between ingoing and outgoing traffic. Shouldn't there be a yellow line there? I have witnessed several close calls at this location, when a vehicle entering the garage crosses a couple of feet over where the yellow line SHOULD be, into the left-turn lane for the exiting traffic.

Could you please look at putting a 4-way stop in at the intersection of Pete Ellis and Longview. Because of the increased traffic due to the closing of the 10th and by-pass intersection, it makes it nearly impossible to get across Pete Ellis whilst traveling on Longview.

Consider installing "Wrong Way" signs for cyclists on Third Street. As a bus operator, I can't tell you how many near-collisions I've had with cyclists popping out of nowhere going the wrong way on Third at night.

Hello! I live just off of the intersection of 5th Street and Bryan Avenue, right next to the IU Raintree House. I've noticed that one of the stop signs at the four way stop is missing, the post and all. I've seen people driving right through without stopping, and then realized that the sign was completely gone. It is the stop sign on the north east side of the intersection. Just wanted to let somebody know. Thank you for your help!

The stop sign at the corner of S Heritage Rd and E Morningside Dr is very faded.

There needs to be a pedistrian crossing at the corner of Union and 5th. It is often dangerous to cross there.

Good afternoon. I believe it is necessary to put up additional signs at the traffic circle on Jordan by Reed Hall. My understanding is that, at least in Indiana, the law is that vehicles entering a traffic circle are required to yield to traffic already in the circle. I have been nearly hit by several vehicles, including city buses, that do not even slow down when entering the circle, much less yield. I have also seen vehicles turning the wrong way out of Reed Hall when they want to go south on Jordan. If I'm mistaken, and this traffic circle is governed by some other rule, please, please let me know so that I can avoid being hit by a vehicle with the right of way, but otherwise, it's critical that additional signage is placed there to avoid the inevitable wreck.

I have been a teacher at the Project School for 3 years now and we are in desperate need of more clear signage that Smith Ave is a one way street going west, especially now that Chocolate Moose has started food truck fridays again. I'm guessing because of the bike lane and the stop sign going East it may confuse drivers, but I think we need paint on the road with arrows and more one way signage.

At the stoplight on E. Covenanter, close to the shopping complex with Kroger, there is a lack of painted street markings indicating where the left-turn lane is and where the street at the intersection is divided between traffic directions. I have often witnessed this resulting in confused drivers, who sometimes attempt driving straight across College Mall Road when they are actually in the left-turn lane. Proper street markings and arrows should be painted to make this less confusing and less dangerous for everyone.
