I pick my child up at tri north but it a safe hazard. Bus drivers almost hit cars every day. Road being blocked by cars parking on road with yellow curbs or 2 cars on both side of road making it dangerous to kids and drivers. Cars front of parking area on yellow curb maple and 11st. Cars making 2 way driving impossible entering blaire from 11 th. And 14th and Dyer. It would be nice to make one way so buses and traffic could go one direction.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

2741 Pinemeadow Dr, Bloomington, Indiana, 47403

Case Date:
2/7/2019

I'd like to report a man-made pothole on the westbound side of Tapp Rd just after you pass through the intersection of Rockport/Tapp. This intersection is brand new and there is a manhole that is installed 2-3 inches below the street surface. The road has a curvature but the manhole is countersunk flat creating a man-made pothole. It wouldn't be so bad except it is in the direct line of tire travel coming out of the intersection. and if you swerve to miss it you're perfectly set up to hit the next manhole, which isn't as bad, but still this is a brand new intersection. I have also observed multiple people swerving into the oncoming lanes turning lane to miss this manhole which creates a whole other hazard. Please have someone fix this issue. With today's low profile tires I'm sure it's already wiped out a few rims.

temporary speed bumps were placed in Broadview neighborhood during the intersection closure of Tapp/Country Club and Rockport. These speed bumps should be removed as they were temporary and the newly improved intersection is open.

I wanted to bring something to your attention. The new light at Rockport & Tapp is nice, but was not the most cyclist friendly yesterday (Sunday, 11/25/2018) morning. I came in and out of town on a group ride via Rockport. We were only four cyclists, so not a big group. In both directions, the light took quite a while to turn for us (with no other traffic around). Then, once we got the green light, it already turned yellow before we were 1/3 of the way (or maybe 1/2 way) into the intersection. A very short light. As a group, we basically communicated, "Green, let's go - hurry up, yellow already!" My concern is a cyclist trying to get through that light, and it turns green for east/west traffic on Tapp before the cyclist can even clear half of the intersection. (Which, with the heavy fog yesterday and the crest of a hill to the west on Tapp, we were concerned). I told my mother about the timing of the light and she said on Saturday she was the third car at a red light on Rockport and the light turned yellow before she could get through the intersection. Maybe the City is still fine tuning things . . .

Left the Highlands neighborhood this morning out Rockport around 7:35. There were maybe 8-10 cars in front of me the Rockport/Tapp intersection, took me 5 lights to get through it. Somebody needs to monitor the traffic adjust the light or something. 1-3 (barely) cars can get through each time, depending on who is turning left onto Tapp, which were about 1/3 of the cars. This is prime school time and it took me longer to get through this intersection than inching through traffic on Gordon AND on Rogers, and a lot of people still don't even know this is open so I only imagine this getting worse. The light in the other directions lasted much longer and there was less traffic. Please do something about this soon. Thank you.

Regarding the Bloomington TRAFFIC STUDY; response to Beth Rosenbarger's comments regarding crashes and personal injury accidents at the recent Plan Commission meeting: Isn't it possible, the most crashes and personal injuries recorded in Bloomington happen on these one-way streets (Walnut & College and 3rd St. & Atwater), simply because they are the closest thing we currently have to city thoroughfares? I suspect these four streets/avenues are the mostly highly traveled each and every day, thus it is logical there will be more crashes where there is consistently more traffic! The frustration brought on by sitting/waiting in traffic behind busses and delivery vehicles, with no way around them on a two-way street, will most likely lead to crashes and personal injury, as well. Two-way streets are unlikely to result in fewer accidents and injuries. In fact, it may force traffic onto more side streets resulting in more injuries on side streets, as well.

NE corner of 17th&dunn. My kids are into riddle humor so maybe you'll enjoy this one: Q. What kind of licensed engineer puts a shared path to the right of a dedicated right turn lane where drivers don't even stop for a red light? A. The kind that ignores the MUTCD. Hahahahaha that's even funnier than the time my 4yo gave a long set up forthe punchline "buttcrack". But in all seriousness, the SE corner doesn't have a sidewalk connection for east/west peds and there are no painted crosswalks either. The MUTCD, bro, bible or nah?

Sidewalk Requests

2495 S Walnut Street PIKE

Case Date:

The sidewalk ends abruptly in a very dangerous intersection. This turn needs to be improved for pedestrian safety. The sidewalk should not be on only one side of the road, particularly in such a dangerous location for pedestrians to cross the road, just to have the sidewalk reappear only meters away.
