2 signs on N. Walnut St. just north of W. 15th St. on the west side of street are twisted and/or leaning. one sign is the one way sign and I couldn't see the face of the other sign needing repair.
The left lane that used to go straight through on college avenue past the Marriott near 3rd street has now stopped and the city has placed these large curbs that jut out into the street. I have seen several cars run into them, slam on their breaks and close calls and accidents there. who is making these decisions to place medians and curbs that narrow the street access. the city of bloomington is becoming very difficult to access in a car. they have made it hard to see the roads at night. another area is the median they placed on 10th street near the bypass. I have seen people swerve to miss it and find the narrow road to access 10th going to campus. with all of the visiting parents and travelers that come to the city and campus, you would think the engineers would widen roads and make things more accessible instead of causing areas where accidents are more likely to happen. especially there on college avenue across from the convention center.
Stop sign on west side of 14th and Dunn is missing
A lot if cars still go east bound on smith between walnut and Washington Dangerous situation with the school there
Street sign damage.
New paint on 3rd St is already beginning to chip away.
Hi! We live on South Banta Avenue, and because the road is on a hill, and also because it provides a shortcut between Tapp Road and Ralston, we routinely see cars charging up and down the hill as fast as they can go. (Today we watched a truck moving uphill actually pull over to one side and make a complete stop to allow a sedan to shoot downhill past it, still accelerating.) This is terrifying, as we have two young children, one of whom is still under two years old. We routinely bike with the kids in tow, and the most frightening part of our entire journey is the short time we have to bike up or down our own street. There have been two accidents at the corner of Tapp and Banta within the past week, and a neighbor's cat was run over recently as well. I'm not sure what a workable solution would be, whether posted speed limit or children at play signs would effectively change motorist behavior. There are numerous families with children in the neighborhood, and since most of Banta Ave has neither sidewalk nor curb, children trying to move from their homes even to the neighborhood park at the Broadview Learning Center are in considerable danger--this is true throughout much of the Broadview neighborhood area. As for South Banta Avenue, I would love to see a few speed bumps put in. I'd even welcome a few giant potholes. Seriously. I hope that the intersection of Tapp and Rockport is scheduled to become a traffic circle in time, which I hope will alleviate this problem eventually. But in the meantime, I would appreciate any feedback as to what might be possible for our street, and if there is anything that we can do. Best, Kate Schramm 2706 S. Banta Ave Bloomington
This message is not really a Traffic-Related Complaint, but a request for additional street signage. We live at 2750 E. Buttonwood Lane (south-west corner of intersection of S. Sare Road and E. Buttonwood Lane), at the start of the construction of the Sare/Rogers roundabout project. Since the construction was completed, we have noticed a very substantial increase in the number of vehicles turning around in our driveway. There used to be several each week (that we knew of when we happened to see them), but now there are sometimes half dozen or more vehicles every day that use our driveway to turn around. At times, we are even standing in the driveway. Because the yellow sign indicating there is no outlet is so far from Sare Road (It
Is there any way to have
Hello, I just moved to this neighborhood. Our house is the first house on the street from the main. There is a problem in this street in terms of traffic. There is no sign, the curb in the middle of road makes the left turn and right turns so hard that causes accidents. I am here for a month and have been witnessed at least 4 cases where I thought there was an accident. Please call me so I can explain this situation.
