The stop signs at this intersection are rather confusing because Indiana Avenue is a two-lane one-way street. It can be difficult to determine who has the right of way quickly enough to avoid interrupting the flow of traffic. Also, I have seen drivers ignore the stop signs on Indiana on several occasions. I think this intersection needs a stoplight.
The intersection of Burks Drive and Walnut Street needs to be crossed by pedestrians and cyclists fairly often, but there is lots of high speed traffic on that road. Pedestrians coming from the residential areas around Burks have no way to safely cross Walnut Street. The sidewalk on the east side of walnut is currently closed, but it is missing several sections even when it is open, so you can't even walk along Walnut to the crossing at Rhorer Road. This problem will be exacerbated by the new library branch. Residents east of Walnut will have no way to safely and easily reach the library except by car. There needs to be a light and crosswalk of some sort installed so that it is passable.
At this and other intersections along the bypass, there is not sufficient signage for cyclists and pedestrians using the sidepath. The "walk" sign only turns on when you press the button, instead of automatically turning on with the green light. And because of the insufficient signage, drivers seem unaware that there is a side path, and frequently block bike/pedestrian traffic and make dangerous turns into people entering the crosswalks.
As 10th street crosses SR46 to the east, it goes from 2 lanes to 1. There is one sign indicating that the right lane ends. However the left lane curves as though it ends. Since I was nearly in an accident the other day because of this confusion, I would like to know which lane ends. I would also like additional signage added to reduce that danger. If it is the right lane that ends, perhaps that could be marked as a right-turn only lane.
Currently there are no "zebra stripe" crosswalk markings at the crosswalk on the west side of Third and Jordan. This lack of a clearly marked crosswalk results in pedestrians crossing with the light, but several yards from the intersection where the lighting isn't as good at night. As an IU Campus Bus operator, this concerns me as it could result in a bus-pedestrian collision. I ask that you consider adding pavement markings on the west side of 3rd and Jordan that clearly shows the location of the crosswalk. Thank you!
Bloomington Muni Code 15.24.020 lists the speed limit on Indiana as 30, however this sign just north of 10th states "Speed Limit 25." I wonder how many erroneous tickets have been issued on this stretch of road.
This sign has been partially knocked over.
Speed limit sign on Atwater approx 100 yards east of Woodlawn appears to be unsecured at the bottom. It's angled off to the side. Sorry couldn't get a picture.
Some of the crosswalk signs at the crosswalk near Jordan Garage were removed recently, presumably by the city. One of those signs had our bus stop sign on it. Can we have that back? Also, just curious as to why the crosswalk signs were removed since there are several new crosswalks on Jordan Avenue without any signage at all now. Thank you.
No clearance sign on south side of Fess railroad underpass.
