The eastbound left turn lane's green arrow is running every cycle, even though there's pretty much never any cars in that lane - it goes to a driveway. This causes westbound traffic on Adams/3rd to wait needlessly for their green signal. I am assuming that this left turn arrow operates from a trigger wire in the pavement.
The green left turn light coming out of the mall on the street between Fazoli's and BJ Brewhouse onto South College Mall Rd is inoperative. This causes the left turn lane to only get the yellow caution signal for a few seconds before the light goes red ( the main light issred if no one trips the signal to cycle from the straight ahead or right turn lane.) so then the left turners are sitting at the light until the right hand lane trips the (Main) signal to cycle to green.
Green Left turn signal bulb on IHOP side of street is burnt out.
Left turn green arrow to head south on college mall road from the westbound road into eastland plaza from college mall is dysfunctional
Green light for left turn signal arrow (when facing IHOP) does not work. Light cycles from red to yellow arrow (no green arrow turns on anymore).
Bloomington's traffic signal timing is, in general, inadequate. Traffic patterns in the city are highly variable, changing drastically as students arrive and leave with the university schedule and as new student housing is constructed. It would be wonderful if the city were to invest in a system which changes traffic signals in real time as a function of data collected from sensors at intersections. Surely there will be graduate students, postdocs, and faculty in the Luddy School eager to help out with a cool "smart city" project...
I think the traffic signal timing should be modified at the intersection of Country Club and Rogers. During afternoon rush hour (and presumably morning rush hour as well) traffic on Country Club has to wait through multiple light cycles. Traffic on Rogers backs up much less.
When headed west on Covenanter over college mall, the left turn green arrow is very faint and almost impossible to see in the daytime
The traffic light and pedestrian crosswalk lights are causing close calls with pedestrians. The green arrow for the turn lane and the walk sign come on at the same time. This is dangerous for pedestrians crossing the bypass as cars are not looking for pedestrians due to green arrow.
Southbound signal for Henderson does not turn green unless someone is in the left turn lane. Sat through several cycles where east, north and westbound traffic all went and south bound was pretty backed up. Thank you!
