The bump outs that have been added to Morningside Drive need to have reflective paint or some other sort of marking that can be seen both during the day and at night. My father pulled into town last night from NM (his first moment of moving to Bloomington!), and ran into one of the bump outs. The result was that he blew two tires. All of the bump out curbs already have many black tire marks on them, which is an indication that he is by far not the first person to make contact. I urge the city to add paint or something else that will draw attention to these, so that this doesn't keep happening.

I sent in an earlier report (uReport Case #188352) about the traffic issue at the corner of High Street and East Maxwell Lane but might not have put the corner in the body of the message. The issue is that north/south cars regularly don't stop at the stop sign, endangering the many walkers on Maxwell Lane. It may be that bushes on the northwest corner need to be trimmed, but it also may take more than that to resolve the problem.

new Greenway bump outs are fine. anyone hitting them is clearly going too fast and not paying enough attention. don't add unnecessary light pollution with more reflectors. people need to look

Hello, there is a massive issue with drivers running red lights and stop signs in this city. I have marked a particularly bad intersection (Madison and 11th), however this issue is city-wide. The included intersection has a wall on the bridge that prevents vehicles from seeing around the corner to 11th street, which often means that people just roll right through the stop sign. I've been almost T-boned at this intersection multiple times, and I genuinely fear I may die there some day. I have already been hit once by someone ignoring traffic laws on Third Street, and have almost been hit on foot and in my vehicle countless times downtown. It has gotten to the point where I am afraid to travel around the city. There should be traffic cameras on the stop lights, and more aggressive fines to deter these people casually ignoring safety and traffic laws. I understand that it is hard to enforce stop signs, however I have witnessed (on multiple occasions) police patrol vehicles allowing people to run right through 4-way stops, and some even do it themselves. People are learning that there are absolutely no consequences for driving recklessly around the city, and it has gotten noticeably worse. Please, consider taking action about the extremely unsafe traffic situation in our city.

I am interested in having a pedestrian walkway that will cross at the north end of our parking lot. This is the driveway that is directly across from Starbucks. The Excel Center is a school for adults and we have several that take the bus. We also have students in wheelchairs that are using the bus system. There isn't a safe way to get across the street directly from our driveway across from Starbucks to the bus stop. Is it possible to have someone come and look or can we discuss a safe way for our students to cross. Because we are an all day campus, we also have students that cross the street for lunch. Recently, the director and I went out to look to see how easy it is to get across to the bus stop and we had a very difficult time. Can this be looked into further or a pedestrian button to be pushed with flashing lights for crossing? Similar to the bike trail across busy roads have is what I am thinking.
