Hello, I am writing to request a pedestrian safety assessment of the marked crosswalk on East 10th Street, connecting North Woodbridge Drive and East John Hinkle Place in Bloomington. I live on North Woodbridge Drive and regularly use this crosswalk to reach East John Hinkle Place. I have serious concerns about pedestrian safety at this location, particularly given the volume of traffic traveling in both directions at approximately 40 mph. Although the crosswalk is marked, there are no pedestrian-activated warning lights to alert approaching drivers. At these traffic speeds, I believe the existing markings alone provide insufficient warning, creating an unnecessary risk for pedestrians, especially at night. I would like to formally request that the city evaluate installing Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) at this crossing. These pedestrian-activated flashing lights would provide motorists with additional warning when someone is attempting to cross East 10th Street. Please let me know whether the city can conduct a safety assessment at this location and what steps would be necessary to consider this improvement. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Work is being done in front of the animal shelter to widen the sidewalk. It looks amazing. The trouble is using the detour while this work is going on. It’s very hard/unsafe to cross the street there and is very unsafe to use the road. Tuesday October 13th I was able to use the detour to get to my destination. On my way home I was not, after 5pm. They blocked it while I was at my destination.

This is just an absolute cluster of problems. I feel afraid every time I have to drive there. There have been upwards of 7 new multi unit houses built there which has increased the density. Parking along the already extremely narrow street is erratic - often parked cars stick out enough that two cars cannot pass each other safely. Garbage cans from the new builds are left in the street making it even more congested. And now, there is a bus route including a bus stop right in the middle of it all. A bus and a car can’t use the road at the same time. This is all adjacent to a busy walking path coming up from campus near the student services building, where people are attempting to cross Jefferson into the Green Acres neighborhood without any crosswalk or signage for drivers to look out (and right next to a large tree that blocks being able to see them until they are in the street). There is a blind hill on Jefferson, right at the point where they are building yet another unit and often have the street further congested/blocked. There are multiple problems here and I have to hold my breath every day I use it. That poor bus driver. It is so many accidents waiting to happen. At the very least, it should be made to have parking on only one side to leave room for traffic. Thanks.

The streetlight at the northwest corner of Willis Drive and 17th Street is malfunctioning. Sometimes it doesn't work at all, while at other times it flickers or is dim. There are only a few occasions when it appears to function properly.
