Bloomington, Indiana – The City of Bloomington is inviting residents to participate in shaping planned safety improvements along 10th Street between Morton Street and Indiana Avenue. As part of the city’s Safe Streets for All initiative, officials are looking for public feedback to help guide enhancements aimed at reducing collisions, improving pedestrian and cyclist access, and making travel safer and more efficient for all users.
The 10th Street corridor has been identified as a high-priority area based on crash data, traffic flow, and ongoing safety concerns for pedestrians and cyclists. With significant daily use by motorists, students, and local residents, city planners are working to ensure that future improvements address the needs of all commuters.
“This is an early opportunity for residents to help shape improvements to one of Bloomington’s busiest corridors. Your voice matters in creating a safer, more accessible city for all,” officials emphasized. Community input will play a key role in selecting initial safety measures and shaping future design phases.
Residents are encouraged to participate in several ways. They can visit the official project website to stay informed, complete an online survey to share their thoughts, or attend the first public meeting scheduled for Thursday, April 3, 2025, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at Mr. Copy (501 E 10th St, Bloomington). City staff will be available at the meeting to provide details, answer questions, and collect feedback from attendees.
The project team hopes for strong community engagement to ensure the final design reflects the needs and concerns of those who use the corridor daily. Updates and any potential changes to meeting details will be posted on the project website, keeping the public informed throughout the planning process.
As Bloomington continues to invest in safer streets, residents have the chance to directly influence these improvements by sharing their experiences and ideas. Whether walking, biking, driving, or using public transportation, every perspective matters in making 10th Street a safer, more accessible route for all.
