Collector Street Traffic Management Program

The collector street striping reconfiguration policy was developed to address residents growing concerns about speeding on Bloomington's streets. The Council feels that many Bloomington collector streets were designed, at the time of construction, for volumes higher than are currently using them. Some research shows that wider driving area gives drivers the perception that they can drive faster, thereby resulting in faster driving speeds. The goal of reducing the drivable area with new striping is to give drivers more of a sense that they are traveling in a residential area and should maintain an appropriate speed.

Collector policy and process - revised 4/27/09

The collector street striping reconfiguration policies, procedures and schedules were adopted by the City Council at the April 25, 2005 meeting. According to the policy, collector streets will be reviewed for possible striping changes during their pavement management program (PMP) improvement year. The program is set up to perform the changes along with the PMP striping so there will be no additional costs to the residents and City.

Pubic Hearing - Nothing Scheduled 

2018 Collector Street "Virtual" Neighborhood Open House

The following roadway segments are tentatively scheduled to receive a bituminous overlay in 2018 (with no assessed cost to the adjacent property owners) and the city is considering changes to roadway striping configuration:
 

12th Avenue - E 82nd Street to American Boulevard

Bush Lake Road - Old Shakopee Road to W 110th Street 

W 110th Street - Bush Lake Road to Hampshire Avenue

As a resident in the neighborhood serviced by one of the collector streets listed above, you are invited to a Neighborhood Open House where information will be provided about potential striping and lane changes on these roadways. At the Open House City staff will have displays illustrating the striping/lane reconfiguration options for these street segments. Staff will also be available to answer questions regarding the policy, the goals and the proposed changes. Comment cards will be available for residents to leave feedback for the City staff and the City Council.
 

The city staff will seek approval of these changes at an upcoming public hearing during a City Council Meeting.  You will be notified by mail of this meetings time and date.
