The Bloomington City Council will consider looking into improving traffic flow throughout the city. One system helps emergency vehicles, snow plows, and city buses get a green light to make traffic easier to navigate. Another would help vehicles move through Bloomington more efficiently after events or during heavy traffic.
A formal proposal has not been put together, but, if Aldermen show interest in the proposals, city staff will move forward with developing a strategic plan and looking at how much the systems will cost. Council members will also vote on a five year Transportation Improvement Plan for the Twin Cities and hear the annual fire and EMS report from Fire Chief Brian Mohr.
