closed: Submission Received #213157

Nuisance Lights:

Other: The light at West Tapp Road and South Deborah Drive consistently changes to red for the cars on Tapp and remains red for an extended period of time, even when there are no pedestrians or cars coming from Deborah. This happens often enough to where over 50% of my drives have an extended period of waiting at this light, leading to increased fuel consumption, brake wear, and frustration.

Responded to resident and explained that staff will review the signal because recent adjustments were intended to reduce unnecessary stops on Tapp Road.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We recently made adjustments at this intersection intended to address this issue, so Tapp Road should not regularly be stopping for an extended period when there is no side-street or pedestrian demand. We’ll take another look at the signal operation and make sure it is functioning as intended.
