Left turn signal at Rogers and 17th
seems to not be working if you are
turning west onto 17th from Rogers
I live nearby and often go down 17th
this way and the left turn arrow never seems to precede the regular green light for north-south traffic

On work days just before 8 am city work teams leave the garage at Henderson & Miller in mass headed for job sites. It is unfortunate that their timing coincides with a busy time for commuters adding to traffic woes. Could they leave 15 minutes earlier or later?

3rd / Jordan has flashing red on Jordan and flashing yellow on 3rd. This is very dangerous because 1) people on Jordan don't know it isn't a 4-way stop and 2) pedestrians can't get across the street. It should be flashing red for everybody.

The new traffic pattern at 3rd and Jordan (due to construction) is extremely dangerous. Traffic on Jordan has a flashing red light, traffic on 3rd a flashing yellow -- drivers on Jordan cannot tell that the traffic on 3rd doesn't stop. Not only is there a lot of confusion at this already very busy intersection, but people crossing the street can't see the yellow light at all and cannot cross safely!!

Corner of 3rd and Jordan has extremely erratic traffic pattern. Most drivers treat it as a four way stop but many don't. As a result, it is very difficult to judge when to proceed if traveling north and south on Jordan. In addition, if east/west is treated as a flashing yellow, you can sit for several minutes waiting to proceed north or south.

People either do not see the new stop sign placed at 10th and Smith Rd or are just ignoring it. I have nearly been t-boned coming on and off Smith onto 10th, and had people try to drive around me when turning right in the turn lane onto Smith from 10th because they don't understand why I am stopping. There is a sign on 10th indicating a new stop sign, but it does not seem like enough because people are just driving through it as if it's not there. I am not sure what else can be done. Maybe more signage indicating a new stop sign? A police presence enforcing it? An announcement in the newspaper? Something needs to be done because it has made the intersection much more dangerous (though if people noticed the sign it would actually improve the daily backups at that junction, so I do like the idea of the stop sign!). I don't want people getting tickets left and right obviously, but we need something else to indicate there is a new sign there. Thank you!
Best wishes,
