The road closed barricade on Rockport (traveling southwest) and Rogers is too much in the road that buses and other large vehicles are having difficulty turning the corner from southbound Rogers onto Rockport when cars are at the intersection (on Rockport) waiting for the light. It is assumed that vehicles need to be up at the intersection in order to trip the light for Rockport travelers.
Despite the closure, the road is heavily traveled due to the various neighborhoods and Summit Elementary (summer school?). Being a resident of the Adams Hill neighborhood, I travel through this intersection daily. If the barricade can be moved off the road more, that would be an easy fix. However I like that it makes it obvious to travelers that the road is closed, as I do not want even more traffic through our neighborhood than we already have.
My suggestion is to alter the light-trip indicators. If the cars traveling northeast on Rockport can be further back to trip the light, it would allow cars to weave through the barricades in single file when it is their turn. This also means there should be a "No Turn on Red" for southbound Rogers.
A solution would also need to allow for those in the neighborhood across Rogers to come through the light onto southbound Rockport. The traffic from that direction is minimal. My thought for those traveling from that direction would be to have their side trip individually and the lights would need to be green one direction at a time.
If the closure was only for a month or two, it would not be much of an issue. However with the closure going until near the end of the year and school starting in August, this intersection will need addressed as the traffic (buses and parents) to and from Summit Elementary is quite measurable.
Thanks for your consideration.

If possible, I would like to see the sidewalk on the south side of East 2nd Street (between Highland Ave and Ballantine) made available for walking. There are big bushes that perpetually extend far into the sidewalk and no one is able to walk or run on it. Thank you!

There is people in yellow jackets that are blocking the road but standing around talking. Doing absolutely nothing. This is what I pay for. Do your job. Quit standing around making 5 times what I make. You also pick the dumbest time to start at a street light, a busy as hell street light to just stand around talking. While people are trying to make money, but are being blocked while you assholes are making mint standing around doing NOTHING. And then being jackasses while doing it. DO YOUR JOB.

Often cars traveling west on 3rd St and turning south onto College Mall Rd crowd into the intersection as their light is turning yellow and then red. They then block the intersection so cars traveling East on 3rd St can’t proceed because they are essentially parked in the intersection. Today at about 1730 these cars blocked the intersection for almost the entire green light for those traveling East on 3rd St. My suggestion is to station an officer there and ticket every motorist who blocks the intersection.
