Traffic signal completely out at Third, High and Bryan on the east side
Traffic signal completely out at Third, High and Bryan on the east side
Today around 2:00 PM, the railroad signal was on, but the signal for eastbound traffic on 10th street never switched to green. Westbound traffic on 10th St got the green light and traffic turning left from eastbound 10th St got a green light, but traffic going straight east on 10th St never got a green light. I had to turn left onto the bypass to get out of there. Others just went through the red light.
South facing "WALK" light is out
North/South Fee Lane at 17th St. Left turn lanes on Fee do not trigger the turn signal.
Cars speed excessively along Huntington between Hillside and Miller, as there isn't any stop sign. I would request speed bumps or a stop sign half way.
Pedestrian crossing buttons on pole at E 3rd & Woodscrest light inaccessible to power chair due to soft surface (mulch) between sidewalk and pole. This is a common type problem with, for example, grass surface between walk and poles at Country Club & S Rogers, or sheer dropoff between walk and button at Kinser & 46 (yeah, "tell it to the State." -- why won't you?)
The traffic signals at 3rd & Bypass / College Mall Rd could use some reprogramming. Westbound traffic turning south onto College Mall gets backed up at the signal just to the south, to the extent that vehicles are blocking the intersection waiting to turn left on red. Today it was bad enough that eastbound traffic was unable to proceed through an entire cycle. Not one single vehicle got through. Also, some vehicles clearly enter on yellow (or even on red) to turn left, even though the driver can easily see that he will be unable to proceed through the intersection before the signal goes red. A camera to catch such violations would be great.
Crossing 11th under the train bridge is dangerous. Vehicles cannot see the pedestrian crossing on the other side of the bridge. We should have flashing pedestrian lights that a pedestrian can activate when crossing 11th on either side of the bridge. Lights similar to 4th and Rodgers would be perfect.
Turn signal from Hillside (heading west) to turn left (north) onto High Street is not illuminating.
Please decrease the the amount of time that the green light is on for the Rolling ridge / twin lakes light side. I'm my opinion a 20 second time frame is a better time Please and thank you.
