It appears the light is now changing to green for southbound vehicles at Bryan/High even if there's no one sitting there. It used to only turn green if someone was waiting or had tripped the sensors. This is causing backup traffic along 3rd Street and delaying northbound High Street traffic from turning.
This light is on a timer, rather than sensors, so people just sit waiting even when there's no traffic coming from other directions. It's especially annoying when the left turn arrows engage when no one is there. I've reported this light for about 2 years now. Very inconvenient and frustrating to sit and sit when no traffic is coming from other directions.
Pretty sure this light used to be on a sensor and now it seems to be on a timer. The past else real Sundays I've driven through some time between 10:15am and 1:30pm the east-west has turned red with zero cars in the north or south sides of the intersection. And no vehicles have triggered it but then turned right onto Tapp. With much less traffic on Sundays it'd be great to have it (back?) on a sensor.
The light at Tapp Rd and Deborah Dr has been triggering to green for Deborah Drive with no traffic present. It's stops Tapp Rd for 40 seconds for no reason. Can this be fixed when it's only green when there is traffic on Deborah vs randomly for no reason?
The traffic light at Walnut Street and South Drive had been going to green for South Drive for no reason for weeks. It makes Walnut red for 50 seconds while cars back up on Walnut and there is no one on South Drive. It's ridiculous. Go fix it. Make it stay green on Walnut.
Traffic signal turns approximately every 20 seconds no matter if there are any vehicles trying to enter Tapp Road from Deborah Dr. Something has changed with this configuration. It used to be that the Deborah Drive light only changed when there were cars waiting to turn. Backs up traffic unnecessarily
I'd like to recommend a left turn arrow signal at 3rd and Washingtonbe added. When turning left onto Washington, headed west, there are long waits and backups. Buses, police vehicles, and more vehicles turn there to take Washington St. south and new traffic from the convention center will compound this problem. Hoping you'll consider adding this to the current traffic light.
The signal at the intersection of S. Walnut and South Dr registers nonexistent traffic from South Dr, continuously disrupting north-south traffic on Walnut St.
The traffic signal for southbound traffic on Rogers heading to the intersection with 2nd Street is a mess. Why is there no left turn arrow? Why is the light only 18 seconds from the time it turns green to when it turns red again? The detour for College Ave. being closed to southbound traffic goes onto Rogers south to east on 2nd, yet this is the best setup we have? An 18 second traffic signal with no left turn arrow? Brilliant.
Light at W 2nd st and S Adams st is out due to power outage. Duke energy is aware but needs someone to direct traffic in the meantime.
