South-bound Kinser Pike yellow left-turn signal is not glowing
South-bound Kinser Pike yellow left-turn signal is not glowing
This is a light which depends on a sensor, not timed. The sensor on High street (I believe the north side) seems to be permanently activated. This has adversely affected traffic.
The signals do not switch the lights when traffic is stopped in an east -west direction but no traffic is going is traveling in the north-south direction. Either the sensors are not working or the electronics is at fault.
The traffic light at this intersection high st and hillside is not timed properly. When traveling east west, the light is very short and only allowed 8 to 9 cars to get through so the traffic is backing up very badly
2 young men at 6:30 this morning were taking down the Stop Sign at 2nd and Mitchell. I asked them to stop since I said taking it down would be dangerous. They said okay and seemed under the influence of influence. After I walked my dog, I returned to the corner and the sign was gone. This is clearly a danger issue. It is a 4-way stop but highly transited.
Stop sign next to 1902 Hawkesmoore (@ Nora Hill intersection) blocked by tree.
Driving westbound on Hillside at 9pm approaching Henderson, light was red. Stopped at light for 30 seconds and it cycled red for Henderson. East bound Hillside then turned green including the left turn arrow even though there were no cars at the light going east. I sat with three other cars going westbound for another minute while the eastbound light stayed green for no cars.
The East/West traffic light is only about 4 seconds long at Kinser and the 46 Bypass. About 4 or 5 cars can safely get through this intersection before a yellowish light. Recently, the turn lanes have been closed thus even fewer E/W bound cars can get through the intersection. Couldn't that light be changed to allow more time on green for E/W traffic to get through without having to wait thru multiple light changes?
Left turn sensor stuck on? Left turn arrow from eastbound Hillside onto northbound Henderson (in front of Feast) comes on every time regardless of whether a car is there. I commute through the area each day and it's been this way for quite a while. Thanks for all the good work you guys do.
Left turn sensor is stuck... Left turn arrow from eastbound hillside onto northbound Henderson always comes on. I commute through this area and have noticed this for quite a while now. Thanks for your help!
