Traffic signal is not working since the last 4 days
The northbound traffic signal at Rogers and Patterson/Grimes Ln seems awfully short all of a sudden. During morning rush hour, around 5 cars can get through going north. The east-west signal seems to be around 3 times as long. Has something been changed recently? Thanks for any information you can provide.
I seem to remember that when the traffic light was installed on Walnut Street at Smith Avenue it should have only turned red for Walnut when activated by pedestrian or vehicular traffic on Smith Avenue. I don't know if that designation changed or if there is an equipment malfunction, but for the past few weeks the light has been cycling on it's own with no traffic of any kind present on Smith Avenue.
Pedestrian signal not working
The digital sign that shows how fast you are going near Rogers/Binford schools has not been working for a couple of days. It is the one just past the intersection of High and Second, if you are going towards Woodcrest.
We were traveling east on 10th St. this evening, approaching the bypass on the east side. While waiting for the red light to change to green, the train gate on the bypass lowered and a train approached also from the east. When a train is crossing the bypass, the light rightly does not allow traffic through from the north, as it would soon have nowhere to go. This is good. BUT it also did not allow our lane to travel through the intersection going east! I know there is no separate right-turn signal there to stop people from turning south onto the bypass, but it is not logical to stop all traffic going east as well. And besides, the light DOES allow westbound traffic on 10th Street to BOTH continue west AND turn south onto the bypass -- even though there is a separate signal there for the south-turn lane -- and those cars then are stopped by the crossing gate. This is really illogical, and should be remedied.
Light is still malfunctioning. Left turn arrow from northbound Sare to west turn onto E. Moore's Pk cycles when there are no cars and stays green for well over a minute.
This light turns red for the major thoroughfare (Patterson) almost every time I travel that road, despite the fact that there are NO cars coming from the other direction (Adams). I can't understand a light dedicated solely to a school and college apartments to the detriment of the main through traffic, especially when no one is sitting at the light. It needs to have road sensors, not be set to a timer.
SOUTH WALNUT ST PIKE AND WINSLOW RD INSTERSECTION: WIRES HANGING IN FRONT OF SIGNAL. CAN'T SEE WHEN TURN ARROW COMES ON
Light for Rogers going north only turns green if the left arrow is tripped.
