I have no idea how many times I’ve complained about this light. I wish the head of this department lived out this way and had to wait through a quarter mile backup while the light switched back and forth without any cross traffic. Quit putting a band-aid on it and fix it permanently
About 5 minutes ago the traffic light was stuck on red in seemingly all 4 directions at the intersection of 17th and Madison/Kinser. One direction (east) may have had flashing red lights. We were all stuck for some time before people started going as if the lights were flashing red on all sides.
The traffic light at Bloomfield Rd (2nd Street) & Rolling Ridge Way is a problem during normal commuting hours (7:30am-8:30am & 4:30pm-5:30pm). In the morning, traffic comes to a crawl and is backed up from this intersection all the way to the exits of Highway 69, often blocking the Highway exits. The short trip between the Highway exits and this intersection would normally take less than 1 minute. During the morning commute hours, it takes 5+ minutes. A similar situation occurs in the evening. Westbound traffic comes to a crawl and is commonly backed up from this intersection to S Patterson Drive, or sometimes even farther. This traffic light is certainly the cause. After passing this light, the congestion is no where to be seen and traffic flows normally. My suggestion would be to alter the programming of this light, during these specific hours, to be much more heavily biased toward East-West traffic. Perhaps it could stay green for East-West traffic for 50% longer than standard, or similar.
Traffic signals are not working
Left turn arrow for northbound Walnut Street at Hillside intermittently cycles green when no cars are turning left onto West Hillside. This doesn't happen every cycle, but I notice it about once a week when going through the intersection.
The signal is letting 3 or 4 cars through and then changing to yellow. This is happening in all directions.
I don’t know how many times I’ve complained about this light. In the morning it backs up traffic to the interstate and in the evening it backs up to Landmark ave. It is not the result of Catalent traffic. The light cycles even if there is no cross traffic. When it does cycle it first lights the west bound turn light whether or not there is anyone in that lane. The local residents are beginning to believe this light is left broken as a form of punishment for opposing annexation
The timing of these signals is out of alignment with actual traffic. It appears time based and not based on triggers. The north/south light out of Catalent triggers all the time when there is no one there, stopping east/westbound traffic on Patterson. When cycling through, the left turn arrow for westbound traffic on Patterson always lights, even when there are no left turners. This means eastbound traffic on Patterson has a very limited window to proceed and traffic is backed up for no reason. Thank you!
The left lane turn signal from north bound Jordan Ave onto westbound 10th street always gets triggered even with no traffic in the left turn lane. (See also ureport #175403)
Left turn arrow on S. Walnut southbound for E. Hillside goes green every cycle regardless of whether there's a car on the loop in the left turn lane or not.
