Traffic signal is not working since the last 4 days
I often bike north on Jordan avenue to 3rd St., then turn left onto 3rd with the traffic light. Before the recent construction, the left turn signal appeared to be on a timer, and now it seems to be activated by a metal-sensitive loop in the pavement. But so far I have been unable to trigger the left turn signal with my bicycle. I have been instructed to ride exactly on the wire, and I ride a steel frame bike from 1970, so it should have plenty of metal to be detected. Is there some way to make sure this traffic light actuator is sensitive enough to work for bicyclists as well as for cars?
Traffic Light on 45 at the Rural King/Sam's Club intersection is only working on a timer vice automatically sensing and responding to actual traffic conditions. Time Observed malfunction 0530 to 0630.
The stop light at Pete Ellis Drive/Range Road crossing 10th street has definitely changed for the worst. Going north from Pete Ellis to Range Road a car can sit several minutes in the morning with no traffic repeatedly on 10th. I actually watched a co-worker turn into McDonald's in front of me and then be a few cars behind me and go through the light when I did. I just sat over a minute with no traffic on 10th and watched a car back out of Fountain Park apartments, cross their big lot and make the 10th street light - and I still was sitting there and watched cars come over the east view and still make the light while I still waited. This light needs the timing changed or a better sensor.
Stop sign obscured by vegetation for North bound traffic on old SR 37.
The beacon on the "signal ahead" sign south of Atwater and Third is out and/or working very sporadically.
The street light is out and is in flash.
There is an accessibility issue at the street crossings where Pete Ellis Drive meets East Third Street. Particularly for a wheelchair user, this is a dangerous intersection. The pedestrian crosswalk buttons don't seem to work, and are difficult to get to.
I was at this intersection for a long time on the evening of Dec 26 and I think the light was not ever cycling. People were giving up and driving through the red light because it never turned green.
