Old state road 37 and walnut st.
Old state road 37 and walnut st.
Traffic light at Kirk wood and Adams stays on green for the west bound traffic bound traffic on Kirkwood for about 3 minutes while the other lanes back up. Especially Adams which backs up from Kirk wood to the B trail in the morning
Union and 10th - north bound left turn light from union never triggered until car pulled up in right northbound lane.
The pushbutton to cross south walnut at Allen Street is broken
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.
The pedestrian crossing signal on the northwest corner of S. Rogers and W. Patterson is not operative.
Northbound side of Rogers Street and Country Club Drive (cars waiting between that nasty abandoned gas station and the country club fence): the west-bound left turn onto Country Club green arrow lights up regardless there being any cars in the left-turn lane. I see this various times of day (when I'm in the north-bound lane on Rogers). Perhaps there's no sensor in the road, but thought I'd bring it up.
I was stopped at the intersection of Woodlawn and 17th street at the new light. I was attempting to make a left turn to proceed west on 17th. It was after midnght. I there was no east-west traffic at all which had the green. I waited for 4 minutes and no change. This intersection controller needs to be checked to make sure it will switch the opposing traffic to green upon sensing a vehicle promptly if there is no east-west traffic.
The crosswalk indicators for 10th street aren't working correctly. If you are on the north west corner of 10th and Fee and push the button to cross 10th street to the south the voice will say that the 10th street cross light is on and the indicator light won't come on. It will do this even if the cross light says don't walk and traffic on 10th street has a green light. It does the same thing if you are on the south west corner and want to walk north. It has been this way for a while, but it wasn't a problem because 10th was blocked at that intersection.
Do not walk sign on southwest corner of this intersection has a burned out light.
