College mall road and covenanter drive. Light flashing red.,signal not working
About 5:10 pm today (5 March) I stopped at the signal at Moore's Pike and College Mall Rd. I was waiting to make a westbound thru movement toward Hillside Ave. After two cycles wherein every other movement (including WB to SB) got a green, I still had not gotten the green light for a WB thru. Traffic had backed up the hill, out of sight, so I made a right turn when safe to do so, and took an alternate route home.
Three of my coworkers and I go to work at 6am and we get stuck waiting for the left arrow turn light on Patterson and 2nd to turn green. It takes almost 2 minutes before it will turn green.
Signal at intersection of N old SR 37 and N Walnut, which is part of the Cascades bike&ped path, does not ever give a 'walk' signal, even if the button is depressed. It just says out loud 'wait' and then doesn't ever show white/walk. The city's transportation plan says peds are the highest priority out of all transportation users, so consider making it good. The light should be in pedestrian recall mode, so that there is a 'walk' every phase whether someone touches the button or not. The default 'walk' should be long enough to cross that leg of the intersection. When the button is pressed, it should be the highest signal priority and car traffic should see an instantaneous yellow light, and then a red light should be displayed in both directions (all cars stop!) for long enough to cross both crossings (~150ft, so at *least* 60 seconds). There must be a 'no turn on red' for cars northbound on Walnut turning to east, because visibility there is poor. There should be a 'no turn on red' for cars westbound on old 37.
The audio indicators for blind people are not working on this intersection. A person who is blind tells me she has submitted this before and they fixed it, but it has gone out more than once and she's frustrated.
Light changes when there is nobody on Kimble Dr or at the exit to Harbour Freight. Light holds forever when nobody is there.
Left turn arrow on northbound Walnut at Hillside is cycling green for 30 seconds everytime, with no cars on the loop.
Walnut southbound left turn arrow onto Grimes east cycles green every time and there's rarely a car turning left. Plus the northbound left turn arrow for Grimes/Patterson doesn't stay green long enough causing traffic to back up almost to Hillside at times.
Cross walk signals for those walking never changes from red "stop - don't walk" light, even after pushing the button requesting a cross.
A tree branch is obscuring the yellow turn arrow on a traffic signal at 2nd and High. The traffic signal is for westbound traffic on 2nd Street. The signal itself is located on the western side of the intersection and is the southern (left when looking at the lights as traffic would) signal hanging there. It should be trimmed up.
