Blown light corner RCA Park Dr and countryside
Blown street light corner countryside and rockport
Some of the street lamps along 10th Street and also Atwater have a strange, purple color that is kind of intense and actually a bit painful to look at. I think they could pose a traffic hazard at night.
traffic light at s patterson dr and s fairview st changes green to red in 10 second intervals
The street light it out and has been for weeks. That corner is very dark at night and feels unsafe as I walk home from work and cross that road in the dark on my late shift nights. I have had close calls with people not seeing me so they do a rolling stop rather than coming to a complete stop. Fixing the street light would be very helpful and appreciated.
The signal at this intersection was set for a number of years so that it was traffic activated. Recently, this has been changed so that that light switches to red on Patterson (for quite a long time!) even when there are no cars waiting on Fairview - which is almost all the time. This holds up traffic on Patternson, which often backs up, sometimes to a depth of six or seven cars, and occasionally enough that the last cars in line can't make it through the intersection until the next cycle of the light. The city did this a few years ago with this light, only to change the light back to traffic-activated status after a few months. Has the lesson of that time now been forgotten?? Time to go back to things the way they were a couple of months ago! Leave well enough alone, people!
When turning left off of Basswood Drive, if you are not there BEFORE the light turns green for anyone going straight/right at the same intersection, your left turn light stays red until the next cycle. It is so unnecessary and should be a yellow caution arrow like literally every other street light in existence.
Light pole has a broken plastic cover. This is not a duke light.
