Stop Sign laying on the ground, 13th and Woodlawn
Check left turn signal 10th and college. Turning left from 10th. If single car the left turn signal seldom triggers.
Green arrow lights up when no cars in turn lane
The pedestrian signals at 10th and Fee were not in sync with the voice commands at approximately 11:15 this morning. I am not sure if this is an issue that has happened more than once, but I am concerned for any negative consequences for people who have visual impairments that can prevent them from knowing when to cross without accurate voice signals. The command said it was okay to cross about 45 seconds before the light changed while several cars were westbound on 10th.
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.
Rogers & Country Club light: 2 situations affect me and 1 doesn't. I don't know what's going on on the sides of the intersection I'm not on, so maybe it's more than these 3 issues. I'm there around 7:50 am on weekdays. There is a long line of backed up eastbound traffic, probably 3-4 light cycles to get through. It doesn't affect me. These next two affect me. Around 7:45 - 8:00 am (maybe earlier) there has begun to be long backed up northbound traffic. I'm guessing it's related to Gordon Pike closure as the back-up just restarted this week with this new closure of Gordon (it was an issue with the former closure but has been MUCH better with Gordon Pike opening). I'd guess it's 3-4 light cycles to get through but I'm turning west so I can get into the left-turn lane within 1 - 2 cycles. Third situation is how backed up eastbound is at 5:15-5:30 pm (maybe later, too) on weekdays. It takes about 4 light cycles to get to the green light.
the traffic light at the corner of 2nd street and high street needs fixing. the turn arrow going south (coming from the east) always engages, even with no cars in the turn lane. and it stays for a long time. this has happened several times in the past.
The walk light on the northeast corner of 7th and Walnut is out.
Traffic light at 10th and Union gives Union Street 50 seconds of green light time when it always has lighter traffic loads than Tenth Street. 10th Street East and West receives 20 seconds of green light time....opposite setup compared to what street car volumes are. Light needs to be the opposite timing of what it is currently
