Resident called this afternoon stating the light at Patterson/Fairview is not working correctly. It cycles through at odd times and does not seem to follow the sensors in the road.
East bound Patterson green timing too quick to allow traffic flow
When you are driving on Patterson toward Rodgers St., the light at Fairview turns red when there is no one at the cross street, Fairview. You then have to wait for a delayed signal, then you get a green light. 3-4 cars can make it through the light, and it turns red again with no traffic on the cross St., Fairview. Patterson is the main street. Why is the light turning red with no one on Fairview, slowing up traffic ON Patterson? This has been going on for a month!!!
This light is on a timer that is disproportionate to the traffic that flows on patterson. It is constantly backed up to rogers during high traffic times and is green while no cars need to exit fairview.
Light sensors need calibrated. Stops Patterson traffic with no traffic on Fairview.
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!
The stop light on weekends is messed up. It only stays green for about 6-7 seconds for traffic using Patterson. Changes without anyone even pulling up on either side of Fairview
Early morning hours light will remain red and won't be triggered by waiting traffic.
