Traffic Signals:

Other: I have reported this light at S. Walnut and E. South Dr. numerous times. The City needs to finally fix it. The light triggers for South Drive on its own, a phantom vehicle or pedestrian. Then, the light is red for Walnut in both directions for 45-50 seconds. Traffic backs up on Walnut, all so no one can proceed on South Drive because no one is there to use the light. This light used to only go to green for South Drive if someone was there in a vehicle or pushed the pedestrian button. That broke down earlier this year and continues to be a significant issue that the City does not seem to address. Why would Walnut not be a higher preference as a major north/south road?

Assigned to: John Garzee

Problem Type: Signal is Malfunctioning
