The new roundabout at S. Sare and E Rogers Rd. is proving to be quite a challenge for motorists. Many people fail to yield before entering roundabout and I have seen drivers literally going backwards through it. Every 3rd to 4th time I am in the roundabout someone fails to yield and I am forced to swerve, slam on brakes to avoid them. Entrances to round about need traffic enforcement and/or more signs, etc.
The detectors on Fee Lane and the Bypass do not work. One has to wait the full 80 seconds at the Fee Lane light even when there is no traffic on the Bypass.
Because of the construction happening on S. Walnut I was recently stopped for almost ten minutes at the intersection of Walnut and Second. This is a road I use daily and I am accustomed to some delays. However, this evening (Thursday, 10/11/12 at about 6:40) the construction crew parked a cement mixer diagonally across the intersection making any driving impossible. There was no warning that this was taking place and no attempt to redirect traffic. After sitting through around 7 light cycles my boyfriend approached the driver at the head of the line and asked if they would mind turning right and going oh of their way so that he cars lined up with us could make our way around he impass. In the future I would suggest scheduling these events so temporary detours may be set up. Expecting citizens to spontaneously adjust to major construction set ups is unreasonable.
Gordon Pike between Walnut and Rogers St has been repaved, but not striped and it's hazardous at night, especially when it rains. When will it be striped?
Traffic on Patterson crossing Rogers is backed up. The East/West light has always been too long, but with Tapp closed, it is even worse. North/South traffic could have a longer green without interrupting other lights.
Eastbound 2nd st/left turn intersection us37 north. People are running red light as if they are in eastbound 2nd st lane when they are in the left turn lane. You have four traffic signals, two for left turn and two for eastbound. There should only be three and the people are confused on the lanes to go eastbound.There are a lot of last minute decsions being made that potential could lead to wrecks.Traffic signs,markings,lights are needed as well as engineering of interesection.
There are now two left turn lanes at the traffic light that directs you to 37 North on second street. Numerous vehicles are going through the middle lane which is a left turn lane also. Traffic trying to move over to the left lane after being in the far right lane is having a difficult time as they do not know if the vehicle next to them is going to turn left as they should or just go through the lane. I live at Basswood Apartments and find it bothersome when the vehicle goes through the light and I am trying to get over in the left lane to go home. I didn't know how this could be remedied as the two signs by the two traffic light say "left turn only" and have arrows. Some vehicles slow down and just go through it when it is red to turn left and green for the right lane to go. There is going to be an accident.

This intersection is getting out of control. Its an accident waiting to happen. People are making up their own rules: driving around cars, forming turning lanes where there shouldn't be (the city's somewhat-recent painting of diagonal lines on Pete Ellis & 10th in front of the Woodbridge Station brick sign is totally ineffective), and drivers turning left to head east on 10th from N Pete Ellis Drive think they have the right of way when confronted with drivers traveling due north on Pete Ellis. This all happens at the intersection of 10th & Pete Ellis. Improvements must be made. Please.
The Stull Ave street sign at the intersection of Stull and 1st St is missing. I first noticed it's absence Thursday 13 Sept.
