The light going north on walnut facing 4th st turns green for less than 10 seconds. It only allows one or two cars through. This is occurring at 6 am when there are few cars on the road
The signal at Rogers and Kirkwood has been flawed for some time now. The left arrow activates in all directions even when there is no one there to trip it. It slows down traffic significantly at a busy intersection.
My wife and I live at 515 W 3rd st, in Prospect Hill. I would like to request a simple upgrade to the functionality of the pedestrian signals at the S. Rogers st. and W. 3rd st. traffic interchange. I will reference the City of Chicago as a best practice. In Chicago, in almost every intersection with a traffic light, all pedestrian signals utilize the following sequence: a) When the light turns green, the white walk icon light actuates. b) When the pedestrian signal reaches the 30 second level (sometimes more or less than 30 seconds, depending on the overall duration of the light), the white walk signal changes to a red blinking don't walk icon and countdown timer, which counts down the remaining walk time. c) When the timer reaches 0, the blinking light changes to a full red don't walk icon. This coincides with the traffic light turning yellow. d) This functionality is in place 24/7/365. This functionality provides crucially important situational information to both drivers and pedestrians on the status of the traffic light. This is especially important as we somewhat frequently witness incidents of road rage at this intersection, as an unintended consequence of the no right turn on red signage that has been placed at this intersection. I am generally supportive of the no right turn on red signs, but the signage has definitely created this new issue. Because this functionality already exists at this intersection (in some pedestrian signals, at some times of the day), there should not be any material cost to make this change. It will require a technician to modify the code in the microprocessor that controls the lights. Please feel free to reach out to me if you would like to discuss further. Thank you.

Street signs for 2nd and Swain are switched / turned around
Street sign at intersection of Sheffield & Plymouth has apparently been hit by a car (45 degree angle--no pedestrian or traffic hazard however)
The pedestrian crossing signal switch on the SE corner of College Mall and Covenanter (N-S direction) cannot be pushed. It looks like the switch is stuck on.
I couldn't find a "street sign" option: On exiting the library parking lot, there needs to be a "one way" or "right turn only" sign. A "right turn only" sign could be placed on the same post as the "exit" sign, just to the right of where cars stop, but the driver would not see it when stopped. Or a "one way" sign could be placed across the street. A painted arrow on the pavement might help, but it would have to be repainted regularly.
Light at kinser and the by pass
My wife and I just moved into a new house at 411 E Wilson St, between Palmer and Dunn. We need street signs installed at the corner of Wilson and Dunn and Wilson and Palmer as soon as possible, as no one can find our house.
the protected left turn light from westbound patterson to south rogers is only long enough to let about 3 cars go through. if any cross traffic fails to stop before the light is red, sometimes no cars can proceed before the protected signal ends. please consider increasing the length of time the left turn light stays green.
