Traffic Signals

S. Rogers st. and w 3rd st.

Case Date:
4/24/2025

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.

Sidewalk & Curb Complaints

S High Street between E Meadow Bluff Ct and Wimbleton

Case Date:
4/24/2025

A year has passed since I wrote this (closed case #188144): 'The orange barriers along the sidewalk on S High Street between Wimbleton and E Meadowbluff Ct still have not been removed and remain a big eyesore. I was told that Duke Energy needs to do something there before they can be removed. I bet it has been 2 years now that those barriers have been there. Isn't it time that Duke did what they need to do in order for them to be removed?! The, by now faded, barriers are still there a year later. When will this eyesore disappear?

Traffic Signals

258 E Law Ln

Case Date:

This location would benefit from pedestrian crossing signs. Pedestrians are often stuck in the intersection while the light changes for vehicular traffic because they do not have enough notice of the traffic signal change.

Street & Traffic Signs

brown st

Case Date:
4/22/2025

There are no signs on Coolidge or Brown streets by the Broadview Learning Center and Bloomington Graduation School building indicating it is a school or reducing speed limits. BGS is an alternative high school in MCCSC, but the students are entitled to the same protections as any traditional high school. Please remedy this inequity.

Street & Traffic Signs

1st & Rogers

Case Date:

The north & southbound stop signs are mounted on the high sides of retaining walls (seems this might be recent) and the height of them is too much relative to the driver's eye. The position of the sign northbound is also obstructed by a tree. This seems to be exacerbated by the fact that the northbound approach is on a hill. A stop ahead sign might also be helpful to emphasize the stop condition. Thank you.
