- Description
- In the back bay area. The pedestrians signals should all go at the same time. There are many instances especially during rush hour that vehicles making turns... for example Berkeley and Boylston. The vehicles turning left onto Berkeley only one or two vehicle actually turn per cycle because of pedestrian crossing. Having the pedestrian signals all go at the same time would probably help alleviate some of that traffic in the back bay area. And other areas in the city ass well | Signal problem: [Pedestrian Signal]

Case Noted. The signal phasing at this location runs a concurrent pedestrian phase. While this phasing may impact turning vehicles it reduces the overall delay for vehicles on all approaches and also for pedestrians. Running an exclusive pedestrian phase at this location would increase the delay to vehicles on all approaches. BTD uses phasing where feasible as it allows for more time for pedestrians to cross and reduces overall delay to motorists.
