CLOSED #101004016595

Case Noted. Thank you for your comments about your concerns regarding the use of concurrent walk sequencing at this location. Please be assured that the first priority of the Boston Transportation Department is working to provide safe streets for all users. Over half of BTD operated traffic signals utilize concurrent walk operation as it improves pedestrian compliance with walk signals. This type of walk signal operation is consistent with pedestrian signal operation throughout the country. We will evaluate this location to confirm that the operation is consistent with current BTD Engineering guidelines for use of this type of pedestrian signal sequence.

Description
Constiuents states that he would like BTD to change the signals at most intersections, it should not turn green at a right turn while pedestrians are also given the right of way. It is just dangerous because sometimes people come out of nowhere while the vehicle is turning. It would be best to let the pedestrians go and then have the light turn green. |
