CLOSED #101006210351

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
The traffic light here forces pedestrians to cross through turning traffic. It feels unsafe as a pedestrian. Also please add the third crosswalk so you are not forced to cross multiple streets in series to cross one street.

Intersection Of Everett St And N Beacon St, Allston, Ma
