- Description
- Dangerous crossing. Pedestrians are crossing while drivers can turn. I realize that both have a green light. It would be good if traffic light for vehicles did not turn green at the same time as pedestrians cross. When there is a lot of traffic in the afternoon drivers do not want to stop. Also, in the past I was told this is street/crossing is under state jurisdiction. So unsafe!

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.
