Deskripsyon
Heading north bound on 92 st to west bound 100 ave on the advance green arrow (with red ball is on). Then the arrow turns yellow (red ball is on), then the yellow arrow goes off (red ball is still on) and then all green. To see the red light on after the yellow arrow, is a shock as I'm part way through the intersection and then I'm panicking to decide whether to continue or stop in the middle of the intersection.
I noticed that this is not the same as the Ernie's intersection (100 st & 116 Ave). There, after the yellow arrow, it goes to green light. The 92 st/100 ave intersection is a set up for a traffic collision. Why the difference between these two intersections?

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
The signal operation that you mention at 92 St is absolutely intentional. It is recommended practice to have a brief “all-red” period at the conclusion of a turning movement to facilitate clearance of the intersection prior to giving the green to conflicting straight-through traffic.
Where the problem lies is not at 92 St, but at the other intersection you mentioned – 116 Ave/100 st. The timings (for the time being) are still those previously configured by Alberta Transportation, and in the North and South directions they neglected to include this buffer. This oversight has been corrected.
