    One of the green lights is flicking very badly.
  • 1–5 Ellis Rd Swampscott MA 01907, United States - Swampscott
    The Ellis road/paradise road light needs to be reviewed. Specifically the trees blocking the light on the southbound side until the very last second. It could be why there are sooo many cars that run this light even after it turns red!
  • 120 Paradise Rd Swampscott MA 01907, United States - Swampscott

    The sequence at this light of off, and needs a review. After Route 1A has a red light, Ellis Rd should then have the green light. Instead, the pedestrian walk light is on, every time.

    Also, one of the Green Lights is out at this intersection. It is one facing 1A north.

    Traffic Light at High School frequently turns red when no cars or pedestrians are exiting the high school. When folks are exiting the high school, the light does not appear to be synchronized with the Burpee Street light. Please review the timing of these two lights, and in conjunction with the Burrill St light.
  • Essex St @ Stetson Ave Swampscott, MA 01907, USA - Swampscott

    After being fixed for all of one week, the crossing light at the corner of Stetson and Essex is *again* broken. Will it take a traffic fatality of an elderly person, kid on a bike, or mother pushing a stroller with her child to compel the town to implement a permanent fix that involves complete replacement of the light infrastructure? this is one of the busiest and most dangerous intersections in the town. how much time and money does it take to prioritize fixing this problem when there is precedent all over town to replace crossing lights - particularly on Humphrey Street and the wealthier sections of town. This is not a new problem!

    Please do not just forward this message to the "contractor that services Swampscott's traffic lights because clearly this cover for "not my problem". What person at the DPW is responsible and when will there be action taken?

    If Swampscott would like to continue shirking responsibility, please name contact information for a state or other agency who can better assist us.

    Traffic light still not working properly. School has started and there is an elementary bus stop on Essex. Very dangerous intersection. Can the town at least provide a crossing guard?
  • Vantage Terr Swampscott MA 01907, United States - Swampscott
    Lights are out and blinking

    This pedestrian cross light has been out for months.
  • 306 Essex Street Swampscott, MA, 01907, USA - Swampscott
    The light at the pedestrian crossing is not working again and has not been working for some time. Thanks

    Both of the lights coming out of the CVS plaza, and the Chipotle plaza are very short. It took me 5 traffic lights to get out of the Chipotle side (to go straight).
    Why is there a left turn arrow if it's never green... goes directly to blinking yellow. It would be more convenient to let the cvs plaza exit for some time, then the Chipotle plaza, then back to paradise road. Today sitting in traffic there was no one going through the lights at paradise, but a good size line coming out of cvs and Chipotle plazas. I think this needs to be looked into.

    The light across the high school is not working. It's a very dangerous road and many kids have to cross it multiple times per day
