City of Salem PLUS

Traffic signal at highland ave at traders way. Ted for over 2 min. Green for 5 seconds. This is on going. Traffic backed up to Lynn on highland. And into Peabody coming from Marlborough. Fix it. Please.

Can you please get together with Swampscott and figure out how to make the lights at Vinnin Square work better? Three light cycles to make it through the intersection this afternoon. The pedestrian signal comes on even though no one pushes the walk button. And if you could actually pave the roads so driving isn’t like going over an Olympic moguls course, that would be great.

The light that allows someone on Barnes or Ravenna to turn onto highland is not working properly. The light switches several times and cars are piling up without a green light to allow them to cross highland. I first noticed this last Friday but encountered this issue again this morning

EXTREMELY dangerous intersection.

It is well known by residents of the area that many commuters use Green St. as a cut behind for the Lafayette Street traffic. On numerous occasions, vehicles completely blow through the stop sign and do not even bother to look. This is a densely populated area with many children and pets.

Consideration should be made to making the street an Do Not Enter - Abutters Only during the hours of 2PM until 7PM and from Monday to Friday from the area of Summit and Clifton, Summit and Willow, West and Plymouth as well as Green and Eden.

This solution would not impact residents but deter commuters from flying down the backroads to avoid heavy traffic. A prime example of this can be found in Cambridge MA in the Alewife area of Route 16 and Route 2 at Alewife Brooke Parkway and Whittemore Ave.

This would dramatically increase the safety of residents and similar solutions could be implemented in various other parts of the City as well.

when exiting the parking lot of Walmart, the traffic signal seems to not work all the time. I watched it skip at least four cycles.

Green light is out on Highland/Traders Way light on side coming from Lynn

Southbound left turn signal is very short; only about four cars can turn onto Swampscott Road per cycle.

The pedestrian signal comes on automatically every light cycling even when there aren’t any pedestrians. This slows traffic on North St.

Generally, is there anything the city can do to improve traffic flow at this intersection? Everyday during rush hour there are very long backups, sometimes as far as to the bridge near the commuter rail station. Can the lights be retimed to allow more traffic to clear on North Street before changing for cross traffic and pedestrians?

The traffic lights at Bridge and St. Peter's Street and the one just north of it at the Bridge St. Extension seem to now have long pedestrian holds even when there are no pedestrians and traffic is backing up. It seems unnecessary.

Lights changing and people don't know where to stop Lines need to be repainted

ALL TRAFFIC LIGHTS OUT AT BUSY INTERSECTION - DANGEROUS
