City of Salem IYO

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 left turn signal at the southbound intersection of Highland Avenue and Hawthorne Square is malfunctioning. Cars waiting to turn into the plaza are sitting through multiple cycles without the turning light changing to green.

Crosswalk signal always flashing.

Traffic signal at highland Ave and Barnes is not functioning properly. Leading to massive delays both directions

button for pedestrian to call traffic lights is falling from the post

Traffic signal to turn left from Highland onto Marlboro isn't turning green. Just sat through several light cycles and eventually had to run it, it just stayed red. Traffic is backed up WAY down Highland, this is a huge hazard and needs to be fixed ASAP.

Traffic traveling from Norman St over Washington to New Derby are not getting a green signal

Traffic light was taken down but pole is still on the ground.

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

Cars on Marlboro Rd block the intersection when the light is red, so those trying to turn from McGrath Park or from Osborne Hill Dr cannot enter the intersection when they have a green light. This especially happens during high traffic times. Can a sign be placed stating “Do not block intersection”, or lines painted on the street such as in other intersections on Marlboro Rd?
