270 Mystic Avenue Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordCan you please adjust these lights? They don't time correctly and traffic keeps backing up terribly. It takes multiple clicks of the light to make it through -

Traffic Signal IssueAcknowledged586 Boston Ave Medford 02155, United States - MedfordTraffic light northbound on Boston ave: sensor is not triggered by bicycles and the light is not automatic. If I get a red and there are no cars with me at the intersection it won’t give me a green and I have to run a red light to get through. Please fix!

Auburn St & Mystic Valley Pkwy Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordHow to know when to cross the street? This is a signalized intersection, yet pedestrians don't get any kind of signal to know when to cross the street, leaving us in a guessing game of when to cross. Lots of crashes happen in this area, so not exactly where I want to be making guesses.

100-132 River'S Edge Dr Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordThe first traffic light heading south from Commercial St. Malden to Riverside Dr. Medford always actiates the left turn arrow when it changes and no traffic is in that lane request a left turn. That should only activate when a vehicle needs to turn left. Causes longer delays for the trafic in the northbound direction and only adds to drivers frustation and trying to make two lanes of trafiic where it should be one. In addition the time interval is way to long. Please address this ASAP its been like this since roadwork was done several tears ago.
My response from Mass DOT :
It appears this location is under local jurisdiction. I do not see that MASS DOT controls traffic lights in this area. -
Mystic Valley Pkwy Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordI think there is a burned out traffic light at this intersection. When you are coming from Wegman's, driving toward Somerville, I think the solid green signal is out. If I am remembering correctly there are two lights there, currently both are giving a green left arrow... I believe the right one should ALSO have a solid green light as well.

Boston Ave & College Ave Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordThe pedestrian crossing light on Boston and College Ave is only FIVE SECONDS long. I can’t imagine who can possibly cross the street in that amount of time except for able-bodied young people. This is of course near Tufts where there are lots of students, but there are also older people in the neighborhood and residents (including students) with disabilities. It’s unconscionable to make the duration of traffic lights 10x longer than crossing signals.

5th St & Middlesex Ave Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordYellow light OUT on the signal hanging over the intersection when heading North towards Malden. The signal on the side/pole of the intersection appears normal and fully functional.

574-578 Boston Ave Medford, MA, 02155, USA - MedfordThe crosswalk signal at the intersection of Harvard Street and Boston Ave on the corner with the Tufts building is currently non-functional. Even if you hit the button the signal does not activate, and I have had to wait through multiple cycles of the traffic lights before someone on one of the other corners was able to trigger the signal, or give up and jaywalk through the intersection.
