This has been a problem for a long time, and the State DOT doesn't want to fix it because additional time on the red for Rt 15 would back up traffic, so they say. I've complained several times to the township in the last few years, but it doesn't do any good. An extra 10 seconds for Berkshire Valley Rd left turns would do a world of good.
The lights at this intersection are ony 1 minuet long. Enough for 3 cars to get through. It takes 10 minuets or more to get from one side of Berkshire Valley Road to the other. This is rediculous. The lights need to be at 2 or 3 minuets long. At least 6 or 7 cars should get through. NOT 1 or 2.
This intersection has been the cause of so many accidents and this is one of the causes... not having a proper light to turn from Berkshire Valley Rd to NORTH on RT 15. Sometimes you can sit so long and missed several light changes bc of all the traffic crossing over to get to RT 15 south.
YOu have to wait and wait and wait for all the cars and give them the right away to cross over the intersection. These vehicles are coming down from Berkshire Valley(east) to cross over and head west or to go to Rt 15 south and all you want to do is turn left onto Rt 15 north and pray not to get rear ended y an impatient driver bc the light has changed several times or get t-boned by someone flying thru the red light coming down Berkshire valley (east) to turn onto RT15 South. IF they can put an arrow for the cars waiting on Berkshire Valley road to turn Left onto Rt 15 NORTH It would make a big difference and less car accidents.
I just noticed that there are no public watchers from the borough of Wharton receiving alerts about this issue and other issues in the town. If anyone has contact information for any local officials, please add them as public watchers for the Wharton Watch area. Please email me if you have any questions about how to do this.
Get rid of the light at this intersection completely. Make people who are on Berkshire Valley turn right onto 15 and then just use the U-turn at Taylor Road and install a new U-turn 200 yards down 15S for people who want to go the opposite way.
While you're at it, get rid of the light at Edison Road as well and put rumble strips from the Church on 15S straight through to the Getty Station.
The traffic light needs to be reconfigured so southbound traffic on Berkshire Valley Rd. and left turn lane for Rt.15 south have a delayed green.People have begun using what should be the left hand turn lane for Rt.15 north to get across and cutting people in the proper lane off.
