Description
The traffic light doesn't give a green signal to traffic traveling east on Humphrey. Yesterday I sat through four cycles of red light while traffic traveling the other way on Humphrey and all traffic on State Street got green lights again and again. I'm not sure if the light is motion-signaled, but I started out behind the white line, then slowly moved up when I didn't get a green -- it didn't change no matter what. I was finally forced to run the red when the other side had a green but no cars were coming, and by that time there was a very long line behind me.

Since this is a comment about a specific issue at specific locations, it would seem better as a general policy to give some indication of actions taken. As an alternative, if an action was taken but not reported on SeeClickFix at the time, you could give an indication of how often an engineer would routinely check the traffic lights mentioned, and what would be included in a routine check.
My query whether this type of problem with traffic lights is endemic is partly driven by a feeling that various traffic lights around the city need attention that they don't seem to get. If I open another issue about traffic lights, say about the duty ratios at Henry and Dixwell and at Henry and Orchard (Henry seems to have a significantly low priority relative to the volume of traffic waiting there), will it be unanswered then closed a year later?
AFAIK, Edwards & Prospect and Munson & Winchester are not currently failing to cycle correctly. I don't often use Humphrey & State.
