Description

Ever notice how New Haven traffic lights (not just this one, other lights such as at Temple and Crown do this as well) continue to have a four-way red to allow pedestrians to cross in all directions? This makes sense during the day, when there are a lot of pedestrians, but it is pointless past midnight certainly during the week and past 2am on weekends. It is really annoying to get stuck at a light for 30 seconds with a four-way walk sign flashing and zero pedestrians anywhere in sight while driving home late. There must be a way to have a daytime pattern and a nighttime pattern.
