please add a turn lane signal. add better signage heading north on 66th at 30th ave n. red light runners are a daily occurrence. THIS IS STILL A DANGEROUS INTERSECTION.

Yes, agreed! And do something about the Flashing signal that is a few blocks from the fire station. - Very distracting and drivers running the red light!!!!

Daily red light runners. Some dont see the 30th ave street sign immediately after flashing lights and way before red light. Some don't know it is a divided street. It's a deadly, dangerous intersection. If you are turning north onto 66th from Jungle Terrace you cant always see traffic on 30th in Holiday Park. Drivers exiting gas station rush to make the light. Its just an awful, awful intersection.

If you're heading west on 30th Ave N you would be requesting to add a left turn signal to go southbound, not northbound.

From Jungle Terrace east on 30th Ave N, left heads north on 66th.

From Holiday Park west on 30th, left heads south on 66th.

You get the idea....left turn signals are needed, especially with traffic density increasing.

100% agree-you can’t see beyond the left turn lane cars across 66th to tell if any cars are coming straight through the light. It’s a crap shoot making a left!

Thank you for reporting this issue as well as providing additional information. The Stormwater, Pavement, and Traffic Operations Department is tasked with maintaining current City infrastructure. We cannot install new or alter current traffic control methods; this is done through our peers at the Transportation and Parking Management Department. Your request has not fallen on deaf ears, however, and the information you've provided has passed to the appropriate party within that Department. Thanks again.

Thank you. That's all I can ask right now. =

Thank you for submitting this SeeClickFix request. We recently conducted a crash analysis of this intersection that looked at 18 months of data from June 2021 to November 2022. The most frequently occurring crash observed was red light runners on 66th Street, usually in the southbound direction, colliding with a vehicle on 30th Avenue (either westbound or eastbound). The data did not show any angle crashes between opposing vehicles on 30th Avenue, which would indicate a need for a green arrow. I agree with you that this is a dangerous intersection. It is listed as one of the Top 10 dangerous intersections by St. Petersburg Police, and we continue to monitor it for that reason. However, there is no real good engineering solution for red light running.

Sincerely,
