Description

Traffic signal doesn't detect bicycles on bike route to cross Como Ave heading north on 18th Ave SE. If you're on a bike, you need to wait multiple cycles until a car pulls up behind you before the light changes. I have reported this at least three or four times before and it always gets dismissed with "no issue", probably because it's investigated during the day with plenty of car traffic triggering the light. This light used to automatically change, but now it's been adjusted to detect cars only to prioritize a green light eastbound and westbound for Como Ave traffic. Hope it can be addressed. Thank you.
