Description
There is an issue with the traffic signals and pedestrian crosswalk signals at the intersection of Vernon Blvd and 50th Avenue. The root cause appears to be some strange timing on the signals, which often result in red lights shown to all directions of traffic for prolonged periods of time (1 minute or more). There is also often too long of a green light for traffic traveling along Vernon Blvd, causing cars and trucks to back up into the intersection and blocking crosswalks and cars travelling on 50th Ave. The issue is most apparent during the morning rush hour as people hurry to make it to the train station. When all of the signals are stuck on red and 'don't walk', pedestrians get impatient waiting for the walk signal and get caught in the middle of the street just as it turns green.
