Description

Wondering if the traffic lights at the intersection of Burgin Parkway and Centre St. have been adjusted recently. The past week traffic has been backing up onto route 3 during the evening commute. It took me almost 20 minutes to get to the light from the route 3 exit. I know it's a busy time of day but it seems like traffic has just been worse lately. The rest of the ride on Burgin has been fine it's just getting to and through that one intersection.

We are aware and are working on this situation. We are waiting for the contractor to come out and fix the signal issue which is causing the backups. Any updates I will post here.

Please, is there any way to escalate this? This is so frustrating, because it is so unnecessary and preventable. Why do they tinker with the timing of the signals anyway? Fix them and then leave them alone! This is wasting so many people's time every morning. PLEASE PLEASE fix it as soon as you can! THANK YOU!

Agree with Kenneka, it's been more than a week now. What's the delay? Very frustrating and unnecessary. Something like this shouldn't take a week to fix. Typical of Quincy though, most roads are in terrible shape but we got a new track, awesome.

This is a known issue. The city is waiting on the contractor to come in and replace the broken lights. I have no other update at this time. Sorry for an inconvenience this may cause.

Lucky nobody has been killed due the tie-up and people running light after waiting forever! I will be contacting the mayor- somebody needs to be fired over this fiasco!

Like I said before, the Traffic Engineer is working diligently with the contractor to get a date as to when they can come and repair the signals. If you wish to get an update you can contact the Traffic Engineer, Debbie Finnigan at 617-376-1962. Thank you for your patience.

Deborah Finnigan should come out of the shadows and respond. If you're making over 100K per year you should work the holiday weekend and fix it yourself!

This is still a problem - what is the hold up? It's been nearly a month! WHEN WILL THIS BE FIXED???

This location is not a timing issue but an equipment issue. We are currently waiting for equipment to come in so we can fix the controller. This equipment should be in next week so the contractor can repair this location.

How about some traffic cops being placed there to keep traffic moving?

Police would help certainly. Still no word from the great DF??

Does the mayors office have access to this site? Maybe we should start contacting him about what's going on in his city with the traffic issues? This is ridiculous Katie (not blaming you btw). No way this problem should take a month to resolve. Very bad reflection on QUINCY.

I understand your frustration. I am actually one of the Mayors Assistants. We apologize for this inconvenience however, it did take some time for the shipment of the new signals and controllers (which is the problem, NOT a timing issue) andnow we are waiting on the contractor to install. Unfortunately it is out of our hands at the moment and the second we can get this resolved we will. Thank you all for your patience and understanding.

I have tweeted to the mayor, city of quincy, WBZ news, etc.This is a public safety issue, not just a traffic issue. Sorry that Katie needs to field the flak but nobody else will step up and take charge or blame. You are accountable to the people who voted for you Mr. Mayor

I've heard this has been fixed FINALLY??? Would be nice if the town would let people know so we aren't late for work every damned day.

Investigator J, I think it has been fixed and yes it would have been nice if the city or See Click Fix let people know. Wednesdays traffic on the off ramp during the evening commute wasn't bad and I thought I just hit the timing right and didn't get my hopes up. Thursday's commute wasn't as good but better than its been for a month so it had me thinking, maybe just maybe it's been fixed but again I didn't get my hopes up. Friday evening I made it from route 3 all the way down to the lights at Centre st./Home Depot before stopping and didn't have to wait forever for the signal to turn green. 3 days in a row that have been way better than its been so yeah I'm guessing they FINALLY got this fixed. Not ready to,close this issue just yet though, going to give it another few days next week and see how it goes.
