also, at the intersection of Chicopee and meadow st, at the dry bridge,shouldn't the yield sign be facing the traffic coming in from chicopee center and granby road bearing right toward meadow st. ? when coming from across, we have a green light and in the middle of the intersection have to yield. dangerous

thank you

Elyse, Thanks for your comments.

Looking at the phasing plan the Prospect EB left turn lane should be green a green arrow with the Prospect St thru-right turn. Then the protected green arrow drops out to allow Prospect WB to go green in a permission mode.

The Prospect St EB right turn lane is restricted during the red phase with a No Turn on Red. So shifting lanes to make the right lane only for right turns will not help your idea.

Keep in mind there are 3 intersections in close proximity that need to move traffic.

The other questions regarding the Presnal Bridge (dry bridge). The Chicopee St WB onto Meadow St has the right of way. You are correct coming from in the intersection at Wilson onto Meadow has to yield to the Chicopee St traffic. MassDOT controls this intersection and they feel this is the correct yield/right of way movement. I agree with them. There is a smooth progression from Chicopee onto Meadow. The 'Wilson' thru movement from the intersection is almost perpendicular to Meadow St.

Thank you for using Chicopee Connect. Your issue has been corrected.

Thanks for fixing this issue!
