Description
A change was made very recently to timing of the traffic signals at this very busy intersection during the very busy morning commute (7-8am). The light stays green for north/south 27 traffic for at least 30 seconds, then the green light for Bacon Street traffic trying to access Route 27 lasts for about 5 seconds. This is hugely annoying, inconvenient, and unfair. I am one of many Natick drivers who resists the urge to shortcut through the Park Ave/North Pleasant St neighborhoods. Too many drivers already take that shortcut with complete disregard to the safety of the school kids in those neighborhoods. Please reset the signals so that Bacon St. traffic gets a fair chance at Rt 27 access. By the way, this is no doubt a result of the new traffic congestion generated by the Paperboard housing development across from Grove Street.
