Crossing Orange concurrent with parallel traffic *without* a walk signal leaves pedestrians to guess as far as when the traffic signals are about to change, how much time they have remaining to walk, and whether the cars moving at a high speed have seen the pedestrians. Moreover, most downtown intersections in new haven use a full stop of all car traffic before pedestrians get a walk signal, and then they get the signal for both directions of crossing the street. It creates ambiguity to have *most* intersections using a full “block the box” approach to pedestrian crossings and then to have an occasional un-signaled intersection such as this one, where pedestrians and cars are left to surmise that they should cross when concurrent traffic is going. In addition, Crossing Elm, the pedestrians are left to guess as far as when the light will change and the traffic start again. With a fast, multi-lane downtown intersection, the lack of a pedestrian signal is neglectful and dangerous. In addition, I posted this issue over a year ago, and the length of time it has taken the City to respond is unimpressive and frustrating, given that this is a public safety issue.
