Description

I work in the Braintree Hill Office Park (up Rockdale Street). The light at the bottom of the hill (Rockdale Street / Granite Street / Wood Rd) is very dangerous. Most of the cars coming down Rockdale are turning left to go towards the highway. There is no left arrow and the cars coming from Wood Rd. also have a green light. Most of these cars are going right, so there is mayhem when it is green. Oddly enough, the cars from Rockdale tend to establish the right of way, even though I don't think we should have the right of the way in that situation. Also, cars coming down Rockdale also tend to use the right lane to make a left turn. Often, these cars come very close to hitting the cars entering from Wood Rd. It's brutal. And additionally, when the Rockdale/Wood light is green, the crosswalk says to walk, which makes no sense at all, as again, most of the cars are going on Granite St. directly into this crosswalk.
