Or if we can change the RED shows up only when Push-to-Walk Button pushed.

The Malden Police Traffic division will look into this situation. A police presence would be a secondary option because we cannot have someone there at all times. So it would only be effective when an officer is available to cover that assignment. A pedestrian crossing light would be a better permanent fix but I'm not sure of the probability of that happening. We will investigate.

Yes, I think a pedestrian crossing light and a no turn on red sign would help. I understand a police can not be there all the time. Thank you for addressing this issue.

There was a no turn on red sign there for years. Then it was removed- probably due to being a one way. My opinion is to change it to a flashing yellow light with the option of turning red when needing to cross.

The problem isn't so much vehicles turning right on red. It's vehicles failing to follow the law by coming to a stop before turning right on red. Far too many just blow right through at 30+ mph. The only way to remedy that is traffic enforcement. While I understand the manpower limitations, I also know that the last time I checked, Malden was issuing 1/3 the number of traffic citations issued annually by Revere and Medford, 1/4 the number issued by Chelsea and Somerville, and 1/2 the number issued by Everett. There is no question that traffic enforcement has been de-prioritized. It's a matter of public record, in fact. See the City of Malden's 2016 management letter, http://www.cityofmalden.org/content/management-letters. Enforcement needs to be stepped up, Not just at this location but throughout the city.
