What are the traffic cameras used for, or these devices "pointed at the sky" part of signaling to improve traffic flow?

Thank you for reporting your concern to City of Cambridge via Commonwealth Connect. We have reviewed the information you provided our staff and will be investigating this issue further.

has there been any update on the traffic cameras use to improve traffic flow at the major intersection outside of alewife? the traffic in the morning and evenings is getting worse. It also doesnt help that there is constantly construction going on at that intersection with parked trucks and walkers crossing the road. Please consider putting a police detail there to help improve traffic flow as people are constantly blocking the box.
