Description

The length of the traffic signal at Hunting Road and Kendrick Street really needs to be changed. When traveling on Kendrick the light is 1 minute 20 seconds long. When traveling on Hunting Road the light is 20 seconds long. 4 cars can barely get through the light before it turns red. It can sometimes take 3 or more cycles to get through this light. This has been going on ever since the cycle was changed when the construction was completed. I have spoken several times to someone at the DPW about this so I know they are aware of the issue. They’re working with the state to try to get this changed. Does anyone have an update or a reason for not changing it? It should either be shorter than the almost minute and a half or make it a pressure light.
