Description

The intersection of Wendover Ave and Piedmont Parkway causes a very long line of traffic to back up on Wendover because the light changes too frequently.

While traveling east on Wendover it often takes 4-5 light cycles to get through that intersection on an average day at 2:00 (not even rush hour). The light turns green and allows traffic to progress for about 25 seconds and then cycles again (and of course in that time there are only 2-3 cars on Piedmont Parkway waiting to turn and 50-75 cars that can't get through the light on Wendover).

I'm not a city planner, so I'll leave that up to the experts, but it seems the simple fix would be to lengthen the amount of time the Wendover light stays green (not including the protected turn arrow).
