Why does this light even cycle to red? People driving on Ridge Ave don't have any traffic to keep an eye out for, so why is there a red light that lasts 5 seconds?
Sure, pedestrians wanting to cross would like a red light, and thats perfectly fine when they hit the button, but this light cycles red for quite literally 5 seconds then changes to green. Whats the point?

Philly311 called me with this explanation : 4:33pm
Hi, this is Charlie. Denny with the streets department. I'm returning your call. Concerning 311 then region. Main Street and the 5 second red light for a regional. That is by design.
