If they keep building billion dollar busways to nowhere, they will never improve the states traffic lights.

Traffic Counts and turning movements are being compiled at this moment (interrupted by recent fire) and the Shelton PD is working with CT DOT Traffic and their Regional Planning Organization to re-sync the lights for better flow.
This is a short-term solution. Much of the congestion is being caused by new housing development on Canal St. The real solution is to install video detection loop which actually will synchro the lights. All that can be done now is a best guess on timing as the lights have no way to "talk" to each other. This interim solution should take about another month to compile and implement. Adjustments to those timings will go on for another 60-90 days.
