Description

The light at Main and Vine St favors Vine St traffic heavily. When traffic is heavy Main St, traffic can be backed up for over 1/2 mile on either side of the light. The timing of the light should be adjusted so that Vine St traffic has to wait about 30 seconds longer before the underground sensor turns the light green for Vine. This would drastically improve the Main St flow while only increasing Vine St wait just a bit. As it is now, many people take Denver St to get to upper Main St to avoid the jam caused, in part, by a poorly timed light.
When a car pulls up on Vine St, and the sensor is triggered, the light turns green about 17 seconds later. A slight adjustment to that time could save time and gas for those travelling main St.
This change would also allow police and fire apparatus to get through Main St quicker as less cars would be on Main St in that area.
Thanks in advance for anything you can do.
