Description

The intersection at Riverside Ave, Riverside MUP, & Intervale Ave is a confusing, awkward mess.

People riding bikes are told to use the walk symbol. However, activating the "I would like to cross the street, pretty please think of me" button requires one to cross lanes and dismount to safely use it. Additionally, there is then a STOP sign, which customarily means, "Stop motion here and proceed once safe." That contradicts the instruction to use the walk signal. So which is it? Who knows?!

So, we should make this intersection simpler, clearer, and without needless hoops and impediments.

I'm open to what that may look like and I'm happy to give feedback if you'd like.
