There is a serious need for a left turn signal at High St and San Leandro St. NW-bound traffic in curbside lane it totally out of sight to SE-bound drivers needing to turn left onto High St. It is difficult, scary, and dangerous to navigate this movement, and a L turn must surely be warranted her. Please see attached video.

Thank you for reporting this in SCF.
This much needed traffic signal modification, the addition of left arrows turn signal, for this intersection would make this busy intersection safer and traffic would flow more efficiently.
In addition:
- Turning left from San Leandro St onto High Street, yielding to oncoming traffic coming from Fruitvale, is also very challenging.
- During high traffic time, drivers often wait through multiple cycles of signal lights to make a left turn. Their engines are idling, wasting gas, and generating air pollution and soot.
- Due to High Street's and San Leandro Street's proximity to the Nimitz Freeway and the industrial/residential nature of this neighborhood, a large number of tractor trailers, trucks, buses, cars, motorcycles, and bicycles share these roads.
- Vehicle accidents at this location are under reported so that useful data is lost.
- It is this data that can draw attention to problem intersections
- A formal traffic study would prove how busy this intersection and these roads are.
- I think that High Street could be categorized as a "major collector road" for highways, 880 and 580
- Impatient drivers cut through the corner gas station's lot adding yet another hazard.
- Tractor Trailers need extra room to make their wide turns and sometimes require other vehicles to go in reverse.
- San Leandro Street will become busier when the number of lanes on International Blvd. are reduced by an AC Transit project.

At the very least, the city should be collecting data on how many vehicles use the High St. / San Leandro St. intersection.
Even stanchions protecting the corner sidewalk are knocked over.
Evidence that it still is a difficult intersection: there was a vehicle collision at this intersection today at 12:34 PM (reference: LOP180713000498; 26x)
How did the traffic signal at 37th Ave. and San Leandro St get a better, greater than three-light signal stack? and that section of street has less traffic than this intersection.

Why hasn’t the city responded on this request from 2 years ago? This is a very serious need
