Description

Crossing south at Huron fork (by gas station) on Westside, push the button and the walk light goes on first on Jackson and then on Dexter. Should be the other way around. I usually wait for traffic to clear on Dexter, run across and then try to use the last 5-10 sec of the Jackson light to get across but often I am stuck midway and need to push the button and wait another minute, while the Dexter walk light goes on first. Has been this way for years and is likely to get someone killed.

Going south to north, same sequence of lights, as it should be.

A bridge or tunnel would be nice.

Also, motor vehicles frequently position themselves entirely blocking the crosswalk on Jackson and refuse to move back when asked politely. I need to run around them with my bike to get to the sidewalk, not safe. Perhaps some disguised police vehicle could trap them.

The new signs at crossings on Miller and on Seventh sometimes work during the daytime if I stand there waving and pointing at the signs.
