Bad traffic light timing Archived

4121 Lavista Rd Atlanta, GA - DeKalb County

On Sat and Sun mornings it is impossible to drive from Northlake Parkway to Montreal Rd without hitting every light and having to wait for long periods of time while there is no cross traffic. Could the timing be altered to allow for a smooth flow of traffic on Lavista?

  I keep getting emails asking me if this issue is fixed. No! It is still messed up.
  I will allow that an attempt has been made and it didn't take me 12 minutes to go 1.7 miles last Saturday.
  Why does the sensor on Ranchwood Drive control the light at Lavista on weekend mornings? One car pulls up and the light changes immediately and for over 60 seconds.

North Druid Kills Open

3614 N Druid Hills Road Decatur, GA - North Decatur

This morning around 7:30am as I was trying to drive to my job I was stopped at the exit of my neighborhood by a fire truck with lights flashing and 2 Dekalb County officers directing traffic. A car belonging to a new neighbor who lives on N. Druid Hills Road (3614 NDH Road) had been t-boned by a speeding driver. It was completely totaled with all airbags deployed. It was crumpled at the entrance of her driveway - she almost made it. Thank God she was not injured. Had she had a passenger or a child in the car, the same would not be said.

I am a resident of N. Druid Valley off N. Druid Hills Road and we need your help with a traffic problem that has taken enough of a toll on us and our neighbors. Less than 10 days ago, there was a fatal wreck near the exact same spot. In 1976, a little boy was killed crossing the road to get to school. The issue is that the speed of this road and the lack of traffic calming or electronic signals is taking its toll on us - the 110 homes in my neighborhood, along with the homes that line N. Druid Hills and the hundreds of homes in the area.

To document crashes, injuries, and deaths, my volunteer neighborhood association, North Druid Valley Home Association has put together a website: http://www.northdruidkills.com This website is going to be used to continuously compile the dangers of this stretch of road that is handling too much traffic. We plan on using it to raise the volume of our voice to get some help. We hope you are listening.

We are subject to the dangers of those speeding off 78 onto what should not be an extension of the highway - North Druid Hills is like a racetrack during the morning and evening commute. It is a danger to exit our neighborhood at N. Valley Road and N. Druid Circle - we are completely cut off from an intersection with a stop light. And we are in between a raceway used by folks who speed to and from work daily. If we are not at risk of being hit coming out, then we are by turning in. Many of the photos on the website show rear-end collisions.

Sincerely yours,

There needs to be a LEFT TURN signal on the traffic light when turning left onto Cotillion Drive from Chamblee-Dunwoody Road. It is nearly impossible to make a left there.

The stop light at Orion Drive and Lawrenceville Highway will sometimes not turn green for Orion Drive for up to 10 minutes.

Needs to be a fully functioning red light Archived

1734-1754 Womack Rd Dunwoody, GA 30338, USA - Dunwoody

This intersection needs a more modern stop-light. For times of peak traffic (7:30AM-9:30AM and 2:30PM-6PM) the light would function as a normal stop light, letting through large chunks of traffic at a time. But during off peak hours, it would revert to a flashing red light, as it has been for years.

This would alleviate the long lines of traffic on Womack that back up during peak hours, but would still keep traffic moving easily during off peak hours.

Signal Timing = Blocked Intersection Archived

4424 Ashford Dunwoody Rd Dunwoody, GA 30346, USA - Perimeter Traffic Operations Program

All the traffic lights SB on Ashford Dunwoody in front of Perimeter Mall through Hammond Drive are not synced and therefore SB traffic on Ashford Dunwoody ends up blocking the intersection exiting the mall and impedes the cross traffic flow and causes more congestion.

I would suggest the following:
1) Resync these lights on Ashford Dunwoody
2) Put up "DO NOT BLOCK INTERSECTION" signs at each intersection in this area
3) Add Red Light Cameras to these intersections and create a revenue stream for the city by catching these violators, as well as people who run these lights.

The time it takes to travel Savoy from Chamblee Dunwoody to I-285 E on-ramp at the end of Savoy is three to four times what it was before the new traffic lights were activiated.
