The timing of the traffic light at Pennsylvania Avenue and Rt 100 Archived

Pottstown Pike Exton, PA 19341, USA - Chester County

When you are northbound on Rt 100, turning left at Pennsylvania Ave, the turn light remains RED when no cars are coming. I can sit there to 2-3 mins with absolutely no traffic in site. Then I watch cars come from the Graphite Mine traffic light only to be stopped when they get to Pennsylvania Avenue. How stupid is that? 100 cars have to stop and idle to allow 1 car (me) to turn left. The lights through Eagle should be programmed to sense flow because there are countless times I could have turned left and NEVER affected southbound Rt 100 traffic.

  UPPER UWCHLAN TOWNSHIP..... PlEASE take OFF the arrow to turn left at Rt 100 and Pennsylania BLVD.... This light used to fade out and only had a green thus you could turn when there were no cars coming..... This needs to be set to sense flow of cars so left hand turning onto Pennsylvania ave from Northbound Rt 100 can be done. Thanks John for bringing up the issue as it truly needs to be fixed....I did my research and Upper Uwchlan is responsible for this particular light's operation.
  Too many cars are building up in the turning lane for nothing... Light is tooooo long for turning lane. HELP! Tell your friends!

Briarcliffe Father and Son Baseball Field Located behind Park Drive Open

Park Drive - US Congressional District PA7

This field is used for the Father and Son Assosciation, and that is great, but there are numerous problems with this field. One being, that this field is meant for younger kids to play baseball. Now sometimes you get a young kid who can hit a ball pretty far but not too much to worry about, its when you end up with adults playing on that field, and they are much stronger. Balls have been hit and broken car windows, and when the police are called, the cops almost get hit.

And secondly, the biggest problem is, Father and Son need to have a higher fence installed, because kids are always being chased through the field by Ridley Township Police, but then the kids run through the field and jump our fences and run through our yards. And Darby Township Police, could care less. Not only do kids right their bikes through our yards to jump our fences, NOT the baseball field's fence, parents walk through our yard pick their kids up and then jump our fences. Father and Son needs to put up a 6'-8' high fence up to stop these problems. We respect the ballfield how about they respect us.

  When they jump the fences they have caused damage to the fence bars by bending them. Which homeowners have to pay to get fixed. That's not right either. I've seen some of the fences really damaged by this.

Red light when no cars are at other street Archived

806 New Scotland Ave Albany, NY 12208, USA - Buckingham Lake-Crestwood

This is another shining example of pre-WWII out dated traffic signal technology. This light turns red holding up 4 lanes of traffic up to 20-25 cars, all idling for no reason while there are no vehicles, no buses and no pedestrians waiting or exiting Hurst Street.

Big waste of time and fuel waiting for non-existent vehicles.

  I agree! I just recently drove along New Scotland Ave. from the area of the new merry-go-rounds in Slingerlands, down through the City of Albany after not having been there in a long time. That whole section of New Scotland Ave. looks as though it was built and then forgotten about in the 1920s! The traffic lights are so old that they look like they should be controlling the traffic of Model T Fords and horse-and-buggies! The backwards-thinking of this city, (and the whole State of New York) is mind-boggling!
  
  With the technology of today, there is no reason why we can't get traffic lights installed which ONLY turn red if there are vehicles entering from the side roads.
  
  GET WITH THE TIMES, NEW YORK!!!

Commercial Junkyard in residential area Archived

160 Osler Street Toronto, ON - Toronto

To follow up on a story reported in September 2009 (I think) where the landowners of 160 Osler were using the back of their property to store large amounts of florescent tubes, they now appear to be running a scrap yard business. Two large trucks leave each morning, idling for at least 15 minutes before departing. They return in the evening and unload large amounts of junk (metal scraps mostly). During the day there are a couple of men working at sorting and breaking down what was retrieved the day before. It's loud and messy and dirty and I have concerns about what materials they may be storing in the alley, with regards to fire and health hazards.

Tour Bus Illegal Parking Open

Henry Bacon Dr SW, Washington D.C., DC - US Congressional District DC98

The signs on the west side of Henry Bacon Drive (in front of the concession stand) clearly state that there is no parking anytime for vehicles and NO stopping or standing for buses during rush hour. However, EVERY DAY during rush hour there are multiple buses that idle/park there waiting to disgorge/engulf their tourists. This takes away one of two lanes to access Memorial Bridge, a key route out of DC and backs traffic up on Constitution Ave, NW westbound. It is inentirely illegal and neither US Park Police nor MPD is ever there to give tickets. And the bus drivers don't care because they don't pay the tickets and work for out-of-state companies. I think the police should hang out there and give tickets daily until the tour bus companies get the message.

Diesel tractor trailers idling, blocking bike lane Open

750 S 11th St Philadelphia, PA - Wharton-Hawthorne-Bella Vista

Since Bella Vista Distributor does such a booming business, I understand that they may sometimes need as many as 3 tractor trailers to use the bike lane as a loading zone / unloading zone / parking lot.

However, while these trucks block traffic and turn a street that could be a 6-lane highway into a one-lane accident-waiting-to-happen, there is no reason for them to leave their engines running.

rush-our line closures for sporting events Open

Kelly Dr Philadelphia, PA 19130, USA - Strawberry Mansion

What the @#$%!?
I just spend an hour on Kelly drive, on a Friday evening between 7 and 8 PM. Turns out lanes are closed at Logan Square (and West River Drive).
I want to know what fucktard is signing off on such an organization of whatever event. I suggest to save some precious city budget on that salary.
Speaking of the budget, don't have the cops better things to do as well?
Then, there's the environment. How many diesel trucks can you idle for how long to match the waste during those hours of cars all along Kelly Drive (and 76 as well) sitting there unnecessarily?
What's the time worth that drivers waste there?
I had a long day - week - and the last thing I need is this crap.
Today and yesterday it apparently was some run, but of course there are the boat races and whatever else. None of this can have any business blocking @#$% rush-hour traffic.
If those events can't be sceduled between 10 AM and 3 PM, Philadelphia just can't afford them.

Stop. This. Now.

There is no signs to indicate that Cedar is a ONE WAY street away from MacDade...especially to drivers leaving the diner parking lot! They constantly trun towards MacDade upon leaving the diner lot which is against the lawful direction of Cedar!It needs to be clearly marked that Cedar is ONE WAY & WRONG WAY signs posted so they can be seen...OR make it two way to the end of the diner parking lot...put a stop sign at MacDade and ONE WAY signs on Cedar towards the end of the diners parking lot.

  Hi Ted...as your picture so clearly shows...it is marking the street as ONE WAY & this sign is located AFTER the restaurant parking lot...HOWEVER there is no stop sign at the MacDade end to STOP traffic going onto MacDade...there should be a STOP sign there as you would not place one there IF the road was ONE WAY away from MacDade...agree??? Any reasonable party would look at this and see that the road is ONE WAY from MacDade all the way down...because there is no stop sign at MacDade...if they were not familar with this area...so IF in fact it IS NOT one way UNTIL one reaches the sign in your picture...it should be clearly marked as such & a STOP sign placed at MacDade. This would end what is NOT clear and dangerious except to the folks living there. And as Kathleen so clearly put it...an accident waiting to happen!

  They clearly abuse this exemption. Their routine is to start the ambulance, roll it out of the garage to streetside. Then, while its running, load it up with supplies. This often takes an hour. Making matter worse is the drivers and employees also stand around shooting the bull or smoking cigarettes all the while the engines are running. Multiply this by the number of ambulances housed here (maybe 25?) and you can imagine the situation. An ambulance left running while the crew is inside a location picking up a patient--understandable. Just left running for heck of it? Should still be illegal.

Prevent uturns on Apalachee Parkway Open

  hey MD, there is a better way, how about you use the south wood exits on capital circle instead of always clogging up the entrance to my neighborhood. I live in copper creek, and KonaChar, that turn is not a u-turn for the ace hardware, it is a left turn for the neighborhood it sits in front of. there should be a no u-turn at the entrance to copper creek, I am tired of almost getting hit in the morning by people from southwood using that for u-turns when im trying to leave my neighborhood to go to work!!!

  81ghtystudios.... I'm sure the left turn going south on 27 just past Ace was put there for Copper Creek, but it's a very short distance from Ace. My feeling is that people trying to turn back to Ace need to yield to the people exiting Copper Creek, but how else are folks supposed to get into Ace? Should they drive to Connor and do a U-turn at the light there? People do use the light at Sutor to do a U-turn back to Southwood and even though there is a left-turn lane, it's a pain in the butt when people turn there for Southwood if you're trying to go into Wal-Mart. Whoever gave the go-ahead to build the shopping center where Ace is obviously didn't think things through.

  Okay, a turn lane has now been installed for the shopping center at Ace Hardware. The City responds to businesses but not citizens - pretty clear. Thanks for nothing.
  
  By the way, this exact area was the scene of the collision involving a school bus recently. The City doesn't care, schools are the county's business.

  81ghtystudios - if Southwood Plantation Road would be re-routed by the sharp curve area to align with Sutor Road, then you would not face the issue of people making uturns at your turn. Oncoming traffic there is already moving pretty fast. Using the exits onto Capital Circle can be well out of the way. This alignment would also make it easier to access Walmart from the south. The Orange Ave extension to SW Plantation Rd has helped some.

Inconsistent and Outrageously Slow Speed Limits on W. Baltimore Pk. Open

Elwyn Area - Upper Providence Township

On the sloped portions of West Baltimore Pk. the speed limits are ridiculously slow. Going downhill westbound towards Ridley Creek Rd. the speed limit is only 25 (it would be better at 30 or 35). Then at the bottom of the hill near Elwyn and the waterworks you are expected to increase your speed 20mph. faster to 45. Gradual speed increase would be more practical.
Eastbound from Granite Run Buick and passing Elwyn Institute, if you go 35mph like I do (which is the speed limit) other vehicles pass you and the the left lane ends going down the slope. Perhaps 40 or 45 mph. would be more practical here.

  I suspect the reason for the 25 mph speed limit coming out of Media is for the safey of people pulling out from Ridley Creek Road. Not much visibility there. Would you prefer a light at that intersection?

  Residences are on that side of Baltimore Pk which also could account for the 25 mph speed. As someone who makes a right onto Baltimore Pk from Ridley Creek Rd., I know not many drivers follow the posted 25 mph. Most travel 40-45 mph going down that hill. Difficult getting out sometimes, but it's better than sitting at another stoplight.

  I don't see an issue with the 25mph down that hill. It is a residential area and makes it safer for folks turning in/out of Ridley Creek Rd. It beats having another light there as well. If anything, the speed limit should be enforced more there as people drive very recklessly around that turn (tailgating/passing cars driving the speed limit via the turning lane). I am okay giving up a light for a lower posted speed limit. We have too many lights/stops igns already, and they never seem to ease they traffic flow.
  I do agree that driving into Media from Granite Run should be 45mph, then come down to 35/25mph at Ridley Creek road, instead of the 35mph from Riddle Ale House on. Too slow, especially as folks coming up the hill have 45mph.

  I live right there. I have been dealing with the people going at LEAST 35MPH past Ridley Creek and never had a major problem. At this point if you get in an accident there, its your fault. You should know people dont go 25mph downhill on a 4 lane highway. I agree it should be 35 or 45mph. probably 35 because then people will actually go around that speed as opposed to 45-55mph.

  Clean Air Council monitors idling hotspots through this website application. The Council is working with Air Management Services and the Parking Authority to address these worst locations by targeting their enforcement efforts appropriately. Is there a specific time of day or day of the week that these trucks are idling?
  
  Thanks for your help!

  Jeanette,
  I just realized your location is outside Philadelphia's boundary. Air Management Services and the Philadelphia Parking Authority can only enforce idling inside Philadelphia. However, there is a state law banning idling that local police can enforce. Try contacting the Upper Darby Police next time you see idling here. I will try to contact Astra Foods to alert them of the law.
  
  Thanks!
  Nick Rogers, Clean Air Council

  I live here, I care and everyone should care. Idling causes and exacerbates asthma -- which is expensive, causes lost school time, lost work time and and emergency room visits among children, the elderly and everyone else.

Sign Not Located Well Open

Memorial Dr Cambridge, MA - Mit

There's a sign that points drivers either to the left (to boston / gov center via longfellow bridge) or right (to cambridge, etc. via mem drive/land boulevard); the problem is that this sign is not well located to help drivers make the decision in time. This often results in drivers idling at the 'center of the fork" and at times, backing up into oncoming traffic in order to get to the desired route. This sign needs to be moved up closer from where it currently sits and the letters need to made larger, easier to read.

  “…the most important influence on a neighborhood's crime rate is neighbors' willingness to act, when needed, for one another's benefit, and particularly for the benefit of one another's children… rather than focusing on arresting squeegee men and graffiti scrawlers, local governments should support the development of cooperative efforts in low-income neighborhoods by encouraging neighbors to meet and work together.”

  The Labor Day block party was a great success (see photo link below). But I'll close this issue for now (even though the "issue"--need for more structured activities for kids--has not been "fixed").

Idling truck and liars! Archived

Alliance Carpet Cushion Pearl St, Torrington, CT 06790, USA - Torrington

This company, Alliance Carpet Cushion, hires QC drivers to idle their trucks for hours, sometimes at night. These trucks used to make noise, and the police department has even told me that there is no idling law for that truck because it needs to unload. That's the same story the truck driver told me, and now during the summer as I walk by the truck is off, and unloading the product. The Torrington Police Department, QC trucks, and Alliance Carpet Cushion are all liars! Still, despite numerous complaints and one investigation, the city of Torrington refuses to take action despite a lot of evidence.

  Actually there is a state law against idling trucks. The law is that trucks of all types can only idle for 3 minutes with the exception of extreme weather.

  A excellent post.
  
  This issue has been reported numerous times previously, 311 has filed the complaints when closing the issue on prior occasions - this post shows that it continues to be an issue and more a more strenious follow up may be needed.

NY bound travelers poisoned by Shoreline East Open

50 Union Ave Union Station New Haven, CT - Long Wharf

At Union Station New Haven there is an idling Shoreline East diesel train on track 10 that emits obnoxious fumes and excessive noise to Metro North commuters waiting on track platform 14 for the 4:23. Often the fumes enter the stairway to the track 14 platform and the Metro North train. The noise and fumes assault commuters on platform 14 every Monday thru Friday. The track 10 platform is very long. I would like this train to move down the platform, away from commuters on track 14, away from my train’s open doors, and away from the staircase’s open doors. NOT resolved. Shoreline East train continues to poison Metro North customers as of 3/14/2012.

  Seems like Andy and Mark are the only ones annoyed by this. Ever wonder why they let the diesels run at idle, instead of shutting them off? Do some research and find the answer. It may enlighten you. It'll sure give Andy something better to do...

  I know they like to keep diesel engines running....I don't see the need to have that Shoreline East train next to the platform where commuters are waiting for the NY bound train. Perhaps you ought to read my post again.
