It's not just the pedestrian lights that are a problem. All the traffic lights in this town are out of sync. Does the city ever travel on the streets? If they did they would see the problems and fix them!

Thank you for this information. I have forwarded this to our Transportation department for them to action. Your confirmation number is SRQ2015-001767.

ste_ken, I have to respectfully disagree about "all" the traffic lights being poorly sequenced. My personal experience as a driver has been that the new-ish signals downtown have been a great improvement at moving vehicles. I live downtown, and before the new systems were all in place, getting home at 5 pm was a lot more frustrating than it is now. I spend a lot of time watching 100 Street out my windows and vehicle flow has noticeably improved. As for other parts of town, you have to understand that not all of the systems are linked together if they are older systems. Also, sometimes roads are simply operating at or near capacity, and having the signals intentionally hold up vehicle flow is a necessary compromise.
My frustrations with the signals are only when I'm a predestrian instead of a driver. For pedestrians, the signals are definitely needing A LOT of improvement!

Engineering has re-timed several corridors in the City in the last year.
The summer we plan to revisit the down-town signals to ensure that they meet our current timing standards as for as minimum green and walk clearances. This involves several timing plans as well as numerous time of day plans.
Also as tiny car indicated several major roadways in the city are at capacity at peak times and not much can be done without roadway improvements.
