Description
At non-rush hour times, the light for traffic traveling northeast on Rhode Island Ave at N Capitol St has been changed to only stay green for 20 seconds. Traffic now routinely backs up past 1st St. NW and it often takes 4 or 5 green cycles to pass through the intersection. This is a major thoroughfare, and with the traffic turning left at N Capitol St it's already difficult to get through the intersection. Please change the timing back to at least 30 seconds to prevent this utterly needless back up which unnecessarily wastes everyone's time and increases pollution.
