Description

Cyclists who use the new path through Flagstaff park to travel north are dumped onto Mass Ave, where there's a stop bar and a dedicated bike signal. Unfortunately there's a sign facing the other direction that completely obscures the signal when it's displaying a red light. The green lamp is visible, but the yellow and red lamps are totally invisible for a 6 foot cyclist waiting at the stop bar. Please remove or lower the traffic sign, raise the bike signal, or do something that makes the red light visible.

There is another bike signal right next to it that is visible, but it's angled at least 45 degrees away from the stop bar. It looks like it's meant for cyclists who are waiting to leave Cambridge Common.
