Description

This is the Main St.-University Ave entrance to McMaster University. The crosswalks get a lot of pedestrians traffic. The pedestrians are often very hard to see, especially after dusk. There are long, angled, pedestrian crosswalks with cars turning both left and right into the pedestrians. To make this intersection safe, the city should reprogram the stoplights so that cars on both streets (Main St. and University Ave) have red lights at the same time, thereby blocking all vehicular movement while pedestrians can cross in any direction.
