Description

This street has a bike lane, but this intersection does not detect bicycles. When the street was repaved it could have been retuned as suggested in DMV guidelines, but was not. Since this light has no timer, is sensor only, a bicycle is forced to get off and walk or run the red light when 17th, a low traffic road, has no automobile traffic.
