This is a huge problem, but if people paid attention to the placement of the traffic lights, and not the splits / seams in the concrete, there would be less problems.

I spoke to John at Engineering for the City of Pontiac today and reported this issue. He said " This was the first complaint filled". Please report issues like this to
(248) 758-3640, the more complaints the quicker the fix.

And now its a liability for the City if they don't fix it. They're on notice.

If an accident occurs based on no lines visible, make the City pay.

Again, if people would pay attention to the placement of the lights and perhaps how the other traffic is placed, this wouldn't be as big of a problem. Stop paying attention to the splits / seams in the concrete!

The traffic lights at this intersection has nothing to do with the lack of painted lines. Lines on the pavement are traffic control devices and as important as the signals. Without them, there are no lanes to be made to stay in.

Drivers need to pay more attention. Who would think that stopping over the clearly visible white lines between the left straight through and left turn lanes is correct? If you are not sure, watch other vehicles, use a little common sense. Come on -- if you can't make better decisions, maybe you shouldn't be driving.

Currently, there are NO lines visible on Eastbound Walton at Telegraph. They have been worn away. Traffic signal placement does not provide lane location.

Traffic light placement does not match the alignment of the lanes when they are actually newly-painted. The road "jogs" to the right at this intersection. If you followed the lines from before they disappear you would end up in the on-coming traffic turn lane - which is also almost in line with the stoplights. It will be most important for this issue to be resolved before the fall and winter sets in. It is most difficult to "guess" the correct lanes in the rain and snow. Please spread the word and help get these lanes re-painted ASAP.

The stripes have finally been repainted.
