Description

Please turn down the volume at the crosswalk at Meredith College, it's very loud.

Also, I know this has been responded to before, but can you please reconsider the repeated use of the word "wait". Using the word "wait" once when the button is pressed would be sufficient for a blind person to know to wait until given the announcement to cross. These talking crosswalks have been installed in Durham too, and they only say "wait" once when the button is pressed. The repeated use of the word "wait" results in me jaywalking as soon as I can to get away. Jaywalking is widespread on Hillsborough St, and pedestrian safety could likely be improved by reducing the annoying noise pollution.

Thank you!
