I contacted the city about this very issue way back in probably '96 or '97 when I moved in to the neighborhood. I've also talked w/ city reps at the annual Maple Leaf social. It is absolutely awful and they've never done a thing about it. They say it's about money. But they found the funds to put a red light camera one block north, which seems so pointless! The Banner Way intersection is dangerous because there are so many people making left turns, there are pedestrians and bicyclists going to/from Green Lake, and quite frankly I just don't think people are mature and selfless enough these days to patiently wait their turn. THIS INTERSECTION NEEDS A LIGHT!
