I also reported this issue on 9/9/13 and here is the response I got:

This traffic signal is currently under contract and has not yet been turned over to the city for maintenance. We will contact the contractor and inform them of the problem. Thank you for the post.

Has anything been done yet? It has been nearly a month and I have heard no update.

The other day I tried to cross while a contractor was assisting a truck backing up into the construction site. He actually waved me and another pedestrian to cross directly in the face of oncoming traffic! His focus was on the construction truck, not making sure that it was actually safe to wave people across the road. I crossed when he told me to, and found that he had directed me to walk into the path of an oncoming car.

Thanks for the post. The Traffic Signal Division will be notified.

We are closing this issue as we believe it has been addressed. If it remains a problem, please create a new SCF request outlining the current details of the persisting issue. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
