Description

Due to the ongoing construction at Washington Circle, the cross walk on the south side of the Circle at 23rd street is now VERY dangerous. The white cross walk light is illuminated and the countdown begins, but vehicles in the circle still have a few seconds of green and yellow. This situation leads to cars barreling trough the intersection trying to make the yellow and coming very close to hitting people in the crosswalk. There was actually an instance of a driver blasting their horn at people in the cross walk because they were forced to wait today(11/15/2013 @ 530pm). Please assign a traffic engineer to change the timing of these signals as it is only a matter of time before someone is hurt with the current setup in place.
