Street Light Bulb Out Archived

Van Schoonhoven Square Waterford, NY - Saratoga County

The street light on the south side of the property has been out for almost a year.
Who normally replaces these ?

  I saw National Grid yesterday. They came with the bucket truck and checked it out. The whole assembly is bad and needs replacing. They are going to contact the department that handles this and they should be back next week.

Right arrow needed Open

108-110 Old Post Rd Malta, NY 12020, USA - Saratoga County

When the northbound Rt 9 Traffic get the left turn arrow for Old Post Rd., folks on Old Post Rd should have a right turn arrow to proceed south onto Rt 9. This would allow about 50% more cars through that intersection and greatly reduce the morning backup on Old Post Rd.

  now we can agree on something. We NEED an entrance to the northway on Malta Ave. It would cost far less than increasing the capacity on Old Post Road.

  So how can we get this accomplished? I am certain that the Apple orchard people would go along with it, and there must be Economic Stimulus funds for something like this. A southbound entrance-only ramp is the immediate need, and phase 2 could be a northbound exit only ramp.

  When inquiring about this I was told it was too close to exit 13. Of course if Roy Mcdonald lived on Malta Ave, we might have a chance. I makes sense, therefore it will never be done.

  That's ridiculous - off Cresent Ave, between exits 14 and 13 there is an entrance ramp which takes most of the track traffic and funnels it directly onto the Northway southbound. This would do exactly the same thing. Thanks for trying Rick, you are correct, if we could get a politician to want it, it'd be a done deal.

Need better lighting for safety Archived

111 Church St Saratoga Springs, NY 12866, USA - Saratoga Springs

In the summer the trees are so thick that it is dangerously dark on Church Street from West Lawrence to Van Dam at night. We need to have the kind of street lamps that exist on either end of the street. An immediate solution would be to cut back the trees.

Correcting traffic flow should solve all problems at this intersection Open

1 West Ave Saratoga Springs, NY 12866, USA - Saratoga Springs

Several years ago, roadwork changed the traffic flow backing up traffic onto west ave. It used to be the right lane was for right turn only and the left lane was for going straight (pulling into the bank, it is ONE WAY, IN ONLY) or turning left. No new lights were required, no arrows needed yet money was spent replacing and rerouting traffic. Now you have a right turn arrow that is worthless, people cannot use it as someone going into the bank, (going straight) is in front of them. Meanwhile the left lanes do not need an arrow either since there is NO oncoming traffic.! If the lights were correct you would not have the traffic back up and fewer people trying to do the right on red thing. As for people not yielding the right of way, there is no fix for idiots! But, perhaps if the light was corrected there would be less people waiting to make that turn. Simply moving the go straight lane from the right to the left lane would improve traffic flow. It would allow people to turn on the arrow as intended!

  You should never wait to report such an outage on SeeClickFix. In this case the signal is NYSDOT maintained and can be reported to the Capital District Traffic Management Center at (518) 388-0346.
  
  When in doubt about the jurisdiction of the roadway for a red light out, do not hesitate to call 911 on your cell phone which will connect you with the State Police. They will report the outage to the appropriate authority.
  
  You can see why the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices requires two red indications at a signal installation.

2 out of 3 street lights not working Archived

26-98 Kelley Ln Saratoga Springs, NY 12866, USA - Saratoga Springs

First Google maps has this wrong. The name of the street is Cliffside Dr. Kelly Ln. is a street, not pictured, that runs from Cliffside Dr. toward Saratoga Lake (Mapquest has it right.) Anyway 2 of the 3 street lights on this street are not working, one for over 2 years, one for just less then 1 year. They both turn on, and a few seconds later turn off, a sequence repeated dusk to dawn.

Clogged Storm Drains & Deteriorating Medians Open

Route 50 From Van Dam St. To Northway Exit 15 Saratoga Springs, NY - Saratoga Springs

It appears that NYS DOT does not care about the Arterial (CV Whitney Memorial Highway) otherwise they would clear the storm drains and repair damaged medians. I realize that the state has limited funding but some funds should be made available to maintain this road since it is an artery /lifeline for local residents. It's bad enough that DOT removed the lights off of 90% of the street lights out on the Arterial. It took a Skidmore student being killed a few years ago at the intersection of Veteran's Way / Gick Rd. to get some of the lights restored. Maybe the head of DOT should take a pay cut to help cover costs to fix some things on state highways.

Pot hole is approx 4 feet or more wide and 1 -2 feet deep ore more. You can't see it when you approach it heading westbaound since it has been flooded with rain and melting snow. It can and will cause damage to vehicles if not repaired. Especially dangerous at night since there are no street lights above it to illuminate the roadway. It was dark when we hit this pot hole so I may not have the exact address but it is within 25 yards either direction of this address.

Missing Street Light Open

10-12 1st Ave Waterford, NY 12188, USA - Saratoga County

Two yrs ago the street light on the corner of Clifton St and 1st Avenue was taken down off of the old telephone pole for a new pole to be installed. The street light sat on the ground by the base of the poles for a long time before it were removed. Both the new and old telephone poles are standing but no streetlight. This is at a 4 way intersection along a railraod crossing. This issue has been reported to the town but without any resolution to date.

2011-04-02 · Reported by Donna Simmons (Guest) · Share · Flag Flagged
- Donna Simmons (Guest)
  
  To verify which poles I am speaking of the old telephone pole has the markings "NM 2" on it with a white X painted on it to indicate it is the one to be removed. The new pole has the marking of "VZ 111-5". I spoke with a National Grid worker who checking on the transformers on the adjacent pole recently and asked him if I should I contact National Grid to get the light repaced as I had already called the issue into the town clerk and nothing happened. He told me that he worked on the pole replacement project. He stated that the rail-road police told them, the National Grid workers, that they and the trucks were too close to the tracks and they couldn't work there. The workers mentioned to the rail police that the residents park their personal vehicle in the same spot were the National Grid truck was. I do not no if it is a matter of getting a permit to work that close to the rails. My belief is that it is a case of over use of powe or the lack of following through on projects to make sure they are completed properly . This issue NEEDS to get fixed when clearly replacing that light would benefit the residents and the rail engineers who drive through that intersection.

Poor street lighting, vacant building on Worth St are potential hazards to re... Open

Worth St Saratoga Springs, NY 12866, USA - Saratoga Springs

Pedestrians crossing Worth St or walking along the north side of that street after dark have great risk of being hit by any moving vehicle because city street lighting is very poor. A vacant house on Worth Street adjacent to the new rec center presents an attractive nuisance to the many children in that neighborhood. This house, with it's overgrown yard and unlocked low fence, is a potential home to vagrants and cover for potential criminal activity. The city must correct these potential hazards in order to be true to it's stated mission of offering a safe place for Saratoga's children and adults to congregate and participate in healthy activity.

After the recent Brad Paisley concert, during a torrential downpour, I picked up 2 hitch-hikers ( @ 11:30 p.m. and NOT my usual practice ) across from the State Tree Farm north of the East-West Rd. Due to poor lighting, I barely saw them and had limited time to give them a wide berth from the right lane before stopping to give them a ride back up to Ave. of the Pines.
This is also the area where past accidents have occurred with vehicles and pedestrians (Dave Matthew's concert this season) and it should be considered for some sort of lighting improvement.

  Terrible choice of lighting on that "new" section of Rt 9 south of Ave. of Pines. Needs overhead lighting, not lights that shine right in your face.
  And while they are at it, put water faucets on the median so city and state workers don't have to park their trucks in the passing lanes when they water the flowers. Should have been thought of when they designed the medians. The water can easily be winterized when not in use.
