    ONCE AGAIN THIS ISSUE WAS CLOSED BUT THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED!

    I opened a report and updated it several times for a traffic light issue at the intersection of Cary Parkway and Harrison Ave. The issue was that the light for Northbound traffic on Harrison was green for only 35 seconds, thus traffic backed up on Harrison and at the intersection of Harrison and Reedy Creek Road. The problem appeared to have been fixed as the "green" time was extended to over a minute. Now, as of 3/17/17, the light for Northbound traffic is green only 35 seconds, which is enough time for 12-15 cars to get through when there are 45-50 waiting, including once again the North bound traffic on Ready Creek Road..

    My question is "why was the original ticket closed again"? I no longer see it on this website so presume it has been closed & archived. Note that "I" did not close the ticket. Your organization claimed the issue was fixed at least 3 times now...

    Lastly, on your web site, when an issue is reported, the only "Category" that can be selected is "Post to Neighbors". What good does this do? Neighbors in the are already know this is an issue! I do not get it...

    Every day between appx 7:30 - 8:30 AM, Northbound traffic on Harrison Ave is backed up at the traffic light at the intersection of NW Cary Parkway. The reason why? Because the light turns green for North bound traffic for a mere 30 seconds. This light should be green for no less than 75 seconds. With 30 seconds, "maybe" 10-12 cars get through the light before it changes red, while 40 to 50 cars are backed up on Harrison all the way back past the Reedy Creek Road intersection. The entire light cycle at this intersection is too short. A longer cycle during morning rush hour would make all the difference in keeping traffic flowing. It seems this kind of jam exists all over the town of Cary. Light cycles make absolutely no sense especially in this case. Does anyone "ever" go out a study the traffic patterns and jam areas like we did "in the old days"???
