Northern Heights Traffic Signal
Every once in a while I get a complaint about the timing of the traffic signal exiting Northern Heights Drive onto Broadway. The problem has been that the sensing device that would sense your car on N. Heights was very close to the cross-walk and many drivers would not go that close so the light would not change as it should have for them.
MN-DOT controls the light and has been made aware of the problem.
GOOD NEWS! As of the first of the year they have released this as a free running light, that is, it's on a 55 seconds for North/SOuth Broadway and 45 seconds for Northern Heights cycle.
In spring, as weather permits, MN-Dot will cut a new sensing loop at the intersection and will then return it to the "on-demand" light we probably would prefer.
