Murphy recalled one time driving home to cross Main Street at 2 a.m.
“I crossed
Main Street to get home, the light changes red and then I’ve got to sit there
when there’s no other traffic on the street until it goes through the full
cycle,” he said. “Why can’t we just use red as a yield sign, the green as a
north/south? We’ve got the technology now.”
He recently spoke
to council with a suggestion of having red lights blink for yield and green as
go ahead between the hours of 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
Colin Prang,
manager of engineering, said the city is in the process of upgrading the
lights.
