Red lights all trhe wayI remember reading an article either here or in the print edition a good while back. According to the article, Fayetteville was spending at least $250,000 for fiber optics to synchronize all the red lights in town thereby cutting traffic tremendously. I've got to say from my own experience that this seems to have been a waste of funds. Although at times(evening 8-10PM) the signals seem good, for the most part we have to stop at every red light along 85 on the way from the court house to the pavilion. I do not believe I have ever seen this thing functional. Such a system would be outstanding if they ever got it to work. Think of all the smog we create just in time spent at red lights being out of the air. Or more directly think of not having to actually stop and sit at every one. I would love either of these items. What are your thoughts on this? Anybody else noticing this? Anybody think I am wrong? What, in your opinion, are the worst lights in town? ShortField's blog | login to post comments |
