Description

The pedestrian signals at the intersection of Temple and Elm are out of whack and no-longer automatic, which they have been for ten years, now for some reason necessitating the pedestrian press a button and wait perplexingly two cycles. I have crossed that intersection every day for ten years and the signals were quite rightly automatic. Now, many pedestrians are jaywalking and/or confused by this dysfunction, right at one of the busiest intersections of the city where we just had a pedestrian death.
