Thank you for reporting your concern to City of Cambridge via Commonwealth Connect. We have reviewed the information you provided our staff and will be investigating this issue further. This has been received as Service Request #10154.
I also just drove through here around 9pm. As soon as the straight green arrow lit, all the cars in the right hand lane started going. And every car in line continued following the car in front of them, straight through the red turn arrow.
Thank you for brining this to our attention. We have instructed our signal contractor to make a few adjustments, including installing a No Turn on Red sign adjacent to the right turn arrow, above the lane.
Does Engineering go out and visually monitor the traffic conditions, across different times of day, after implementing new traffic patterns? I know you can't be everywhere all at once, but a lot of the issues being raised here makes it seem like once the lines were painted and the signals activated, the project was just marked done and forgotten about. So much so that you didn't even stick around long enough to remove the "coming soon" part from the digital sign.
Once signed up for the mailing list, you will be notified of upcoming activities related to the project. More work remains before the project is complete, including the installation of flex-posts, precast curbs, additional lane markings and intersection treatments and adjustments to signage and signal indications.
"Coming Soon" will be removed from the digital message board.
