My request was limited to the possibility of reworking the signaling so
that all traffic lights are red when the pedestrian walk light is on,
rather than the current situation where the pedestrian walk light is on at
the same time as the green light for people coming out of Hannaford. I
think that is where most of the problem is, as Leelee is saying.

When you say right turn on red Dennis, you mean the lane heading INTO the
parking lot? In my opinion as long as the people are vigilant and visible
in the crosswalk, I would say leave it as is. When I'm in a crosswalk on a
road with more then one lane, I ALWAYS slow down and wait before continuing
so that everyone sees me. Again, just my opinion. I'd like to see red
lights in all directions when crosswalk signal is deployed; I always panic
when traffic's coming out of Hannaford Drive and turning left.

Re: Advocacy for Hannaford Crosswalk. Should we include
No Right Turn on Red ? Or would that cause more problems.
If the Winter continues like the past two weeks, we do not want to have
any Pedestrians being caught in a bad situation at that Intersection, most
certainly, a young Father or Mother with children crossing WCD, with
groceries.

Eric and Ethan,
Hopefully you've noticed some recent discussion on the list about the
pedestrian signal at the crosswalk on William Clarke Drive at Hannaford
Drive. Are you able to give us any initial indication of the effort and
process involved if we wanted to advocate for that to be changed to the
type where vehicular traffic is stopped in all directions while the
pedestrian walk signal is on? (I forget the official name of that.) Thanks
for any advice you can give us.
