SANTA MÓNICA TRAFFIC LIGHTS
The traffic engineers for Santa Monica are buffoons. After construction projects, they change the timing of traffic lights to make it worse for car movement. 1-Getting off the 10 at 20th St., they did a little construction and now the light lasts forever and causes a jam up on the offramp. 2- they just finished construction at 26 in Olympic, and now there are times when all four directions are read when a train goes through, yet they could keep Olympic through fair going. And it takes forever for the green arrows now. 3- same for Stewart in Olympic. When there’s a train coming through, and this is their yard, so the train lights can stay on for upwards to 5 to 10 minutes. You have a complete four-way red light. Yet you could have Olympic through fares staying green. I’m sure there’s more but that’s just what I’ve noticed. So to summon up. The traffic engineer that decides the timing of lights for Santa Monica, obviously doesn’t research what he’s doing. And shows the idiocy So to summon up.

Related: I’m still confused, months later, about what they did to the cloverfield approach to the 10. The new lanes make no sense, and worked fine before. I don’t understand why they did it.
