In San Jose, the pedestrian pushed the button requesting permission to cross. I did that myself to reach the southbound loading platform, and, sure enough, during the number of seconds I was allowed to cross the street and tracks in the median, all rail and street traffic on North First Street had to stop. Absent a pedestrian pushing the button, the system would flip green for approaching streetcars.--- In Nassau County, NY, with 6-lane Sunrise Hwy, a pedestrian is given about 40 seconds to cross safely, presumably because the system allows for slower elders. The NY 27 traffic is held for the pedestrian. If no pedestrian pushes the walk button, a car tripping the loop will get about 25 seconds. --- Before 6 a.m. the buttons work instantly. During normal traffic hours, it seems the system waits for a break in NY 27 flow before throwing them a red signal. In times of crush traffic, the wait to get a signal allowing crossing the highway is about 130 seconds. |
