Is it just me or does the street light at the Dymot / Tremaine intersection take FOREVER to change when you are turning left from Dymot onto Tremaine. I timed it the other day and it took over 3 minutes to change which is absolutely ridiculous. There are a lot of people that use Dymot in the morning to get to Tremaine to head into Oakville and Burlington. This light needs to change more frequently! Zeeshan can someone be sent to check this out to fix it or adjust it otherwise I will just have to start running the red light when I see nothing but tumbleweeds on Tremaine.

Its not so bad. Now, the light at the end of Tremaine turning left on Dundas, that light pisses me off ! Stays red for like 5 mins at least and stays green for less than 10 seconds.

They should of put a roundabout at this intersection. It would of made the most sense, hence why they didn't do it. lol

I have a feeling the sensor isn't in at the intersection yet and will be once they do the final coat.
I may be wrong but just an idea. I agree it takes a while. Wish after 9pm it was a blinking yellow for all way traffic. One thing I love about Stratford at night and it works! An intersection like this at night would make sense.

In my opinion they should just remove the traffic lights and install stop signs. Just make it a 3-way stop...not enough traffic to warrant traffic lights...

I was excited about LSL opening as a route east through the town. Its OK for now but they have a stoplight up every 100 meters but they aren't connected yet. Once those bad boys come online they will have LSL ground down to a crawl in no time. I'm not sure I understand why every single chicken $hiet street has to have a light to turn left on the major street. Why don't we reduce the number of intersections on the major roads by 50% and allow right turns only. Route the traffic through secondary streets.

Milton is trying to keep it's crown of having the most traffic lights per km of road.
