Lakewood Mayor Ray Coles Responds to Your ‘Ask The Mayor’ Questions: Turning Light

The following is an ‘Ask The Mayor’ question submitted to TLS, and the Mayor’s response. Email your questions for the Mayor to [email protected].

Question:

Hi Mr. Mayor

Thank you so much for all that you do for the community and for this forum, Where the residents of Lakewood can Voice their concerns and questions. Is it possible to look into Central Avenue/Lakewood new Egypt Road regarding the left turn signal. It seems that there is no sensor at the light to see if cars are actually turning and the green left arrow Always turns on for a long time. If there’s anyway that this could be looked into, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Again

Response from Mayor Coles:

Sorry for the delay in responding. Just received this from the county

The detection for the left turns is being added, should be completed within the next 2 weeks. The signal will still cycle though since we do not have push buttons and need the signal to change to allow pedestrians to cross.
