these signals have gotten so messed up recently i don't know why. i've been reporting them via the webform but nothing is getting done

i consistently see red light for cars, no trains. 30-60 seconds pass. train comes and approaches intersection. car traffic light turns green, train light is go.

this has been 3, 1 of those times the car traffic light suddenly turned red (i think it did show yellow but literally went green yellow red in less than 2 seconds).

I have been seeing this so incredibly frequently around the intersection of Greene St and 2nd St.

It's only a matter of time until a car or delivery bike gets hit...

They’ve always been like this.

They’ll be green when a train is coming, and red when there isn’t even a train running due to track maintenance.

You can’t really rely on the lights. You just need to look for train traffic.
