The. Problem is too many streets where the lights are not synchronized, or even synchronized well above the speed limit

My town redid a major street during COViD to cut it from 2 lanes down to one thru lane plus turn lanes. They also synchronized the lights. It’s so much calmer of a street now, and we get through much faster.

They did a lousy job trying to add a bike lane but I guess that’s all you can hope for when the pavement was unchanged
