This is a busy road near its busy intersection with Treat Boulevard.

The light seems to change as soon as one person pushes the "walk" button.

A couple dozen cars will often pile up while one or two bicyclists or walkers cross the street.

The signal should be there for the safety of the pedestrians and bicyclists but can't we delay the changing of the signal so that a group of people cross the street at one time instead of just one or two?
