Pointless Red Lights


Recommended Posts

Westheimer at River Oaks Blvd... this light is agonizingly long for no apparent reason. Very frustrating when heading east on Westheimer getting stopped at Buff. Speedway, then this stupid light just a block away.

As far as I can tell only 4 people live on River Oaks Blvd. Definitely a candidate for a roundabout,.....

At least for now, the light at Post Oak Blvd. and BLVD Place Dr. (at least that's what's on the pole there. If you look on a map you won't find it because it doesn't even exist yet.) is pointless. Once BLVD Place is actually built, there will be a use for it, but right now it just stops people on Post Oak for no reason at all.

Also, at South Post Oak Ln. and Westbriar Ln. That light just stops people up on S. Post Oak, and confuses people coming out of the Rice Epicurean parking lot. It used to be a stop sign, and it worked fine. I know they built it expecting an increased traffic load from the Cosmopolitan, but there is never more than one or two cars that go through from the side street at any time.

Odd ones out?

Bissonnet, Banks, Richmond, Alabama, Hawthorne, Westheimer, Fairview, West Gray, West Dallas, Allen Parkway, Washington...

.......Banks, Hawthorne and Fairview. They're all two lane street intersecting Montrose that have their own sets of lights onto Montrose. Hawthorne serves the Disco Kroger, fair enough. Fairview is a busy enough thoroughfare into Midtown. But Banks...?
