Temporary traffic lights causing accidents in Syracuse
WSYR 9 is reporting that some temporary traffic lights in the city of Syracuse, NY are so poorly placed that they are actually causing accidents. The issue seems to stem from the fact that other lights are placed above the intersection at other junctions, but the temporary lights are mounted to the side, on poles. The temporary light poles were erected to replace the previous light poles, which were so deteriorated that they came crashing down a few months ago.
