Editor,
In response to Joanna Felder’s “Bad News/Good News” letter of last week about the pedestrian traffic signal at LCAD, I could not agree more.
The general driving public does not understand the clear meaning of flashing yellow, red, and flashing red. Flashing yellow means caution, red means stop and flashing red means stop and then okay to go if clear.
The signal is very confusing, in addition to the warning signals ahead of the actual signal slowing traffic down. The signal is a consistent bottleneck and slows traffic daily in both directions.
I agree with Johanna, a stop light would be good solution at the entrance and it would be easier for the average driver to understand. I appreciate the speed of the new signal being put in addressing the unfortunate pedestrian death, but it is clear not enough thought was put into the right solution.
As we all know, in Laguna traffic continues to get heavier every year. Let’s solve this problem and help the canyon move again. Thank you.

This light is another City of Laguna Beach F- up
Put in a tunnel or a foot bridge!!!
The school has grown way to fast! The canyon is a disaster at all times of the day.
