That light is a timed light, so regardless of how much traffic, and even if you are the only person sitting at the light, it won't change until it's time runs out.

The question is, how much better would it be if it were (a) were on a trip function so it changed according to traffic flow, or (b) during the non busy times...say 9 pm to 7 am...it was red blinking and treated like a four way stop?

Please, and i'm saying this with no particular person in mind, no snarky comments about being retired, what's the rush, villagers won't figure it out, blahblahblah. If you don't have something meaningful to contribute, please don't waste our time.
visit your congressional representative. Set up an appointment. You' ll probably meet an aide but thats how you get change started and asked to be ccd ( no pun) of the correspondence. Did this with armed services committee member and all of a sudden records i asked for were given over.
