New information has appeared on the website of the Department of Transport and Communications of Moscow about the additional equipment of roads by traffic lights. It is planned that next year 121 new automatic traffic controller will appear in the city. At the same time, 67 current traffic lights for blind pedestrians will be adapted. They will appear in different areas of the capital, because there are several thousand people in the city of poor vision in the city.
All work will be carried out by a special organization from the road economy, for which, perhaps, the necessary workwear will be sewn. However, the workers themselves do not really hope for a new uniform and put their old overalls in order.
According to representatives of the road department, road optimization in the metropolis will also occur due to the equipment of 34 traffic lights with a special signal for pedestrians. Thus, each person will be able to switch the device to red, by pressing a special button. At the same time, a “walking person” will appear at a traffic light for those who are not driving. “Levers” of such controls on the roads will also install people in special clothing.
It is assumed that since 2011 in Moscow, traffic lights will be established not only at the request of the traffic police, but also at the request of the townspeople, who will determine the most complicated road segments. So, for example, traffic on Vernandsky Avenue in the area of house No. 79 and on a clear passage will be adjusted – near house No. 10.
Today in Moscow there are about two thousand traffic lights, but they cannot cope with the regulation of the movement of dozens of cars. Combines travel in the warm season and people who are worn by workwear. They hastily fly potholes and bumps in front of the approaching rainy season.
However, the aspirations of road workers are not understood by ordinary motorists, because the holes heated and carelessly in a month will turn into insurmountable obstacles and will create new traffic jams on the roads. So it turns out, according to drivers, that two problems in our country will never disappear, and one will constantly create another.
