Vehicle detection systems were recently installed at each
intersection, so programmed flash is no longer needed to facilitate traffic
flows. Vehicle detection allows the signals to respond promptly to vehicle
demand. The system will allow for more efficient service during low volumes
times when programmed flash was previously used (1 a.m. to 5 a.m. weekdays and
2 a.m. to 5 a.m. on weekends).

Eliminating programmed flash also provides for 24/7
operation of pedestrian signals at those intersections. Pedestrian signals do
not work during programmed flash.
