Traffic signal timing on city streets

Summary

Councilmember Dinan demanded the budget include a consultant to fix mistimed traffic signals — bad backups on Runnymede, University, Embarcadero, and East Bayshore that cost commuters 45 minutes getting through town. Public works has no signal-timing expert on staff.
