[il-talk] traffic light times

[Gregory D. Rosenberg]

Good afternoon,

I am certain this is not a complete answer, but I hope it helps. I talked to Terry who works with me in the Tinley Park EMA and who monitors the red light cameras.

She found an article from 2010 that says Chicago's yield (hello) lights are three seconds vs four to five seconds in the Suburbs. See: http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2010-03-22/classified/ct-met-yellow-light-20100322_1_red-light-cameras-camera-opponents-red-light-camera-intersections

As far as Terry or I know the green light and red light timings are usually controlled by sensors in the streets in most locations. I could not find and am unaware of any minimum or maximum timings that might be specifically regulated in Chicago.
