While there is now a set of traffic lights for bikes here, I find that the sensor rarely picks up bikes, and often I have to run a red (or, go with the pedestrian crossing).

CoS should change the light programming, so that the bike light is green whenever the eastbound Wilson St traffic light is green. No need for a sensor.

This has definitely been fixed, the terrible timing of the bike lanterns probably needs to be reported as a separate thing (and forwarded to the RMS).
