The lights on Philip Street eastbound do not respond to the presence of a bicycle in the left lane (never in my experience over two years). The pedestrian lights crossing Wilde Avenue on the north side are not in sync with the road lights. I have several times sat through a complete cycle of red lights even though the pedestrian lights let pedestrians across. Action requested - change the sensitivity of the switching mechanism in the left land or synchronise the vehicel and pedestrian lights (that way I will get across some of the time).

Traffic signals are under the care and control of RMS. Accordingly, I have discussed this with RMS. RMS advised that detectors do not respond to bicycles (except on bicycle lanes). Bicyclists are to cross road as pedestrians using the pedestrian phase.

Thanks Saniya
Must be traffic light age or design specific. From observation I'm sure that I can trip the sensors on some lights. I thought there was a sensivity setting?
Usually if I get stuck I wait for a car to come and trip the sensor rather than dismount and use the pedestrian lights.
