This intersection really needs an overhaul. Timing can only account for so much and ever increasing traffic backs up vehicles down to Welles and Rutter Ave during peak times. Not to mention traffic that backs up towards the Cross Valley.

The timing or sensors of the Durkee St. and Wyoming Ave intersection need calibrating. During the work week, the sensors appear to hold the Durkee St traffic at a standstill for 5+ minutes, to the point some drivers turning left just run the light when traffic clears.
On weekends, the sensors pick up vehicles almost immediately so obviously they work. Understandably Wyoming Ave gets priority, but other lights coming off side streets in this area do not have such long wait times.

This area, and Wilkes-Barre Township in general throughout the entire retail area, really needs improvements regarding pedestrian walkways. There are numerous dead-end sidewalks or crosswalks that lead to nowhere.
There are frequently pedestrians on the small shoulders of busy roadways in and around this area because of this. Actually completing sidewalks to connect to existing ones and providing clear walkways throughout the area would dramatically improve safety for pedestrians.

Too much street parking on what is basically little more than an alley

Make “no left turn off of the bridge”coming into West Pittston a priority! There are several close calls every day and it sometimes backs traffic up all the way over the bridge into Pittston. Currently it’s a dangerous situation for motorists, pedestrians & cyclists.

To much fast traffic in a residential and business area. Maureen’s and the Heights cause a lot of slowing down and traffic. So many blind spots. Cars are coming up way to fast both lanes.

Rain run off or water constantly flows on to the street. It becomes a sheet of ice every winter. Causes vehicles to slide into traffic.

Stop sign is hidden behind brush and trees. I almost got hit more than a few times by vehicles not seeing the stop sign. Needs to be trimmed.

Huge backups every weekend turning into Walmart. Light either needs to be longer or adjusted.

This train overpass is about to collapse big chunks of rusted metal from the support beams are missing or fell off. Some innocent person is going to lose their life passing under this bridge.
