Officials stated though that there will be times when motorists will be sitting at a red light when it is clear to make a left or go straight.

They said the traffic signal was not installed for convenience but for vehicle and pedestrian safety.

The signal also communicates with the signal at Welsh Road and Blair Mill Road so normally there shouldn’t be any issues.

"But we all know technology, it is great as long as it’s working correctly," township officials said.

Anyone with any issues at either intersection should call the township's Public Works Department at 215-672-6913.
