READER REPORT: California/Genesee crosswalk light broken again

Last week we heard from Taylor about a malfunction with the flashing beacon signal for the crosswalk on California at Genesee. They reported it to SDOT, and it got fixed. But now we’ve heard from Jesse that it’s broken again: “Just a heads up, the pedestrian crossing signal at California and Genesee isn’t working. I’ve reported it to the city, but if people want to cross they should probably go a block either way to do so safely.” (Besides the Find It Fix It app, you can report transportation-related trouble via 206-684-ROAD or, after hours, 206-386-1218.)

    Good luck! I’ve reported the malfunctioning traffic light at 47th and Admiral at least a dozen times. Not fixed yet.

    Isn’t the flashing beacon crosswalk at California and Dakota? They have a regular traffic light crosswalk at California and Genesee.

      Yeah, I’m sorry, I think you’re right. The “beacon” elaboration was mine. Fixing.

Sorry, comment time is over.
