Power goes out there once in a while and traffic doesn't back up like that.............as if traffic would flow better without the lights there at all. Just put up linking reds and be done with it
Way to go Albert!!!!! Someone finally spoke loud enough for the city to hear them.......Congratulations on making the front page of our local newspaper "The Times-News" for today, March 13, 2011............i live in frostburg, but my mother lives on Arch Street and my sister a few streets prior....that light is horrid!!! Thank you :)
Even though I am not from Cumberland, I travel this way a lot from Winchester and I really hate this light. I would like to see a new light come in with better timing someday really soon.
This light does suck....Ive lived on arch street for most of my life and my mother still does live there....we would do anything to avoid these lights! Good POINT!
I've been at that a hundred times. It's a long light on the e/w due to the n/s road (va ave) is one lane and is at near 100% at most times of the day. People tell me rt28 is a 11-12 minute wait during 6:30-9 am.
I live close to this, I don't see this light in my everyday travel but every time I have to go into Cumberland I DREAD having to go anywhere near Virginia ave. I've sat at this light for more than 2and a half minutes before and it is utterly ridiculous when the traffic volume is high as in high noon and late afternoon. I think that this needs to be fixed asap. It'll save us money and it would bring more development into the surrounding area.
I used to live there and work at Cumberland Airlines 1982-1986 that brings back old memories!

I lived in Cumberland about 20 years ago and the Virginia Avenue traffic light was bad then.
