It's a rail corridor - the appropriate standards dictate the warning signal
style. We just can't replace them with ordinary traffic lights. I think
that better compliance would be had by standard traffic signals. The people
that wrote the standards think otherwise. They are professionals. I'm just
'another gunzel'.

When the signal post was replaced, the worksite WAS under "traffic control"
with lane closures and speed restrictions. Saturday's video was observation
that the crossing was functioning correctly under ordinary conditions. No
actual work was undertaken next traffic lanes.
