The newly installed traffic signals on Main Street at its intersection with Church Street will operate in flashing mode from July 20-23, the state Department of Transportation announced Tuesday.
The temporary measure aims to alert drivers to the new signals that will serve as traffic control measures at the intersection.
Traffic signals facing Main Street will be flashing yellow. Drivers are not required to stop during the yellow flashing indication but should slow down, proceed with caution and remain alert, the department said.
Those facing Church Street will be flashing red, which should be treated as a stop sign.
The signals will be turned on and in normal operation after morning peak hour traffic on July 24.
Message boards will be placed at both sides of the project on Main Street to notify drivers of the new traffic signals. DOT advised patience and caution when moving through the area as everyone becomes used to the new signals.
