One set of flashing lights on West Highway 50 is back to normal operations after a recent city of Emporia project.
Over the last two weeks, city crews installed new wire for the traffic signal at Sixth and Rural. The project also installed new LED traffic lights, new detection cameras and new components in the intersection’s traffic cabinet.
More work to install public safety equipment is possible Tuesday.
With this project completed, the city continues to keep the stoplight at Sixth and Congress operating in flashing mode until further notice. City Communications Manager Christine Johnson says the light needs to stay operational with the potential “to put it back in full service based upon concept ideas for development of adjacent property.”
