Signalling Troubles at East Ave?

Seems that the recent use of the signals at East Ave is not caused from signalling problems but rather an overwhelming desire of DPTI to protect people from all foreseeable risks and hazards. If traffic control staff are not available to manually stop traffic at East Ave (and I imagine other crossings when it suits) then the signals are switched on and the boom gates left down if workers are nearby.As many of you are aware the signals rang continually early on Tuesday morning and again yesterday. Once again not good enough!!
