Advertiser Staff
A new traffic light will begin normal operations at North School Street in Lanakila fronting St. Theresa's School at 9 a.m. tomorrow.Since Saturday, the signals were constantly flashing to alert motorists of the presence of the lights at a mid-block crosswalk.
A city spokesman said pedestrians who wish to cross must press the button to trigger the walk signal. Community members had been lobbying for a light there for years.
A 92-year-old man was critically injured while using the crosswalk there in March, prompting complaints from those who had been calling for the lights.
