Description
This passage has only two lights (of 5) in the pedestrian area. The passage is also particularly dark in the day. It feels dangerous to travel through on a bike (on the road portion) because it seems that cars entering the underpass from full sunlight are temporarily blinded as their drives adjust to the dark area. I think a case could be made to leave the light on in the day to avoid accidental collision between bikers and cars.

The lights are on 24x7 since late last week, and certainly have been on during the day. If you go by and the lights are not on, please post back here with the date and time that you observed the lights being out.
We are installing new fixtures where the fixtures have been vandalized (the cause of the outage noted in the original post). Once we receive the new fixtures and the work has been scheduled I will post back with an expected completion.
