"Bicycles Stop on Green"

[Crankin]

These signs are all over Acton, Concord, etc. I also didn't get what it meant, until recently I read about it somewhere. One of the reasons I haven't done the full commute to work from my new house is that there is this one intersection with a light that is on one of those little inclines. The light changes are triggered by cars; there's no sign there about bikes stopping. I envisioned myself there forever at 6 in the morning. In fact, during the last week of school, I saw a cyclist look around and go through the red light because he had been waiting as i was approaching the intersection in my car.
Any other alternative would add a lot of miles to my trip...

Just saw a new road sign in Bedford to replace the confusing "Bicycles stop on line for GREEN". This one said (if I remember correctly) "To request green, bicycles stop on [picture of mark on road]".

Deb -
I've started seeing the new signs too. Unfortunately I haven't been on my bike for any of those sightings - so whether the loop exists in the pavement or not is still an unknown.

Were you able to test the one that you saw?

No, I was in my car. I'll have to ride over there and test it. It's just about 1.5 miles from my work.
