Hey, I just wanted to warn everyone about this intersection. We just left Jason's Deli on Green Oak. We were crossing to turn left on KW drive. Long story short. Both lights were green. Kingwood dr and the cross road, Green Oak. Can you imagine the collision that could have happened if we were not watching the cars on Kingwood drive. I didn't count how long they were both green but it was enough that we waited for four cars before KW light turned Red.
 
Alright now be safe out there. 4951

This happened to my hubby and daughter one day when they were out.  They almost got hit, but were being cautious and taking it slow THANK GOD!  If they had relied on the light, they would have been T boned. 4951

Kingwood Dr & Green Oak -- there's a pretty big childcare facility on Green Oak.  This doesn't sounds good at all.Maybe calling an "action news team" would get this resolved. 4951

When I was a deputy out here in the mid 80's, I investigated an accident at Chestnut Ridge and Kingwood Drive, where witnesses said both lights were  green . So, that is the way I wrote it up. The County Attorney's office and Traffic Engineers told me to change my report, that it was physically impossible for that to happen, it would fail safe to flashing red. They got real **** at me because I would not change my report, until I threatened to arrest both of them for conspiracy to tamper with a government document. 4951

Good Morning,  I'm going to call that 311 number and see what happens. Thank you to whom ever posted that.   I wasn't sure if it was just a one off thing or something more.  However, it appears this is ongoing. It was really scary because if your just barely pulling out Green Oak and a car flying down KW Dr. hits you dead on into the driver door, I can't imagine walking away from that.  It does need to be fixed and if I report it and others before me have reported it, then maybe this will be the one complaint or magic number to get someone out there to fix it.   Shouldn't have to be that way. 4951

For those of you calling 311 about the light, consider calling about some of our growing potholes. I am surprised that when I call to report a problem that they say I am the first to report it.
 
The one in front of KW Meat Market is really getting large. 4003 West Lake Houston. 4951

I emailed our City Council rep and his assistant about it, too...that's pretty crazy. I know a couple times at that intersection I thought I saw people dangerously running a red light, or so I assumed,...but maybe it was the same light timing issue... 4951
