I agree completely with this comment. Most places signal timing is done with the main scoring metric of reducing vehicle delay. Pedestrians are just an after thought that can be squeezed into a vehicle specific timing plan. As an example, how often do you see a pedestrian scramble, walk signals in all directions, outside of somewhere like Time Square?

Some of the problematic intersections in Atlanta have slowly been replaced with scrambles, and it's amazing as a pedestrian. I hope to see more and more of those!
