That was quick, or, good work, oh city

I've been noticing for a several days that a traffic light on my usual route to my workplace has not been displaying the red. It's a redundant light, so I haven't been real worried about it. (There's another one just a few feet away that points in the same direction.)

But this morning I decided it was time to report it to San Diego's Street Division via the City's web site. (This page links to ways to report problems on city streets; I've used it before to report pot holes.) So, I sent that in shortly after getting to my job.

Just a few minutes ago while I was out for an exercise walk, I went past the intersection this traffic light is at. I looked at it, and whoa! The red was displaying. That startled me, but I must assume reports of problems with traffic lights are treated as high priorities.
