From my experience crossing at either Chambers, Warren or Murray every morning on my way to the WFC, their prime concern is moving the traffic through as quickly as possible sometimes waving traffic through red lights leaving pedestrians waiting on the corner until they feel like letting you cross. One of them even had the nerve to yell at the pedestrians to hurry up so the cars could make the left turn from Chambers onto West Street. Their concern is not pedestrian safety it is getting as many cars through the neighborhood as quickly as possible. I think the crossing guards are a waste of money.
