A suspended stop and go signal was ordered for the City of
Minot in August of 1939. Some years
before a post type signal was tried in Minot. It was located at the
intersection of Main Street and Central Avenue. The use of this signal was discontinued
as most drivers ignored it and a number of drivers ran into it. The
installation of the signal light was an experiment at the intersection of 2nd
Street and 4th Avenue Northwest, (now known as Broadway and 4th
Avenue), at the north end of the overpass. The signal weighed about 115 pounds
and was equipped with red, yellow and green lights. It was timed with 30 second
intervals on the north-south lanes and 20 second intervals on the east-west
lanes. The signal went into operation on September 16, 1939. Motorists were
given time to get used to the signal. Violators were not arrested on the first
day. The signal was in operation 7 days a week, (yes, Sundays included), from 7
am to 1 am. The experiment proved to be successful as signals were also ordered
for: Central Avenue and Second Street West, Central Avenue and Main Street,
Central Avenue and Third Street East, Main Street and First Avenue and Main
Street and Fourth Avenue, (Burdick Expressway.) By the end of 1939, these
additional signals were installed and operating.
