You can live with it. Oakland had only a flashing signal at their 202 south end, then one at 202/Franklin Avenue.

Oakland has had 5 full traffic signals on Rt 202 for many years:

At the south end, East Oak Street, W. Oakland Ave, Rt 287 NB ramp, and Franklin Avenue. The one at W. Oakland Ave has been there at least 30 years (likely more), and the others have also been there a long time.

Grew up in the '50s with 1 kpeople, then 208's completion to '70s 15 kpeople. 287's tearing a gash in the mountain was later.
