As reported by the City of Frisco, the intersection at Custer Road and Gartner Road/Paradise Drive is getting a tech upgrade with a new set of traffic lights. These lights were turned on in flashing mode yesterday, according to the City of Frisco, and come tomorrow, they will become a fully operational part of your driving experience.
For now, if you're cruising down Custer Road, don't hit the brakes too hard—you'll see a flashing yellow light, which doesn't require you to stop. But take note, those driving along Gartner Road and Paradise Drive will need to respect the flashing red and continue to make a full stop, just like you would at a stop sign. This should change tomorrow when the signal is set for full activation and the current stop signs bid their farewell.
City officials are calling for extra vigilance in the area, urging drivers to be cautious as everyone gets used to this new addition. It's common for traffic patterns to cause a bit of confusion when they first change, so keep an eye out for both the signal and your fellow drivers as you navigate the junction.
