After tonight's meeting I checked if the light at Mountaineer Station was actuated by bicycle.

In short, I believe it is actuated by a bicycle. It looks like the wait time is around 1:15 for an approach "mid-cycle", with a maximum wait of 2mins if you arrive at the yellow light. The light does not seem to cycle at all if no vehicles are present.

Here is the data I collected for every vehicle that made a left hand turn. I think some right hand turning cars initiated the timer before a left hand approached. I think bike times are higher than avg because I approached very quickly after the cycle. I collected this on 2/2/12 between 8:25 and 9:00pm. I positioned myself at the center of the stop bar for a left hand turn, wearing a red jacket, blue jeans and helmet light.
