Signal 2004A: Pulaski Road at Park Avenue

Signal 2004A is a traffic signal located at the intersection of Pulaski Road and Park Avenue in Huntington Station. It is one of four town owned traffic signals in the Town of Huntington with red light cameras.

History
Signal 2004A is currently in its second known construction, however there may have been some prior to those known. The first know signal was an incad bulb one with protective and permissible left turns on green.The second, and one being currently used, only allows protected left turns in all directions.

The upcoming Park Avenue pedestrian project, possibly starting in 2020, will see some modifications made to the signal, or maybe a full rebuild. All PED heads will most likely be upgraded to 16x16 size with countdowns, ramps will be installed, and new pushbutton assemblies will be built. There are no confirmed plans at this time.

Design
The 4-way signal at the intersection of Park Avenue and Pulaski Road is designed by Suffolk County, in its current design, the signal is unique in which it look completely symmetrical. There are left and right turn signals on all sides of the intersection with Ped head crosswalks on each side. One of the 2-way heads (without the bi-model arrow), is actually a slightly different signal head than the rest. All lights are colored LEDs, which dates the signal back to the late 2000's when colored LEDs were used for a brief period. The signal is also equipped with Red light cameras covering all directions, but right turns on red are permissible.

2004A's cabinet is a Caltrans 332, one of two county signals in the Town of Huntington utilizing this type of cabinet and one of three Town maintained signals utilizing this type of cabinet. A 2070 controller operates the signal and this is the location of a cable drop for the Pulaski/Park closed loop system. 2087A to the west and 2041A to the east connect to 2004A via underground cables while 2196A connects via a wireless radio mounted to the top of the northwestern span pole.
