Erb and Bridgeport already are at major cross roads like Weber, Regina, King, etc. But some idiot planner decided that minor cross roads like Bluevale and Ellis would be on sensors rather than part of the green wave so if you get caught by a red at one of those, even if you're trying to do 50 all along, you still get delayed.
City hall idiots
This might be something to bring up with the region (I believe Bridgeport and Erb belong to them?). Having experienced Bridgeport and Erb as a driver, pedestrian, cyclist, transit user, I know just how bad it can get. Given Bridgeport additionally only has crosswalks instead of full intersection control at Peppler and Devitt, it means a very long stretch between Weber and Regina for high speeds to be achieved.
