If you just got home from work, you were probably sitting at a couple red lights on your way home wondering “why is this light taking so long to change”. Is there actually an exact time between a red light and green light? It seems like it’s forever, but according to the National Association of City Transportation officials the amount of time for a light to remain red before turning to green is about 60 to 90 seconds. I will never be lower than 60 never gonna be more than 90. It does feel much longer sometimes but that’s pretty much the average time.
