Starting in late 2015, work was underway to add a new pedestrian/bike path along the south side of the road.  This would include new signals for the road and new signals for the pathway.  By early 2016, the eastern signal had been replaced but not the western one yet.

The new eastern signal.  It actually had quite a bit of stuff transferred from the old signal, including the lights, gate, and track sign.

By later in 2016 the upgrade was completed.  Surprisingly, the same bungalow was reused.
