Traffic lights problems in Coalpit Heath

Some have queried why long queues have been building up at the Henfield Road/Badminton Road/Beesmoor Road traffic lights in Coalpit Heath.

Claire Young raised this with a Street Care manager. He explained that the detection loops buried in the road were damaged due to the surfacing works. When the surfacing is complete, new ones will be installed. In the meantime, they rely on historic data, which may have been influenced by the half term holiday resulting in lower than average traffic flows. The contractors are being contacted to ensure the system is operating as well as it can in the circumstances.
