TRAFFIC LIGHTS AT OVER FARM

National Highways have informed me that the issues affecting the traffic signals at the access to Over Farm are now resolved.

National Highways have said: “Our technology team have investigated the signals remotely and identified a fault with the signal detection equipment. This was causing the signals to cycle approximately every 30 seconds. This is a fault with the traffic signals and it is independent of the Over deck refurbishment scheme.”

I am pleased this has been resolved, but the disruption you all experienced trying to get to work, to hospital, and to other commitments is not ok. I will be in further discussions with National Highways following today’s severe disruption.
