We have raised our concerns about the amount of time the right hand filter operates for people turning from Park Lane into Tunstall Road.
At the moment it only allows 2 vehicles to safely turn right.
We have spoken to Councillor Christina Jebb requesting a review to be carried out to see if the time can be extended as we see this as a safety issue.
Councillor Jebb has written to Highways department
regarding this matter but we have not received any further communication.

We have been informed that Chief Inspector Maskrey has agreed to discuss our concerns further with David Greatbatch of Highways Department. Although we have been told by Inspector Crowther that a change is unlikely, we have been advised by Councillor Jebb that this item has been prioritised so it should soon come up for further discussion.

A letter from David Greatbatch, states that in his opinion the time delay should not be extended as this would have a detrimental effect on the overall operation of the traffic lights. We will keep this on file and remind them when an accident occurs, as safety was always the reason for our request.
