Motorists face continued delays as seven traffic lights on major A-roads have been taken down, yet 13 weeks of disruption remain ahead. Commuters and drivers can expect the slow grind of traffic light queues and congestion to last through the Christmas season, with potential for further interruptions extending into the new year.
Despite efforts to alleviate the backlog by removing some traffic signals, the roadworks and maintenance projects causing the disruption are set to persist. This means holiday travel and daily commutes will continue to be affected, testing the patience of road users across the region.
Authorities advise travelers to plan journeys carefully, allow extra time for delays, and stay updated on ongoing traffic management schemes. The current situation serves as a reminder that infrastructure improvements often come with challenges, impacting the flow of traffic for extended periods.
