I am a resident of Hangleton, Hove, and a frequent user of the route from Hangleton via Hangleton Road to Portslade and other locations.
I have in recent months become very frustrated by what seems to be a total lack of co-ordination at the traffic lights at the junction of Old Shoreham Road, Hangleton Road and Carlton Terrace relative to the flow of traffic.
There have been many occasions when the north-to-south flow allows only three or four vehicles through, whereas other directions are favoured with five times as many.
I have seen the junction being monitored by observers armed with clipboards on several occasions, which makes me think
I am not the only driver to notice the problem. However, rather than improving, it seems to be getting worse.
Surely the computer which controls this set of traffic lights must be able to do better? Like others I have seen, I have resorted to rat runs to avoid this set of lights.
I am sure I am not alone in my frustration and would value the opinion of others.
