Fixed
3-year Temporary Traffic Lights
Reported via desktop in the Temporary Traffic Light Fault category anonymously at 13:47, Tue 22 November 2022
Sent to Shropshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14100666.
A529 between Swanbach and Adderley. Dear sir or Madam, Why has the a529 on the above stretch of road had temporary traffic lights on now for 3 years? We have to endure this on a frequent basis. The lights don’t work properly and cars frequently jump them, which is a safety issue to other drivers. It’s not reasonable that you have failed to repair the road (or whatever the problem is) for 3 years. Adderley is on the very edge of your district so is this the reason that you ignore this issue? I look forward to receiving your response.

I want to report for the second time the these temporary traffic lights on the a529 have failed again. Care and trucks were jumping the lights this morning 7/12/22. This is a serious safety hazard. Why are you taking so long to reply and more importantly taking so long to repair this stretch of road? It is unacceptable that road users are subjected to such a long and apparently progress less road restriction whilst you have done nothing to repair the failed traffic lights situation. I look forward to a quick response. If there is an accident due to traffic jumping the lights I will be forced to make my complaint to you public.

It hasn’t been fixed, I drove past 5 mins ago. And why are they still here? All the cones are smashed in the road. Why is there still roadworks here

I drove past this area 2 hours ago. The lights do not sense that vehicles are waiting travelling from audlem towards Adderley. Some drivers may be getting frustrated and jumping the lights.
The cones that are supposed to mark the carriage way are all over the road and do not provide any safety guidance at all.
This problem is not resolved so I do not understand why you have sent an email to say that it is.
