Motorists brace for more delays as temporary traffic lights return to Shurdington Road, causing frustration among drivers in Cheltenham.
This week, two sets of temporary lights are causing more delays. One set is at the Leckhampton Lane junction for new electricity work. The other is near Bath Road for maintenance by Severn Trent Water.
The Leckhampton Lane lights are up until Friday, and they’re already causing long waits. Mornings are especially tough for those heading into Cheltenham.
The second set of lights will be active on Wednesday, but they’re timed to avoid rush hour. Still, it’s a hassle for everyone.
People are sharing their frustrations online. One person joked about missing the lights, while another said it feels “absolutely endless.”
And guess what? More lights are coming next week too. They’ll be on Kidnappers Lane and Woodlands Road for trial holes related to new homes being built.
So, if you’re driving in the area, be prepared for more delays. It looks like this traffic light saga isn’t ending anytime soon.
