I agree with you there Ron, That one & the Dorning St/Frog Lane one are the worst so-called automatic traffic lights around Wigan.
Coming down Beech Hill avenue & wanting to turn right to SLG. if there's more than four vehicles waiting to turn right,that queue blocks the straight thro'/left turn lane.
All that for the sake of a few yards less grass & a bit more tarmac, & so the build-up goes way back up Beech Hill Ave.
When you get a green light, traffic moves down waiting for a clear route to turn right.
Nothing then indicates that the up lane has a red light, once you're past the down lane signal, & so over cautious drivers don't seem to be able to make their minds up, to go or stay. Adding to the queue behind.
Dorning St/Frog Lane....Forget it, such a waste of time digging sensors into the road & expensive switchgear.
Sit on Dorning St & wait for none existant traffic to pass for a few minutes, then the lights may, if you're lucky ,be one of the three/four cars allowed through.
They should have sensors to weed out the brain dead & spoon fed in the Politburo*, who are doing their level best to ruin OUR town in every way they can..

*politburo?. That's the wedding cake on the corner of Mesnes Field. Recognised because of it's contents...Fruit & Nuts..
