Light Brigade To The Rescue

Michael from Trentham

UHCC recognises the issue ( good) and has the answer (bad).
The railway crossing south of UH rail station coupled with the four directional roundabout a few metres east is causing traffic congestion all round and the situation will simply get much worse with increase rail transport and much increased traffic.
The most obvious solution is a vehicular underpass (such as the one created south of Silverstream rail station many years ago) or an over head vehicular bridge.

But no. UHCC see resolving the situation is in removing the round about and in its place installing a set of traffic lights.

While this will go a little way towards some alleviation of the traffic snarl, it does nothing to address the lines of traffic held back by wooden arms waiting for trains to go from either direction at a greatly increased frequency.

But to the person who screamed that the UHCC would not do anything, I guess that person is mistaken.
