FIXMYSTREET IN CA11 7XT
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of CA11 7XT:
Traffic lights priority, 14th May
There are a set of traffic lights that allow for traffic to come off the motorway and for traffic to continue on the A66. There are three lanes of traffic. If there is no traffic in the left hand lane the lights do not change. I appreciate this may be something to do with wanting traffic off the motorway but at times I have spent 8-10 minutes waiting for these lights to change when nothing is coming off the motorway.

Traffic lights on roundabout at junction between A66 & M6, eastbound, apparently stuck on red morning 6th May, 4.00am, 7th May
The traffic lights where the southbound M6 slip joins onto the eastbound carriageway stick on red. This has happened twice to us early in the morning, 4.00am-ish. The traffic waits for a while, nothing comes up from the M6, but in the end we all just drive through the red lights.

Traffic lights not working at night, 30th April
The traffic lights when you are travelling on the roundabout west to east are not timed correctly or not sensing vehicles at night. The set of lights that are the issue are the ones that hold you back to let the southbound traffic come off the M6. The M6 exit lights permanently stay on green and the roundabout lights stay permanently on red. This has been going on since late last year and people tend to end up jumping the lights because otherwise they end up sitting there waiting for 15 minutes. On Monday 29th April at around 1.30am we sat for 5 minutes with a Police car sat in the next lane - in the end the police car put on their blue lights and blocked the roundabout to enable us to move. This needs sorting or there will be an accident when someone jumps the lights and doesn't see someone coming off the motorway at speed.

Traffic lights timing fault, 21st April
Traffic lights on roundabout J40 Penrith, the lights immediately before the turn in to Penrith which controls traffic on the roundabout merging with traffic leaving the M6 Southbound (NY [phone removed]). Frequently in the mornings at 05:50-06:00 the lights remain on red for several minutes, the next lights around cycle several times. On every occasion vehicles inevitably drive through the red light after waiting for a long time, this could lead to an accident with faster moving traffic merging from the motorway. The lights do change but it takes a long time and by this point numerous cars have beeped horns and driven round you to go through the red light.

Light stays red for up to 5 minites, 30th March
Especially at night, the traffic light stays red, where the slip road of the M6 South joins the a 66. I’m not sure why it does this, perhaps the Sensor is only working on the left-hand lane or something.

Poor traffic light phasing, 21st March
The lights are out of sync with each other and causing bottle necks on and around the roundabout. Vehicles are frustrated at not gaining ease of access when green so then enter roundabout on Amber/red and block other lanes trying to join roundabout. Am sure it has been reported but it really is frustrating when they have worked perfectly before.

Traffic lights sequencing incorrect, 21st March
Traffic lights at Kempley roundabout have been causing huge delays since Monday, 18th of March. Traffic ends up jammed even when there is not heavy traffic and is very congested during peak hours. 15-minute journey from work to home took me 45 minutes on Monday.
