Since Tuesday the 3 different sets of traffic lights on the roundabout above the A1 are out of sync, when the 1st set turns green the next 2 follow suit allowing rush hour traffic to get out of the city and onto the A1, this week when the 1st set turn green the next set turn red and when the 2nd set turn green the 3rd set turn red, this has caused 30 minute tailbacks up Ponteland Road plus traffic jams on kenton Road and Etal Lane during rush hour. When the 1st set turn green only a few cars can get out due to the 2nd set switching to red.

The traffic light has been moved so can't be seen by drivers, 14th March

Tue, 14 Mar 2023 10:18:28 +0000
54.995522 -1.681317

The traffic light has been moved so can't be seen by drivers coming around the roundabout. This is if you're coming around the roundabout to join A1 North. This has nearly caused at least two accidents that I have witnessed in the last 7 days. I believe the lights may have moved due to the wind. Due to the lights only being in operation during rush hour this is also adding to the lack of driver attention.
