The traffic light set up by the Magistrates Court/Princes Street.  They don't seem to be synched properly meaning there's quite a long delay when all lights are red and everyone is just sitting there.

Yep, I bitched about it months ago and got no responses. Smiley

It's why I now refuse to go in the town centre and why I hate Swindon council even more than I did. I despise them more than Bono.

Are you suggesting taking out a perfectly functional roundabout and replace with a shitty restricted junction hasn't improved the town centre.

Oh yeah, you're right.

I know, there's no logic to it.  I used to go straight over the roundabout that was by Jurys Inn and up Princes Street to get to work.  Now I have to go left and do a big loop round the back past Spring Garden car park and come out further up by the Council offices otherwise I have to double back and then sit at traffic lights.   Loads of people do the same and it's turning that area by the Council offices into a rat run. It wouldn't surprise me if they block it off soon.

The intention was to get people to use alternative routes into the Town centre, but all they've done is cause further congestion along Fleming Way because of the number of cars now turning at the roundabout up to Spring Gardens or doubling back at the roundabout to get onto Princes Street.

Princes Street is now gridlocked because of the number of cars always waiting to turn right at the courts to get back onto Fleming Way.

All in all, a complete fuck up.

As the town grows the need for a decent park and ride network does too. The mess made of the scrapped ones was pathetic. The town centre just aint worth driving to-through at times.

I don't think we do right now. Never had a problem getting parked on a Saturday, and its not that busy getting in from this way. But crappy traffic systems don't help.

Imagine a whole country doing it. I'd never really seen the virtues of gun ownership before moving to china.
