Temporary lights at Telford roundabout are going

Temporary traffic lights around a busy roundabout in Telford will be removed tomorrow.

Published

Drivers going around Limekiln Bank roundabout in Priorslee have faced weeks of misery after roadworks began at the end of May as part of a programme of road improvements around the borough.

The four-way lights, which have caused major delays for drivers since April, will be removed tomorrow evening.

But the road will still have lane closures and bollards to make way for the continuation of the work.

Limekiln Bank is one of six roundabouts which is being improved as part of the Telford growth point package.

Work at Limekiln Bank includes widening the roundabout and improving the entry and exit arms to provide additional capacity.

The scheme will also see the installation of a signal-controlled crossing for pedestrians across Telford Way and replacement of street lighting, traffic signs and bollards.
