City centre traffic still broken as 'major work' required
IT IS still unknown when the traffic lights at the junction of two busy city centre roads will be fixed.
The lights, on Castle Street and Chipper Lane, have been out of order for around a month, and require 'major work'.
Wiltshire councillor Bridget Wayman, cabinet member for highways said: “We are aware there is a fault with these traffic lights which requires major work and we are working with partners to address this issue.”
One of the major issues facing motorists due to the outage is that the view from the right hand turn from Chipper Lane onto Castle Street is blocked off, so drivers have to edge out slowly to see if there is any oncoming traffic.
