This is still an issue. The traffic light for traffic going northbound on The Ridgeway only lets a maximum of 3 cars through on green causing queues even during off-peak times. Looks to have been reported multiple times but closed off. The issue is still present on Mon 26h Sep - please investigate and watch the traffic if need be. This is causing traffic queues, more cars to divert through small residential routes and delaying on buses.

Google Maps live traffic view showing long queues on The Ridgeway going back towards South Harrow, even though other approaches to the junction of The Ridgeway/Imperial Drive being relatively clear. Map also shows increased traffic on Alfriston Avenue as drivers seek alternative routes through smaller roads. When will this be fixed?

The traffic lights at The Ridgeway/Imperial Drive continue to be faulty. This is causing long delays backing up towards South Harrow. Cars are dangerously overtaking on the main road to try and cut the traffic and are driving at speed through residential side roads. Please can this be looked urgently before an accident happens!

The issue with the south/east bound direction of the Ridgeway getting up to 25seconds despite there being no traffic, is still ongoing. North/west bound gets less than 10 seconds, there are significant queues.

Issue is still ongoing with green light from the direction of "The Ridgeway" only lasting at most 5-6 seconds on each cycle of the lights.... yesterday evening I spent over 6 minutes in the queue despite the queue only stretching back as far as Elm Drive. Over the last few days I've observed buses trying to bypass some of the queue by using the right turn lane even though they want to go straight on, and drivers repeatedly continuing through the lights after they have started to change... both of which increase the chance of accidents occurring

This is still not fixed and northbound traffic building up causing huge tailbacks. Now people are trying to get across the lights in the right hand only lane, and cutting in, because the lights only change for a couple of seconds. This can cause an accident. It has been like this for about 6 weeks please can it be fixed.
