Dangerously long time on red at night/ early morning
Sent to TfL less than a minute later. TfL ref: FMS8098523.
The phasing of the lights changes after midnight til around 6am and the lights stay red coming from grange Road for an unusually long time which a) means you get cars beeping their horns b) makes people think the lights are out / stuck on red so they jump the lights into the always busy tower bridge road and c) pressures people to jump the red lights who have someone flashing or beeping behind them
I see people in cars AND BUSES give up waiting and jump the lights nearly every time I have to stop at them during the change in phasing times - sometimes it’s red for over 10mins - it’s dangerous - please sort this out - thanks
