Traffic lights again taking very long to change

Reported via desktop in the General Fault category anonymously at 09:05, Tuesday 23 September 2025

Sent to TfL less than a minute later. TfL ref: FMS8201330.

I reported a problem in April about these traffic lights which had suddenly started taking much longer than normal for the pedestrian lights to change (3 times as long as normal, even with no traffic on Bayswater Road).

At the time, the fault was confirmed as correct and the problem was fixed (FMS7418036). However, the problem has recently reoccurred. The pedestrian lights used to change every 30 seconds, but now take several times longer than that (so long that I cross the road anyway and never see them change when looking back). This is despite there being literally no vehicles on Bayswater Road.

Could you investigate again please?
