10 whole years… therefore surely a celebration is in order? Or perhaps not, I suppose it depends on whether you have to endure what are seemingly an expensive and pointless set of roadworks that are possibly the longest running roadworks in the country.

  1. This is actually a Historical landmark on google maps, – Witham 'Temporary' Traffic Lights
    When they do get replaced, maybe they need a little memorial.

  2. It's cost over 1 million quid for 10 years for these lights to be there!!?? I'm classed as a skilled worker!! and I don't earn anything like this!! I think I need to re evaluate my career!!

  3. idk if i mentioned this, but in Romania, the Deva to Oradea trunk road (DN76 which is used by the E79 European route) took more than 10 years to be rebuilt from 1960s standards to modern day standards… my family used to take this road oftenly when we went to Oradea and it would provide a free massage before we got to the Băile Felix thermal resort which we would oftenly visit.

  4. I live in Witham, moved here 5 years ago. These lights are honestly a nightmare. I use this slip road for work every day, and unless some guy is being paid to sit there in a van to manually change them (yes that is happening every weekday) then they are just always red. There have been discussions about making it one way and telling the dog grooming business to just use the A12 and come back, its about a 2 minute journey as the junctions are very close, but nothing happened. In 5 years I've only ever seen one car come the other way. I'm glad it's getting this form of attention now, all of the residents that live here are fed up.. Thank you for the video, next time you're in Sh*tham I'll make you a cup of tea.

  5. Meanwhile the Chinese build whole bridges overnight and whole hospitals in under a week. That’s not a joke. Look it up.

  6. Thanks for exposing all these DoT / council F-ups. Maybe they'll be embarrassed into fixing them? Not much else seems to motivate them.

  7. … Not to mention the cost of replacing the batteries in those lights every few weeks. I'm sure it would have been cheaper to run mains power to the lights from a nearby street light pole, but I guess that would put someone out of pocket… 😢

  8. Just change the law so that any temporary traffic light installation can only be granted provided the defect is worked on in 24/7 shifts until complete.

  9. These construction companies need to go and watch some YouTube videos on how the Roman Legions constructed roads.

  10. Ah yes. About as temporary as those horrible, draughty, "temporary" prefab classrooms my old secondary school is still using to this day. I'm told they were put up in 2006, so they'll be nearing their 20th anniversary soon enough

  11. giant pothole in the middle of the traffic lights aswel
    it’s not a red tape thing mate, just too busy spending the budget on everything but what it’s supposed to be spent on.
