Turning Off Traffic Lights
It has been proposed that in certain areas councils should turn off their traffic lights at certain times of the day.
This is currently being tested in Ealing:
"The council hopes the move will see drivers learn to co-operate and cross junctions on a first come first served basis.
It came up with the idea after the lights failed one day at a busy junction and the traffic flowed more smoothly than before."
