RE, Controversial new Darwen traffic lights could be axed
Charts and graphs indicated that the average time for a vehicle to complete that journey at peak times in the morning and afternoon was between six and eight minutes either way.
Absolute rubbish. It can take that long in normal traffic during the day, never mind at peak time. I can walk from Hawkshaw Avenue to the Co-op at peak time and cars are backed up all the way to Lynwood. I can collect my Telegraph and be almost home before the traffic passes me on the way into Darwen.
