One of our regular computer-savy gurnites seems to be in the know, he contributes the following article with the potential of a unique solution to problems that the new traffic lights could cause:
"A computer model has found that it is indeed possible to sequence all the new traffic lights planned for Nairn giving a journey time through Nairn to Sainsbury’s of only 4.7 minutes. The bad news is that the random pedestrians pressing buttons on the crossings completely screw this idea, and at peak times the journey could be as much as 45.7 minutes or longer.
I proposed that this new road sign be erected at Sandown."
